Those with the influence to effect global change increasingly see commodifying nature as the only way to do so.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracing the intricate connections between financial power, economic injustice and ecological crisis, Adrienne Buller examines the biases, myopic economism and market-centric thinking that undermine our ability to secure a future where all life can flourish. From the false allure of 'sustainable finance' to the creeping commodification of nature, Buller unravels the logic of a global response to environmental crisis based on creating new opportunities for profit, showing it to be at best a distraction, and at worst a fatal deception. Both honest and optimistic, The Value of a Whale asks us - in the face of an unprecedented crisis - what we really value.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdrienne Buller is a Senior Fellow at Common Wealth, a progressive think tank focused on building a democratic economy.
