About this title

Synopsis

The prospect of a transition to Net Zero by 2050 has profound implications for businesses in various industries worldwide. The endeavour necessitates significant changes in production methods, resource allocation, and operational strategies across sectors, compelling businesses to adapt quickly.

In Examining Net Zero: Creating Solutions for a Greener Society and Sustainable Economic Growth, authors delve into economic and political issues tied to climate change and the transition to sustainable systems. They discuss frameworks like ‘Just Transition,’ which ensures fairness in the shift to a sustainable economy for all stakeholders, including workers, communities, and regions affected by shifts towards sustainability and away from industries contributing to environmental degradation. The collection includes seven detailed case studies on corporate environmental initiatives, addressing challenges and progress towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Authors also cover topics such as the economics and politics of green initiatives, transportation challenges, retrofitting accommodations, the role of localism, and the issues raised by a finite ecology in the face of perpetual economic growth. Through diverse perspectives, the collection offers a comprehensive understanding of climate change and pathways to sustainability.

This edited collection appeals to diverse audiences interested in climate change and sustainability. It offers insights for business leaders navigating the transition to Net Zero by 2050, policymakers seeking practical solutions, researchers analysing empirical evidence, and educators and students exploring the intersection of environmental challenges with economic and societal dynamics.
