Entropia: Life Beyond Industrial Civilisation

Product Information

It was in this very simplicity of living that they discovered a new consciousness and an unimagined existential wealth. Something had changed in Mortimer, as if he had drawn a line under some of his troubles, somehow containing and controlling them, even if he had not yet solved them. But he felt that he was getting ahead of himself here, talking of such gloomy results before he had even discussed his methodology.

If you only get a chance to read a part of this book, you will be changed—somewhere—and will have done the world a huge service. His entire value system, in which he had felt so safe and secure, was suddenly turned upside down and inside out, causing Flynn to experience a profound crisis of conscience from which he would never fully recover. Although Elizabeth respectfully admitted that she found all the talk about suicide unnecessary and a bit misguided, she was quite aware that her husband had plunged deep into some perennial human questions and that his internal struggles were very real. Accordingly, she considered the idea of creating a small island community that would seek to live within nature’s limits to be a fascinating and potentially important social experiment, one that would receive her unconditional support.AVG never saw ET as an threat, What i would like is an update to the tracker, it hasn't been updated for idk how long and could use a new version. This book has just been published in French, with a foreword by Serge Latouche, so to mark this occasion I’m publishing the introduction to Entropia below (in English). In other words, he had no interest in creating some temporary, artificial utopia that was dependent on his wealth or which could not be sustained over the long term due to its impact on nature. No matter how heavy the burden of freedom might be, the poets knew that the burden would always be preferable to the chains from which it arose.

A result of hard work, a small amount of luck, and an untroubled proclivity toward under-handed business practices, by the time Mortimer Flynn was forty he had become one of the richest and most powerful men in America. i find it very interesting to see the results like 100 discoveries all together, i love to visit it again. Overflowing with insight and beautifully written, Entropia unveils the radical implications of moving beyond fossil fuels.

By the time the Isle was ready to be inhabited there were approximately seventeen hundred selected individuals from every ethnic, cultural, academic, and artistic background imaginable, all ready and willing to take up residency in Entropia at a moment’s notice.
