Designing Tomorrow's World Today: How to Thrive in the Next Economy

John Thackara visits the museum to talk about his practical, optimistic new book, ‘How to Thrive in the Next Economy’. Aiming to reignite mainstream discussions about sustainability in both theory and practice, Thackara draws on real world examples to argue that it is possible to live a rich and fulfilling life based on stewardship rather than exploitation of the natural environment. In the eagerness to find big solutions to global challenges, is the creativity generated when people work together and in harmony with the world around them too often ignored? Joining him to debate the future of sustainability will be Justin McGuirk, Chief Curator of the museum and author of Verso’s Radical Cities.
