The transition is now

As ecosystems degrade at an unprecedented rate, we realize that humans are confusing means with ends, money with wealth, economic growth with well-being. How can we harness the economy to serve the common good so that it operates within planetary boundaries? Where do we begin to transform a system that has institutionalized greed?

Through contact with citizens from all walks of life, Laure Waridel charts the paths for a real transition toward an ecological and social economy. Her observation is clear: the solutions are already here, within our reach. The author identifies the key areas that enable us to invest differently, move toward zero waste, eat differently, inhabit the territory intelligently, and mobilize by all means. She highlights new paradigms that are transforming the world by focusing on creating connections between humans and with nature, the nature we inhabit and that inhabits us just as much. We then see that it is possible to create a wealth unknown to finance: a wealth that does not ruin the foundations of life on Earth.

With The Transition Is Now, Laure Waridel shows us that everything is still possible. She proves that we all have an important role to play, regardless of our place in society.

It is up to us to choose today what tomorrow will be.
