This book provides an internationally grounded and critical review
of grassroots sustainability enterprises, specifically focusing on
the processes that lead to their formation, the governing context
that shapes their evolution, the benefits they create and the
challenges that they face in different contexts. This is the first
internationally focused study of grassroots sustainability
enterprises that covers such a range of environmental sectors. For
the first time grassroots sustainability enterprises and their
actions and impact receive comprehensive academic analysis from the
perspective of their contribution towards more resilient
development. The book begins by defining the term and placing it in
context, looking at contemporary agendas in sustainability
innovation and enterprise, and sustainability impacts and
grassroots enterprises. It then examines a variety of grassroots
sustainability enterprises such as low impact housing in the UK,
eco-villages in Ireland, community gardening in Germany and turtle
conservation in Costa Rica. It concludes by looking ahead to the
future at governing frameworks for grassroots sustainability
enterprises and smart green clean-tech economy.
