Cradle to Cradle by Michael Braungart
Shows how we can mimic nature's model to our commercial and environmental advantage, demonstrating how products can be designed as biological and technical nutrients that can continually circulate as pure and valuable materials, eradicating the need to 'recycle' - really downcycle - products into low-grade materials and uses.
