Thinking Toward Survival

About the Book

The clock approaches midnight. We humans have created a scary scenario for

ourselves with

Climate change * and other ecosystem failures

* Population growth and consumption that exceeds Earth’s carrying capacity

* Out-of-control technologies and pollution

* Ancient habits of war + Doomsday weapons + depleting resources + nationalism

What we need is a whole new way of thinking. From protecting our grey matter, to

changing 300-year-old paradigms, from self-reliance to trillion-dollar transitions,

from how we raise our children to how to tame the corporations, Koonce offers

potential solutions such as

* Change our universities

* Develop species-consciousness

* Decentralize

* Look for creative ideas and models across the world Humanity has what it takes

to survive. There’s no need to despair. But there is a burning need to get started

on the transformation.
