A manifesto for a radically different philosophy and practice of manufacture and environmentalism"Reduce, reuse, recycle" urge environmentalists; in other words, do more with less in order to minimize damage. As William McDonough and Michael Braungart argue in their provocative, visionary book, however, this approach perpetuates a one-way, "cradle to grave" manufacturing model that dates to the Industrial Revolution and casts off as much as 90 percent of the materials it uses as waste, much of it toxic. Why not challenge the notion that human industry must inevitably damage the natural world, they ask.In fact, why not take nature itself as our model? A tree produces thousands of blossoms in order to create another tree, yet we do not consider its abundance wasteful but safe, beautiful, and highly effective; hence, "waste equals food" is the first principle the book sets forth. Products might be designed so that, after their useful life, they provide nourishment for something new-either as "biological nutrients" that safely re-enter the environment or as "technical nutrients" that circulate within closed-loop industrial cycles, without being "downcycled" into low-grade uses (as most "recyclables" now are).Elaborating their principles from experience (re)designing everything from carpeting to corporate campuses, the authors make an exciting and viable case for change.

Ce manifeste co-écrit par Michael Braungart, chimiste et enseignant en ingéniérie allemand, et William McDonough, architecte et designer, a été publié pour la première fois en 2002. Depuis, le concept d'éco-efficacité s'impose et s'applique. "Une fois que vous avez compris comment le processus de destruction se met en place [...] soit vous vous retrouvez impliqué dans une stratégie de tragédie, soit vous vous donnez les moyens de concevoir et de mettre en oeuvre une politique du changement.", chaque individu averti ne pourra que pratiquer les 4 "R" : réduire, réutiliser, recycler et réguler, devenir un autochtone, respecter la diversité, pour le bien de la planète. Présentation de l'éditeur : " Ô lecteur, dévore ce livre ! " souhaitent en secret la plupart des auteurs, et ceux de l'ouvrage que vous tenez entre vos mains ne dérogent pas à la règle, à ceci près que pour eux, la formule ne s'entend pas uniquement au sens figuré ! Car au-delà du fait que Michael Braungart et William McDonough espèrent que cet essai sera lu d'un trait par un lecteur passionné par le sujet, ils espèrent tout autant qu'un jour, le plus tôt possible, ce livre, comme toute production humaine, pourra littéralement être mangé, ou tout du moins digéré, sous forme biologique ou technologique. En effet, les deux auteurs de Cradle to Cradle, entendez du Berceau au Berceau - et non plus du berceau à la tombe ! - militent depuis plusieurs années pour une " éco-efficacité " qui ne mettrait plus la croissance économique et l'écologie dos-à-dos : plutôt que de chercher à réduire notre consommation, créons un modèle industriel basé sur une sorte de compostage appliqué à tous les objets, imitant ainsi l'équilibre des écosystèmes naturels. Loin des habituels discours catastrophistes sur l'avenir de notre planète, Cradle to Cradle propose des solutions concrètes qui peuvent faire de nos déchets d'aujourd'hui nos ressources de demain. Depuis sa parution initiale en américain, Cradle to Cradle a été traduit en plusieurs langues.

Reduce, reuse, recycle' urge environmentalists; in other words, do more with less in order to minimize damage. But as architect William McDonough and chemist Michael Braungart point out in this provocative, visionary book, this approach only perpetuates the one-way, 'cradle to grave' manufacturing model, dating to the Industrial Revolution, that creates such fantastic amounts of waste and pollution in the first place. Why not challenge the belief that human industry must damage the natural world? In fact, why not take nature itself as our model for making things? A tree produces thousands of blossoms in order to create another tree, yet we consider its abundance not wasteful but safe, beautiful and highly effective. Waste equals food. Guided by this principle, McDonough and Braungart explain how products can be designed from the outset so that, after their useful lives, they will provide nourishment for something new - continually circulating as pure and viable materials within a 'cradle to cradle' model. Drawing on their experience in redesigning everything from carpeting to corporate campuses, McDonough and Braungart make an exciting and viable case for putting eco-effectiveness into practice, and show how anyone involved in making anything can begin to do so as well.
