The first quote is from Cradle to Cradle and I thought it expressed the "Next Industrial Revolution" that the book is about.
"The key is not to make the human industries and systems smaller, as efficiency advocates propound, but to design them to get bigger and better in a way that replenishes restores and nourishes the rest of the world."
The second quote that I enjoyed was from earlier in the class from the "Confronting Consumption" piece that we read. I thought the unit in the class where we talked about the North and South divide about environmentalism was very interesting.
"In global environmental policymaking arenas, it is becoming more and more difficult to ignore the fact that the overdeveloped North must restrain its consumption if it expects the underdeveloped South to embrace a more sustainable trajectory."
