Chris Kennedy: ‘MALTHUS ENIGMA’

Just published my second book this year: www.e-elgar.com/shop/gbp/adv.... Unlike 'Malthus Enigma', which is for a general reader, my new book is more technical. It draws upon 30 years experience advising governments and international institutions on climate and sustainability solutions.

I loved this interview about the MALTHUS ENIGMA on Robert Colangelo's Green Sense Show.
