| 520 | 1 | |a "The Ecology of Hope is a remarkably upbeat account of a number of communities where collaboration among different factions and interest groups has led to breakthrough consensus on plans for achieving sustainability. The authors reveal the hopeful trend toward unanimous agreement on difficult local resource issues in forestry, rangeland, watershed and fisheries management in which citizens, government, business and even one-time foes form exciting collaborative partnerships." "The Ecology of Hope recounts the stories of nine communities helping to blaze this new trail located as far apart as the Maine and Virginia coasts, Tennessee, Wisconsin, California and the southwest. The authors weigh what has worked and what has not, and trace hopeful routes toward sustainable resource management applicable to communities everywhere."--Jacket. | |
