Dalam dialog yang bersifat provokatif dan luas ruang lingkupnya ini, dua daripada pemikir yang berpengaruh ini menyarankan bahawa cuma ‘revolusi manusia’ sahajalah – perubahan asas dalam hati dan minda individu – yang dapat mendorong suatu revolusi dalam hubungan manusia dengan planet. Revolusi peringkat planet sebegini memerlukan transformasi akhlak dan kepimpinan politik, dan orientasi yang penuh harapan untuk kanak-kanak masa hadapan dan bukannya keasyikan yang terpedaya dengan dasar jangka pendek masa kini.
