Kurt Vonnegut has in his last book "A Man Without a Country," a beautiful poem and at the same time critical statement to our planet. It concludes with these closing lines:
When the last living thing has died on account of us, how poetical it would be if Earth could say, in a voice floating up perhaps from the floor of the Grand Canyon, "It is done." People did not like it here.
"Remaking the Way We Make Things" by William McDonough & Michael Braungart is certainly one of the books available that made a BIG impact on my everyday life and realizing how much can be done. The book itself is printed on "synthetic paper" - a new and very innovative way to print. This book can also be broken down and circulated infinitely. Check out your local bookstore.
