    Smaller Cities in a Shrinking World: Learning to Thrive without Growth by Alan Mallach

    Smaller Cities in a Shrinking World: Learning to Thrive without Growth by Alan Mallach

    Smaller Cities in a Shrinking World: Learning to Thrive without Growth by Alan Mallach.  Published by Island Press in 2022.

    More is never enough. Have we reached the balance of a sustainable human population that affords us a comfortable and ecologically sustainable life style in harmony with the Earth? What does that economy and city look like? How does it function?  These and many other practical questions - and answers -  is the thesis of this book.

    Join me in conversation with Alan to understand the data about the human population and how this affects all of us from small towns to big cities. How did COVID affect our towns and the opportunities and challenges that accompany it.

    Maybe a smaller human population isn't such a bad thing but we have to plan for it. The old saying is - "we never plan to fail but we fail to plan" applies here. And, Alan helps us to understand and start the conversation with our local governments to being this process. Nothing - rarely - happens over night. You'll find in this book Alan has half cuppa coffee full outlook for humanity. 

    If you want to have a community to enjoy in the future that is affordable and a joy to live in, take this book to your next county commission meeting. If not you or me, then who?
