"Green growth" has proven to be politically popular, but economically elusive. Can Green Sustain Growth? considers the next steps that nations must take to move from theoretic support for green growth to on-the-ground implementation. Analyzing case studies in eight different countries, this volume reveals how coalitions for green experimentation can link climate solutions to progress on specific problems in a way that bridges environmental and industrial interests.
