‘Opens our eyes to how the world is changing.’ Tim Marshall, author of Prisoners of Geography
Read this to understand how the global economy is going green – and how it will affect your wallet
The world is changing fast. Money is pouring into the green revolution as it sweeps across our globe. This isn’t just economics – it’s Environomics.
Across industries such as energy, food, fashion, technology, manufacturing and finance, businesses are innovating; governments are taking action; technology is advancing; commercial opportunities are emerging; and our long-formed consumer habits are shifting – sometimes at a dizzying pace.
But what exactly is happening, how quickly, who is driving it all – and what does it mean for us?
In this fast-paced and eye-opening book, award-winning broadcaster and economist Dharshini David follows the course of an average day to tell the real story of the green developments taking place all around us, from the clothing we wear and the food we eat to the way we consume energy.
Full of surprising facts and new perspectives, this book shows that what we do now will affect our everyday lives for decades to come. Economics helps us to understand our world. Environomics is going to shape our future.
Environomics follows the course of an average day to explore the green economic changes, challenges and opportunities that face us all.
· If you’ve ever wondered what green issues really mean for your day-to-day life, this book is for you.
