Abstract

While concern for the natural environment continues to be widely professed, it is often unmatched by a willingness to take action. Green intentions are discouraged by the burdens that effective policies would impose. But are these burdens real or imagined, or necessarily either? If there are better ways to take action, why are they not taken? This volume addresses the challenge, as perceived, to “green and bear it”.
