Much of One with Nineveh is an examination of possible solutions to the problems created by too many people for the planet to sustain, too much consumption by the well-off, and maldistribution of power. So, having defined the human predicament, we?ll crawl out on some shaky limbs. We?ll suggest measures, some of them radical, that might allow humanity in general, and the world?s sole remaining superpower in particular, to alter course and work toward achieving a sustainable world. Our globalizing civilization urgently needs to explore ways of reorganizing societies, even without assurance that the steps taken will be successful. Dealing with population, consumption, and power will not be easy. But each day that we do nothing forecloses options for creating a better future, for avoiding Nineveh-like ecological suicide in our time. We see no choice but to attempt the possible rather than accept the unacceptable.
