Description: This book takes a look at the concept sustainable development: what it means; how it is affected by production, consumption and globalization; how it can be measured, and what can be done to promote it. It argues that to be sustainable, development has to be based on progress in three areas at once: the economy, society and the environment.--Publisher's description.
