ONE PLANET IS ENOUGH - RUNE WESTERGÅRD GEBUNDEN

The present book offers a compelling sketch of how technological advances have shaped
humankind's evolution and how they can unlock ways to combat climate change and environmental
threats. It also reveals new perspectives on climate change and sustainable development by
harnessing technology.Given today's conditions  only a homeless vegan could achieve a
sustainable ecological footprint. In reality  it would be impossible  and even destructive  to
attempt to save the planet by discontinuing consumption. It would disrupt evolution and
threaten the driving forces of the technology that is our hope for combating climate change and
environmental threats in the future.This is the opinion of Rune Westergård  engineer 
entrepreneur  and environmental debater  with several decades of experience from the field of
environmental and energy technology. He challenges many established truths on consumption and
sustainability and demonstrates how and why they are flawed. From his point of view  both
continued global growth and increased welfare are entirely possible within the ecological
limitations of our planet. Once we learn to put technology to our best advantage  one planet
will be enough.
