Living Lightly: Travels in Post-Consumer Society

by Walter Schwarz, Dorothy Schwartz

An enthralling account of the authors’ travels across four continents among people ‘living lightly’ on the earth—more self-reliant, more neighborly, more in tune with their environment, less stressed than the majority who strive for success in the consumer economy. In Britain and Europe, Canada and the USA (New England, Philadelphia, Tennessee, Seattle), Australia, India and Japan, the authors share the lives and homes of lifestyle pioneers who believe they have created a better model for the 21st century.
