Beyond the typical surveys of immediate threats, \u003cem\u003eUncommon Sense\u003c\/em\u003e delves instead into the shortcomings of the human mind for dealing with such big-picture, long-term problems as climate change, biodiversity loss, and the overcrowding of Earth by people, products, and pollutants. Only by acknowledging and exploring these shortcomings do we have a chance to correct them and work our way back onto sustainable footing, before it's too late for millions of people, thousands of species, and hundreds of cultures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Seidel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1732993319\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781732993310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steady State Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/19\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.33d","brand":"Peter Seidel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046207320319,"sku":"9781732993310","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d1108fb9-2fca-4a48-a4f5-a37b7146bb0f.jpg?v=1684983261","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/uncommon-sense-peter-seidel-9781732993310","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
