State of the World 2004 takes a fresh look at the trends that have put the global economy on a collision course with the Earth's ecosystems.

Published annually in 28 languages, each edition draws on the breadth of expertise of Worldwatch's award-winning team of writers and researchers. State of the World is relied upon by national governments, UN agencies, development workers and law-makers for its authoritative and up-to-the-minute analysis and information.
