Unveiling Hope in Crisis: Tackling the Roots of Our Global Challenges

 

From droughts and floods to wildfires, poverty, and climate change, humanity is confronting escalating crises that challenge our social, economic, and environmental stability. Yet, as Sarah Savory reveals in her groundbreaking new book, these are not isolated problems—they are interconnected symptoms of a deeper issue: the failure of conventional management to bring us into balance with our life-supporting environment.

 

Drawing from innovative ecological discoveries and decades of practical insight, this book offers a transformative approach to understanding and addressing the root causes of global instability. Through clear and actionable insights, Sarah empowers readers of all ages to not only understand the mechanisms driving environmental degradation but also implement scalable solutions to restore balance and build resilience.

 

Learning Outcomes/Objectives – what will students gain from this workbook?

 

·       A clear understanding of what people manage vs what we produce and that our individual and collective social and economic stability is connected to, and depends entirely on, environmental health. 

 

·       An understanding of why our management is causing a consistent decline in our social and economic stability.

 

·       Learn to make decisions in a way that guarantees an increase in our individual and collective social, economic and environmental stability. 

 

·       Understand the importance of choosing the right actions, practices and policies for whatever unique social, economic and environmental circumstances the action will impact. 

 

·       Understand the impact of (and urgent need for change) in the way we decide our actions at an organisational level which is where we manage ourselves, our economies and our environment on a huge scale through impersonal policy decisions.

 

·       Knowledge of Earth’s four ecosystem processes and how they function because these are the foundation which sustains all human endeavour – all civilisations, all economies and all life.

 

·       Understand the mounting symptoms of global desertification and how it causes the climate to change.

 

·       Gain new insight into how and why Earth’s different environments respond completely differently to rest at either end of the brittleness scale.

 

·       An understanding of our current environmental-management tools and an introduction to a new (biological) tool that we can use to help reverse the desertification of the world’s brittle environments.

 

This new approach to decision-making also provides many benefits to our personal lives:

 

·       It guarantees our choices align with what truly matters to us.

·       Ensures both personal and professional growth.

·       Helps us to set boundaries.

·       Strengthens friendships and relationships.

·       Helps to prevent and resolve conflict.

·       Makes career decisions easier.

·       Strengthens family, community and cultural values.

·       And unites people beyond their personal differences towards a common environmental ethic.

 

The knowledge in this workbook empowers decision-makers to always find the best possible action for their own unique circumstances at any given time.
