Description
"When Cuba lost access to Soviet oil in the early 1990s, the country faced an immediate crisis, feeding the population, and an ongoing challenge; how to create a new low-energy society. Cuba transitioned from large, fossil-fuel intensive farming to small, less energy-intensive organic farms and urban gardens, and from a highly industrial society to a more sustainable one"--Back cover.
Description
