Ho-ping--food for Everyone
Abstract: Sufficient food is available to provide everyone on earth with a nutritionally balanced diet. A document on strategies takes a "design science" approach to food problems; this approach views interrelationships of economic and social problems from a global scope and attempts to solve them with systematic alternative approaches. Although the major focus is on food and the world, other factors such as energy, health, education, transportation and economics are considered. Food sources and food distribution are examined. Topics such as aquaculture, leaf protein, new foods etc., are described generally. Advantages, disadvantages and steps for further development are listed for each topic. Suggestions on ways individuals and groups can contribute to solving local and world food problems on asmall scale are given. Numerous charts and tables reinforce statements. References follow each chapter. (rkm).
Designs for a World that Works for All
Hundreds of young people from five continents and 40 countries have gathered each summer from 2005 to 2020 and worked extraordinarily hard to understand, and even harder to design solutions for, the most pressing problems facing the world. This book presents their solutions and strategies for eliminating the basic human need and environmental problems-the same solutions they presented at the United Nations at the conclusion of each Global Solutions Lab. Volume III contains solutions for climate for all life.

This impulse is illustrated by focusing on Rachel Carson, Buckminster Fuller, Martin Luther King Jr., Abraham Maslow, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, and the Esalen Institute.
