Revealing, inspiring and funny. This book is a joy to romp through,
which is good, because its final chapter is the important truth we
all need to hear and understand if we are to survive this mess
we've made.—Chris Packham
Mad Max meets Laurie Lee.—Andrew Merrell, Raikes Journal
I found Manifesto enthralling, thought-provoking and I learnt so
much from it. Nor had I any idea that we had our own Archimedes
living in The Cotswolds.—Jilly Cooper
Manifesto is not just an essential read, it's highly entertaining.
Dale Vince is the UK's best known eco entrepreneur and he tells a
great story - from pitched battles with the cops as a new age
traveller to standoffs with the fossil fuel energy barons. Think
Silent Spring meets Succession. Ultimately this book calls out both
boring eco orthodoxy and unhinged 'moonshot' rhetoric instead
setting out a compelling, accessible case for radical and rapid
sustainable change.—Lucy Siegle
