The Restoration Economy chronicles the previously undocumented trillion-dollar global industry that is revitalizing our natural and man-made environments. Storm Cunningham explores the rapid rise of restorative development, details how the information age is catalyzing the transition from development to restoration, and demonstrates how restoration is ""greening"" residential, commercial, and public construction. The book is an entertaining blend of business, science, and economics designed to help readers understand the restoration economy and to inspire business and government leaders to focus resources on this new economic sector.
