Description

This is a remarkably upbeat account of a number of communities where collaboration among different factions and interest groups has led to a breakthrough consensus on plans for achieving sustainability. The author reveals 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. - from Amzon
