Regenerative Design for Sustainable Development by John Tillman Lyle

200 years of global industrialization has created unprecedented human wealth, however the system that has created that wealth is based on a one-way flow of materials and energy (from source through consumption to waste) that has pushed the Earth to the brink of environmental crisis. This book provides methods for reversing these trends, in practical, realistic ways. It examines the use of energy, water, land and building design, and presents ways to create regenerative alternatives to consumptive practices.
