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.

We have to have an idea of what we want the future to be in order to build it, and we have to have joy to maintain the will to build it.
