The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Sustainable Resources and Ecosystem Resilience

The Palgrave Encyclopaedia of Sustainable Resources and Ecosystem Resilience provides foundational knowledge on how improving resource efficiency (where green growth promotes the efficient use of energy, water, and other material inputs) and ensuring ecosystem resilience (green growth protects the natural environment, its ecosystems, and ecosystem flows) can achieve green growth which values ecosystems, promotes inter-generational development policies, and protects human life and livelihoods from environmental risks and ecological scarcities.

This interdisciplinary reference provides practitioners and researchers with multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary best practices, case studies, and science-policy innovations that improve resource efficiency and ensure ecosystem resilience while facilitating the achievement of various local, national, and international green growth goals. Furthermore, this invaluable reference work will be a comprehensive tool demonstrating how cross-cutting initiatives can simultaneously address multiple green growth goals.
