Frontiers of sustainability

by Roger C. Dower

Cover of Frontiers of sustainability

In Frontiers of Sustainability, researchers at the World Resources Institute (WRI) present the first practical vision of a sustainable future for the United States and the steps needed to get there. The book examines environmental performance and trends in four key economic sectors: agriculture, electricity generation, transportation, and forestry. The authors map out and explore the implications of potentially dangerous trends and developments, and they detail methods for reducing or managing emergent threats.
