Sustainability Blueprint
Practical Climate Adaptation Actions for You, Your Family, and Your Community
In this inspiring book, Kim Fournier offers a ground-breaking solution to the two major challenges threatening humanity and the planet: the climate crisis and the frequency and magnitude of disasters. Her practical and comprehensive approach to a sustainable way forward, by improving self-reliance, offers hope and optimism.
Kim explains why self-reliance is the cornerstone of foundational change and the key to our future: it reduces our carbon footprint and fosters a sustainable lifestyle—now and into the future—while improving our health and protecting our families and livelihoods from disasters. She then guides readers through a progressive, three-phased blueprint from survival to self-sufficiency to sustainability. In your hands is a doable action plan—a bridge to resilient communities and a sustainable future.
Turning things around now will define life for generations and become our legacy.
