001450777 520__ $$aHumanity is overexploiting nature, we consume too much energy, too many raw materials, too much land. In short, the current economic and lifestyle patterns of mankind, especially in the West, are not sustainable. Who would disagree with this verdict? The evidence seems overwhelming: species extinction, rainforest deforestation, scarcity of raw materials, soil erosion, plastic waste, ecological footprint and, of course, climate change. But - how reliable are these indicators? Are there perhaps also other indications, positive developments? And are all these problems of the same urgency? This book gives answers: well-founded, comprehensible, to the point. It proves that the reports and headlines in the mainstream media on global ecological issues are often one-sided, exaggerated and misleading. On the basis of the relevant international reports and databases, the book gives the full picture where usually only individual, striking figures are presented. Over 70 graphic illustrations, concise summaries at the end of most chapters an easy read! The author Dr. Thomas Unnerstall is an international consultant and book author. After completing his doctorate in physics, he first worked in the Ministry of the Environment in Baden-Wurttemberg and then held top management positions in the energy industry for over 20 years. This translation of the German edition was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.
