Description
Achieving Sustainable Development explores how well Canada has
met the Earth Summit's targets and attempts to find ways in which
the public can become involved in such issues. Its authors stress the
importance of integration of information from various fields and seek
to stimulate the exchange of knowledge among the academic community,
government, non-governmental organizations and industry. The
contributors look far beyond merely identifying and analyzing selected
issues and problems. To facilitate public discussion and to affect
policy development, at least one initiative is proposed and detailed
for each problem identified.
