In order to get more accurate results, our search has the following Google-Type search functionality:
If you use '+' in front of a word, then that word will be present in the search results.
ex: Harry +Potter will return results with the word 'Potter'.
If you use '-' in front of a word, then that word will be absent in the search results.
ex: Harry -Potter will return results without the word 'Potter'.
If you use 'AND' between two words, then both of those words will be present in the search results.
ex: Harry AND Potter will return results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
If you use 'OR' between two words, then bth of those words may or may not be present in the search results.
ex: Harry OR Potter will return results with just 'Harry', results with just 'Potter' and results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
If you use 'NOT' before a word, then that word will be absent in the search results.
ex: Harry NOT Potter will return results without the word 'Potter'.
Placing '""' around words will perform a phrase search. The search results will contain those words in that order.
ex: "Harry Potter" will return any results with 'Harry Potter' in them, but not 'Potter Harry'.
Using '*' in a word will perform a wildcard search. The '*' signifies any number of characters. Searches can not start with a wildcard.
ex: Pot*er will return results with words starting with 'Pot' and ending in 'er'. In this case, 'Potter' will be a match.
Money talks, but it doesn't always tell the truth ...
Although it has generated riches for billions, industrial capitalism is underwritten by a planetary pyramid scheme. In the global equivalent of selling the furniture to pay the rent, we are destroying natural assets and calling the result 'income' while failing to account for the corresponding decline in underlying wealth.
Investment banker Justyn Walsh argues that this failure to properly value the natural world is more than just a glitch in the system, but in many ways is the system - one enabling a 'cowboy economy' that relentlessly rolls forward to new frontiers of exploitation, and benefits those who can capture the greatest bounty from nature regardless of wider costs.
As the planet's life support systems increasingly need to be placed on life support themselves, a new story is needed. Stark in its warnings but hopeful in its prescriptions, Eating the Earth is an entertaining and accessible explanation of why we must live off nature's dividends rather than eat into its capital.
