I’m looking for non-fiction books that make hope for the future. I’m burnt out.

I have done it all, for I don’t know, 30plus years now. From vegan cooking on the streets, protests, sit-ins, urban gardening projects, rural gardening, reforestation, so many things, from big movements to small projects, everything.

For various reasons, not all political, I’m pretty down and feel everything is doomed.

Any books that are more positive, we are making it or at least de could make it?

I would really apppreciate some recommendations. English or German.

    Same here, man!

    I can start advising for Factfulness: a book showing how our perception of geographical reality is lagging behind and quite some elements are better than we recover them to be. It starts being a bit old itself, unfortunately, since it’s from 2018, but it was a pleasurable and uplifting read.
