better world – that small scale initiatives are happening on a large scale.

initiatives are united around a common cause: rebuilding more democratic,
human scale, ecological and local economies – the foundation of an
‘economics of happiness’.

systemic economic change, including David Korten, Bill McKibben, Vandana
Shiva, Rob Hopkins, Richard, Heinberg, Juliet Schor, Michael Shuman and
more.
