A New Way Now -Solutions to Financial and Climate Collapse

How to create a New Way Now, a sustainable future? Financial collapse and ecological pressure will soon demand that we practice a different sort of social and economic life!

Don't despair! Despite rising population, climate change and ecological damage, it is still possible, is affordable, and we can then live more relaxed, abundant and happier lives.

This is a breakthrough book, a rare combination of ecology, community and financial understanding, with cartoons!

When finance is regulated again and made less power hungry, we can liberate vast funds for good, for healthy countryside and vibrant townships. We can minimize the inevitable climate change dramas and conserve resources and reduce hours of work a week. Stress-less!

This is an optimistic message, a future younger people can imagine. It is do-able.

Already, in villages, cooperatives and in group living and small business cooperatives everywhere, millions of people are developing models of the future. By linking these experiments with liberated finance we can create a happier, sustainable future. A New Way Now!

This is reluctantly included because readers said writers' personality was needed, but actually I think the mathematics of liberating money speaks for itself.

Dr Liz Elliott, became aware of World politics during the Vietnam War, then of the destruction of the superb East Australian forests. She began to question why money interests abused the delicate Australian environment. She worked as a doctor, land custodian and mother for 30 years, with time out as an artist and yoga teacher in New York and Bahamas. Travelling widely in Asia taught her enduring respect for rural and poor people. Casualty doctoring taught her the importance of science, stress, community and resilience for everyone.

She has been speaking, cartooning and writing about sustainable economies for 20 years. After years of activism, opposing the MAI treaty and private money creation, she met Helena Norberg-Hodge, pioneer of the Localisation movement, and began to explore solutions to our current unsustainable course.

She lives with her husband on a glorious bush and pasture farm block near beautiful Byron Bay, and keeps fit chopping woody weeds.

This is her third book; the first was cartooning classic Rock Wars!!; the second, Energy!! was ahead of its time in integrated health.

She can be contacted via her Liberating Money website, or through Local Futures.
