Opis

The Business of Greening, first published in 2000, debates the relationship between business and greening, and the future form this relationship could take. The book gives voice to industrial actors - employees, employers, managers, technical specialists, regulators - in the context of their organizations, within industrial sectors or as part of wider institution regimes. This title will be of particular interest to students and researchers of environmental and business studies, and to those who shape environmental policy in government and industry.
