Hybrid Paradox of Sustainability
Über dieses E-Book
Drawing on historical evolution, policy dilemmas, and real-world case studies, Hybrid Paradox of Sustainability critically examines the tensions between economic incentives and ecological responsibility, the dominance of Western sustainability models, and the often-overlooked wisdom of Indigenous and localized approaches. It delves into topics such as greenwashing, renewable energy waste management, smart city carbon footprints, and the socio-economic impacts of sustainability transitions.
By proposing a hybrid model that integrates multiple perspectives, this book moves beyond the paradox, advocating for adaptive, inclusive, and ethically grounded sustainability strategies. Whether you are a researcher, policymaker, business leader, or sustainability advocate, this book offers insightful analysis and actionable solutions for navigating the complexities of sustainability in a rapidly changing world.
