Treasures of the Earth: Need, Greed, and a Sustainable Future
Saleem H Ali
Would the world be a better place if human societies were somehow able to curb their desires for material goods? This book argues that simply disavowing consumption of materials is not likely to help in planning for a resource-scarce future, given global inequality, development imperatives and our goals for a democratic global society.
