The Restoration Economy

ebook
“A landmark work . . . I was relieved to see that there is a good and reasonable solution to the ruinous policies of unbridled new development.” —Mark Stewart, CEO, iAccess Communications 
 
The Restoration Economy reveals the previously undocumented trillion-dollar global industries that are restoring our natural and manmade environments. Restorative development is rapidly overtaking new development because we are running out of things to develop. Most natural areas are already either farmed or degraded, and cities have built all the way to their borders. However, there is no lack of things to redevelop and restore. Storm Cunningham surveys the wide range of restoration industries and points out the connections among them. He shows, for example, how the restoration of a river ecosystem can have a major impact on the commercial success of a redeveloped historic urban waterfront. Written for a broad range of audiences, The Restoration Economy is an entertaining blend of business, science, and economics that details exciting new business and investment opportunities in this dynamic economic sector.
 
“Any companies or consultants looking for new markets must read The Restoration Economy!” —Pamela J. Gordon, CMC, President, Technology Forecasters, Inc.
 
The Restoration Economy is required reading here at Weston Solutions. It has been indispensable in helping us refocus our strategy. ”—Bill Robertson, Chairman, Weston Solutions
 
The Restoration Economy is without a doubt the most important and valuable business book I have read in many years.” —Don Pross, Urban Revitalization Planner
 
“This book is an original, a first! I profited from it greatly, and I quote from it in my speeches.” —William H. Hudnut III, Former Four-Term Mayor of Indianapolis
