Sustainable consumption is a controversial concept: politically,
socially and intellectually. Consumption drives our economies and
defines our lives; making it sustainable is an enormous and
essential challenge. The World Summit on Sustainable Development in
2002 set in place a 10-year programme of effort by national
governments to develop strategies for sustainable consumption and
production. The problem of changing consumer behaviour and making
our lives more sustainable continues to challenge opinion-formers
and policy-makers alike. This book provides a coherent synthesis of
key contributions to the literature on consumption and
sustainability, comprising a substantive collection of selected
papers and extracts from books, journals and institutional
publications. Presented with a comprehensive introductory overview,
the Reader also offers an invaluable 'route map' through the
complex intellectual terrain relevant to the pursuit of sustainable
consumption.
