The only metric that tracks how much nature we have — and how much nature we use
Ecological Footprint Managing Our Biocapacity Budget
maThis wackernagel and berT beyers our economy is running a Madoff-style Ponzi scheme with the planet; we use future resources to run the present, using more than Earth can replenish. Like any such scheme, this works for a limited time, followed by a crash.
Avoiding ecological bankruptcy requires rigorous resource accounting — challenging, but doable with the right tools.
Ecological Footprint accounting, first introduced in the 1990s and continuously developed, continues to be the only metric that compares overall human demand on nature with what our planet can renew — its biocapacity — and distils this into one number: how many Earths we use. Ecological Footprint provides a complete introduction, covering:

How liberals can talk and listen to Trump supporters without blowing a fuse
Beyond Contempt How Liberals Can Communicate Across the Great Divide
erica eTelson
american poliTics has become a nasty blood sport, and both sides bear responsibility for deepening and inflaming the divide. Liberals often come across as self-righteous, condescending, and contemptuous of conservatives, an attitude that has magnified the appeal of right-wing populism. This attitude, especially when infused with classist scorn, antagonizes blue-collar conservatives and entrenches loyalty to Trump.
In Beyond Contempt, Erica Etelson shows how liberal disdain strengthens Trump’s hand and how liberals can instead communicate respectfully and effectively across the political divide. Using Powerful Non-Defensive Communication,™ liberals can express themselves in ways that inspire open-minded consideration rather than defensive rejection. Providing detailed instruction and dozens of examples of questions and statements on hot-button topics, Beyond Contempt shows how to engage in productive dialogue that defuses hostility, builds trust, opens hearts and minds, and — just maybe — discovers common ground.
Beyond Contempt is the must-have guide for anyone who has long wished Cultural Critique that political discussions, and Thanksgiving dinner, didn’t end in frustration 6 x 9” / 208 Pages and anger.

Change the story, change the future – merging science and Indigenous knowledge to steer us towards a more benign Anthropocene Changing Tides An Ecologist’s Journey to Make Peace with the Anthropocene
alejandro Frid as humaniTy marches on, causing mass extinctions and destabilizing the climate, the future of Earth will reflect the stories that Homo sapiens decides to jettison or accept into our collective identity. At this pivotal moment in history, the most important story we can tell ourselves is that humans are not inherently destructive.
Alejandro Frid tackles the big questions: who, or what, represents our essential selves, and what stories might allow us to shift the collective psyche of industrial civilization in time to avert the worst of the climate and biodiversity crises?
In seeking the answers, Frid draws from personal experience and that of Indigenous colleagues, finding a glimmer of hope in Indigenous cultures that, despite the ravages of colonialism, have for thousands of years developed intentional and socially complex practices for resource management that epitomize sustainability. Ultimately, Frid argues, merging scientific perspectives with Indigenous knowledge might just help us change the stories about who we are and where we could go.

The power of the commons as a free, fair system of provisioning and governance beyond capitalism, socialism, and other -isms Free, Fair, and Alive The Insurgent Power of the Commons
david bollier, silke helFrich
From co-housing and agroecology to fisheries and open-source everything, people are increasingly using “commoning” to emancipate themselves from a predatory market-state system.
