"Sustainable development is, for government and industry at least, primarily a way of turning trees into lumber, tar into oil, and critique into consent; a way to defend the status quo of growth at any cost." —from the Introduction In Unsustainable Oil: Facts, Counterfacts and Fictions, Jon Gordon makes the case for re-evaluating the theoretical, political, and environmental issues around petroleum extraction. Doing so, he argues, will reinvigorate our understanding of the culture and the ethics of energy production in Canada. Rather than looking for better facts or better interpretations of the facts, Gordon challenges us to embrace the future after oil. Reading fiction can help us understand the cultural-ecological crisis that we inhabit. In Unsustainable Oil, using the lens of Alberta’s bituminous sands, he asks us to consider literature’s potential to open space for creative alternatives.

過去多少年的人生，你被選擇、被安排、被期待。 日復一日， 熟悉的路線，差不多的每一天。 工作應付自如，日子過得不錯， 但你很清楚，過去的熱情與幹勁，正一點一滴流失…… 這，真的是我想要的生活嗎？ 如果可以重來，我還會這樣選擇嗎？ 你想離開現狀、想換工作、想出走，找到內心熱情的所在。 等待，不會讓夢想變成現實。 人生，也不會只有這樣。 跟著書中的主角，勇敢出發，走一趟尋找生命意義的旅程。 2017全新封面暢銷改版，觸動人心再推薦 暢銷作家、《財星》五百大企業及NBA的激勵導師高登， 帶領你── 跨出這一步，開始過你真正想要的第二人生！ 其實還有機會，你，可以這樣選擇。 喬許，曾經是企業中的明日之星，如今卻失去了工作熱情。 主管給他兩週假期，好好思考還要不要留下來工作。 一位偶遇的農夫，交給喬許一顆種子，並且告訴他，只要能找到正確的地方播種，就能夠尋回讓人生旅程豐盛成功的熱情。 這顆種子，將帶著喬許、以及你我，走到什麼地方？ 看到什麼風景？得到什麼啓發？ 各界好評推薦 丁菱娟︱知名作家、創業導師 王文華︱知名作家、夢想學校創辦人 黃哲斌︱新聞工作者 詹怡宜︱TVBS新聞部總監 劉奕成︱中國信託金控研發長 （依姓氏筆畫排序） 「如果你每天意興闌珊，不知自己為何而工作，不知自己未來想成為什麼樣的人，只是日復一日重複過著同樣規律的日子，沒有快樂的感覺，其實你只是在活，不是活著。 勇於改變。告訴自己我可以有不一樣的人生，想想自己的願景，找出目標。當自己知道要去那裏，工作與生活的感受也已不一樣，熱情就是從這裡開始燃燒。 這本書讓你重新思考改變的力量，去到你想去的地方，享受自己在這世界的重要性。」──丁菱娟，知名作家／創業導師 「人生只有一次，但這一次可以從不同的高度來活。 本書主角暫時擺脫例行公事和迷惘挫折，藉一次旅程，跳到更高的層次，找到自己的「第二個人生」，然後回到工作崗位，繼續努力。我們也可以像他一樣上天下地，找出自己人生的「制高點」。」──王文華，知名作家／夢想學校創辦人 「島內移民、半農半X、育男族、中年創業、白領返鄉、海外志工……，我們身邊忽然少了幾張熟悉面孔，多了幾個傳奇故事，以及潮流名詞。 這些故事之所以動人心弦，正因他們打破歲月的線性，逸出日常的軌道，呼喚我們意識中沉埋的浪漫。因為，生活的灰燼經常掩蓋了生命的路徑，讓我們誤以為「呼吸就是活著」，誤以為驅動生命的只是數字，而非意義與熱情。 如果你如此生活著，這本書，正是一個溫柔提醒。」──黃哲斌，新聞工作者 「主角的追尋之旅其實並不戲劇化，正如同我們一般人的人生。但跟著走一趟，重新想一遍自己的使命與意義，正是給自己拉高視野的機會。 當我也在例行新聞工作中陷入主管的收視率、管理績效、甚至不平忌妒、低潮不滿時，這個故事重新提醒自己，我的使命是什麼？有沒有創造改變的能量？以及，什麼才是真正要緊的事？ 讀完之後，我感謝 神藉著這本書成為這個階段提醒我的「預兆」，讓我也能創造自己的追尋之旅。」──詹怡宜，TVBS新聞部總監
