The Green Swan is a symbol of radically better times to come, but it is also a model for exponential regenerative change that will guide us towards the goal of a sustainable future for all.
This book paints an optimistic picture of the future for both individuals and the planet, thanks to the emergence of certain 'green swans' such as environmentalism and the growth of renewable energy.
