The Necessary Revolution

The Necessary Revolution offers a toolkit with specific strategies and points of action to help change how organizations think and act. There are no "good guys" and "bad guys" - We are all responsible for our core sustainability issues: Food, water, energy, waste, and toxicity. And every one of us has to be part of the solution.

This book is an interesting and important contribution to the burgeoning literature on the implications of climate change for business. Senge and his co-authors have produced an excellent volume, which deserves to find a place on the shelves of any thoughtful manager. The book is an example of what it is about since it is both innovative and radical.

The Necessary Revolution is a call to arms, an argument to business leaders that they must rethink their approach to the environment. But the authors don't linger on the problems, focusing instead on the stories and insights of successful innovators, on creative solutions, and on practical approaches to meeting these challenges.
