Book synopsis

This book explains how income growth and better environmental qualities go hand in hand and reviews the drivers and barriers to sustainable innovation on the basis of real-life cases. It discusses why innovation-based income growth reduces environmental impacts and how the huge global markets for sustainable innovation are currently hampered by protectionist policies. Subsequently, diverse sustainable innovators are presented in ascending order of the complexity of interactions between innovators and stakeholders. The book also shows how technology suppliers develop four different patterns of sanitation, each with its own pros and cons for the specific community's needs and conditions. It explains how project developers make innovations in office systems, including socially beneficial ones that do away with the need to commute. The book also discusses policies that invest in education, skills, knowledge and know-how exchange, but instead abolish pervert subventions of vested interests create conditions for sustainable development.§§The book will benefit students, scholars, entrepreneurs, managers and policy makers who seek deeper knowledge about making our world more sustainable.§§
