Making the Good Life Last: Four Keys to Sustainable LivingMichael A Schuler, Scott Russell SandersI have worked in the field of environmental protection for my entire career. Too often folks looking for planet protection measures look for technological fixes. This book expands the conversation on how we might best attend to our planet in peril. It is a thoughtful guide which gives pertinent examples of actions people can take individually that will make a difference to sustaining our environment over the long haul. Many people give up on trying to improve the plant because they think it will involve a life full of nothing but sacrifice. Michael Schuler's book beautfully illustrates that our own lives can be more meaningful and happier when we pay attention, stay put, exercise prudence and practise patience. If more people evaluated their own lives and attended to these key steps, our human community would be much better able to address the environmental challenges that face us.
I believe to be the best we can be for the world, each of us needs to find a way to nurture and balance our physical, intellectual and spiritual needs. This book gives great examples in each of those areas. I found the last chapter, A Sustainable Code of the Soul, particularly inspiring. I believe it will serve me well as I work to maintain balance in my own life and continue to work in my chosen career path. Thanks to Michael Schuler for bringing the concept of sustainability home and into our hearts as well as our minds.
