Description
Low Carbon Communities: Imaginative Approaches to Combating Climate Change Locally By Michael Peters, Shane Fudge and Tim Jackson This timely volume explores the potential of community-based action in tackling climate change. It examines both the benefits and limitations of this approach, considering its implications for social organization and policy-making. The book brings together theoretical and practical perspectives on community action, shedding new light on how to establish effective engagement with local communities. Through a diverse range of models and case studies, the authors provide fresh conceptual insights into the opportunities and challenges of community-led initiatives. This book will be of interest to academic researchers and policymakers seeking to understand and influence the behaviours and practices of energy consumers in their local areas.
