The transformations required will be social\, technological\, and economic. Some discussion of how these might come about will be sketched out in various science fictional scenarios\, including a best-case result you can still believe in.

His works\, through the lens of an inherently political genre\, present the possibility of an alternate future to the ecological devastation created by capitalism.
