If the world keeps moving toward economic collapse, climate change, resource depletion, civil unrest, wars, famines, and other nasty things, young adults will find they can no longer live exclusively in the protected worlds of the shopping mall and the fast food stand. This book provides a mixture of story and information that motivated young adults (or anyone) can use to help them stay alive and happy during challenging times, regardless of what anyone else around them is doing (or not doing). - This is the PAPERBACK GLOBAL edition in 12-point type, revision 1.
