In contrast to the many dismal dystopian visions of our future, Guy’s book is a positive, proud ecotopian vision set in a future that shows how much we can achieve if we use our effort and our imagination to build a better world.

In this blockbuster ecotopian novel, young protagonist Patrick Wu visits a future Vancouver in the year 2032 that is brimming with innovation and hope, where the climate crisis is being tackled, the solar revolution is underway and a new cooperative economy is taking shape. But enormous danger still lurks.

Guy Dauncey's brilliant book shows there are solutions to the climate crisis that offer a future rich in opportunity and joy. All we need is to make a commitment to act.
– David Suzuki, Scientist, Environmentalist and Broadcaster

Guy Dauncey has written an imaginative tour de force, blending science, philosophy, and fiction into a delightful story about how we can and must change the world, resulting in a bright green future.
– David R. Boyd, Co-­chair of Vancouver's greenest city initiative and author of The Optimistic Environmentalist
