Munro, David A.

Caring for the Earth: A Strategy for Survival is a book for everybody from national leaders and the heads of industry to individual citizens. Fully illustrated in colour with photographs from around the world, this strategy offers the reader a practical guide to the principles and actions on which the future of our societies depends.; The first part of the book explains the issues of conservation and of social and economic development.

The successor to the World Conservation Strategy published in 1980, this global strategy for a sustainable society, is intended to restate current thinking about conservation and development in an informative and encouraging way, and is orientated towards practical action. It sets targets fro the changes in our lives that will move us towards a sustainable society and urges a concerted effort to make this ethic a global force in personal, national and international relations.
