Personal Carbon Economy
According to scientific research, even with all the Paris Climate Agreement proposals fully implemented by 2100, humanity is still far away from creating a sustainable life.

Yet the rise of the underground newspaper was equally daring and original. Thanks to advances in cheap offset printing, groups involved in antiwar, civil rights, and other social liberation issues began to spread their messages through provocatively designed newspapers and broadsheets. This vibrant new media was essential to the counterculture revolution as a whole—helping to motivate the masses and proliferate ideas. Power to the People presents more than 700 full-color images and excerpts from these ast...
