In \u003cem\u003eGreen Philosophy\u003c\/em\u003e, Scruton argues that conservatism is far better suited to tackle environmental problems than either liberalism or socialism. He shows that rather than entrusting the environment to unwieldy NGOs and international committees, we must assume personal responsibility and foster local sovereignty. People must be empowered to take charge of their environment, to care for it as a home, and to affirm themselves through the kind of local associations that have been the traditional goal of conservative politics.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eOur common future is by no means assured, but as Roger Scruton clearly demonstrates in this important book, there is a path that we can take which could ensure the future safety of our planet and our species.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003ePaperback | 464 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-body1 detail-label mui-style-tgrox\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (cm):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e19.8 x 12.9 x 3.3\u003c\/span\u003e | 536g -\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 29 Jan 2013\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/strong\u003eAtlantic Books\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication City\/Country: \u003c\/strong\u003eLondon, United Kingdom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/strong\u003eEnglish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdition Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e184887202X\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9781848872028\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003eGood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA book that has been read but is in good condition.
