How the information revolution will bring about ecological reform in business

"The magazine is a secular publication. Readers, both Christian and non-Christian, may not always agree with all its conclusions. But it is an excellent catalyst for better informed thought and action. It pulls no punches yet at the same time is written with sensitivity and compassion … could be of immense help in our becoming more globally aware and responsible citizens."
- Gil Cann, editor, Working Together (published by the Australian Evangelical Alliance)
"New Internationalist is a magazine well worth reading as it respects the intelligence of its readers. It is independent, lively and properly provocative, helping to keep its readers abreast of important developments in parts of our globe that risk marginalisation. Read it!."
- Desmond M Tutu - Archbishop of Cape Town
"The New Internationalist is one of the most profound magazines."
- Anita Roddick - Founder of The Body Shop
"What motivated the founders of the New Internationalist magazine was a high idealism; a real sense that we could change things; that if people knew the facts about what was going on, then they could actually have the wherewithal to campaign and try to make the world a better place."
- Troth Wells - one of the founders of the New Internationalist cooperative

Ecological Intelligence
Knowing the Hidden Impacts of What We Buy

In this provocative book, Daniel Goleman reveals why so many products that are labeled green are a "mirage," and illuminates our wild inconsistencies in response to the ecological crisis. To date, he argues, our thinking about issues such as the environment, health hazards or child labour has focused on single problems in isolation from the rest.

Drawing on cutting-edge research, Goleman explains why we as shoppers are in the dark over the hidden impacts of the goods and services we make and consume - victims of a blackout of information about the detrimental effects of producing, shipping, packaging, distributing, and discarding the goods we buy.

But the balance of power is about to shift from seller to buyer, as a new generation of technologies informs us of the ecological facts about products at the point of purchase. This "radical transparency" will enable consumers to make smarter purchasing decisions, and will drive companies to rethink and reform their businesses. For the first time what they do will matter far more than what they say - ushering in, Goleman claims, a new age of competitive advantage.

This is an essential book for understanding the coming information revolution.
