Combating offshoring requires a powerful social force. A global low carbon civil society needs to be developed so as to bring about reshoring in and across many different societies. The aim of this civil society must be to ensure that much that has been offshored should "go back onshore, reattached to the body of society, in league with nature, where freedom must move people together, not push them apart".
