Reviews

'This excellent book asks and attempts to answer several questions about climate change and the low carbon economy such as: What will it be like? How can my business respond to threats and opportunities? How can we make sustainable, low carbon products and services? How can we get started with our move toward greater sustainability?... If you feel you should be doing something about these issues, but don't know where to start, this is a great resource that can help. This book would also be really useful for people working in energy consultancy as a source of case studies, examples, and business cases UK organisations are using to guide their move towards becoming low carbon organisations.' Christine Macdonald on Amazon.co.uk, March 2013
