Why read it?
1 author picked Life After Carbon as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I recommend this book because it focuses on a fascinating, unique, and very important topic: truly integrating urban design with nature.

From Peter's list on the nexus of energy, economics, and climate change.
