Decoupling Growth? A Book Review of Cents Sustainability: Securing Our Common Future by Decoupling Economic Growth from Environmental Pressures (2010)

摘要

Cents and Sustainability, the 2007 work by Michael Smith, Karlson Hargroves, and Cheryl Desha, was conceived as a twenty-year anniversary response to the publication of Our Common Future, the Bruntland Report of 1987. While this book might not convert environmental skeptics or satisfy professors looking for a supplementary textbook, the authors present an impressive global survey of local and regional policy responses to the formidable environmental challenges facing society.
