State of the World 2012: Moving Toward Sustainable Prosperity
Latest in flagship series offers strategies for lasting well-being.
ISBN: 978-1-61091-037-8
In
1992, governments at the Rio Earth Summit made a historic commitment to
sustainable development—an economic system that promotes the health of
both people and ecosystems. Twenty years and several summits later,
human civilization has never been closer to ecological collapse, a third
of humanity lives in poverty, and another 2 billion people are
projected to join the human race over the next 40 years. How will we
move toward sustainable prosperity equitably shared among all even as
our cities strain to provide decent jobs, housing, transportation, and
social services, and as our ecological systems decline?
To promote discussion around this vital topic at the Rio+20 U.N. Conference and beyond, State of the World 2012: Moving Toward Sustainable Prosperity showcases
creative policies and fresh approaches that are advancing sustainable
development in the twenty-first century. Chapters written by
international experts present a comprehensive look at current trends in
global economics and sustainability, a policy toolbox of clear solutions
to some of our most pressing environmental and human challenges, and a
path for reforming economic institutions to promote both ecological
health and prosperity.
Moving Toward Sustainable Prosperity is the latest publication in the Worldwatch Institute’s flagship State of the World
series, which remains the most recognized and authoritative resource
for research and policy solutions on critical global issues. State of the World 2012
builds on three decades of experience to offer a clear, pragmatic look
at the current state of global ecological systems and the economic
forces that are reshaping them—and how we can craft more-sustainable and
equitable economies in the future.

About State of the World
Worldwatch's flagship publication, State of the World, has
educated a broad audience of students, journalists, policymakers, and
concerned citizens about trends in sustainable development for a quarter
century. The book has been published in 36 languages, and over the
years it has authoritatively assessed issues ranging from population,
energy, and agriculture to materials use, health, and trade policy.
Topics are covered from a global perspective, with an emphasis on
innovation and problem-solving. State of the World is recognized
as a classic of environmental literature, having attracted luminaries
from Kofi Annan to Mikhail Gorbachev to write forewords for the book.
News media, policymakers, and NGOs worldwide cite the book for its
cutting-edge analysis, reliability, and careful documentation of its
arguments, all marshaled to speed the global transition to a sustainable
world.
Beginning this year, our annual State of the World report will
be published by Island Press, and available for purchase on both the
Worldwatch and Island Press websites and through multiple digital and
print distribution channels.
