Sustainable Practices: Social Theory and Climate Change

Book Overview

Climate change is widely agreed to be one of the greatest challenges facing society today. Thus far, however, efforts to promote pro-environmental behaviour have centred on typically limited understandings of individual agency, choice and change. This book shows how much more the social sciences have to offer. The expert contributors to Sustainable Practices show how a practice approach can help us understand what societal transitions towards sustainability involve, and how they might be achieved.
