the author presents 25 case studies on sustainable development in the United States, showcasing the efforts of "eco-pioneers" in diverse settings from inner cities to rural communities to grow food, build houses, treat wastes, and generate power in sustainable ways. The wide variety of examples suggest there is much more to environmentalism than turning out the lights and recycling -- the overarching problems are societal, not material, and Eco-Pioneers indirectly proves the two are intertwined.
