The Restoration Economy

by Storm Cunningham

The Restoration Economy Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The Restoration Economy chronicles the previously undocumented trillion-dollar global industry that is revitalizing our natural and man-made environments. Storm Cunningham explores the rapid rise of restorative development, details how the information age is catalyzing the transition from development to restoration, and demonstrates how restoration is ?greening? residential, commercial, and public construction. A guide to this new economy for designers, urban planners, businesspeople, environmentalists, students, and investors, the book's entertaining blend of business, science, and economics shows that those working to conserve the natural environment and those working to revitalize the built environment are actually part of the same restoration economy, and inspires business and government leaders to focus resources on this new economic sector.

Book News Annotation:

Consultant Cunningham reveals the massive profits companies can make cleaning up the mess left by the previous generation of companies seeking massive profits. Perhaps they too can plant the seeds of future prosperity.
