The Blueprint: Averting Global Collapse book is out!

Daniel Rirdan's book "The Blueprint: Averting Global Collapse" is finally out!
http://www.amazon.com/dp/1470135884/
So far the book received a good positive Kirkus review as well as it got testimonials from two very
well-known people in the field: David Suzuki and Bill McKibben! This is a very exciting and very
promising start!
"I'm offering a highly detailed, planet-wide plan that constitutes anything but light-hearted tips,"
Rirdan says. "The Blueprint is based on meticulous research and consideration, communication with
revered experts, 500 peer-reviewed articles, and copious computations and simulations, which,
together, paint the sobering picture of the future and provide guideposts for recovery. Its
immediately employable designs would redefine traditional systems, setting a new path for our
economy, technology, industry and politics."
Among other subjects, Rirdan addresses co-working renewables that can power the entire electrical
grid 24/7; a radically altered economy based on regenerative management of existing resources; and
the use of rotational, intensive grazing of livestock that "rewilds" nature. He also illustrates why
a carbon-neutral economy is inadequate at this late stage, and introduces a practical plan to
capture hundreds of billions of tons of carbon from the air. Furthermore, Rirdan calls for
augmenting disparate, outmoded government systems with one world government -- and other experts are
taking note.
From Kirkus Reviews
“Rirdan’s prescriptive nonfiction debut provides suggestions to ensure the planet’s continued
environmental health. The author sets forth his plan for salvation, ambitiously addressing every
major threat to the environment: climate change, deforestation, overfishing, wetlands drainage and
excess consumption. His scope is broader than most environmentalist writers, including Al Gore in
his seminal book on climate change....Rirdan’s thorough, readable treatment of the questions society
must confront makes this book an essential addition to any environmentalist’s reading list.”
“Books and websites may tout “ten easy ways to save the planet”....The way to avoid the catastrophe
that confronts us is not going to be easy or simple, but urgently imperative. For all who care about
the future for our children and our species, Rirdan’s book must be read so we can follow his
recommendations. We have no choice and time is terrifyingly short.” —David Suzuki, Ph.D.,
award-winning scientist and environmentalist author
“This book is filled with interesting ideas—it will get you thinking in new directions!” —Bill
McKibben, author of Eaarth, founder of 350.org
