Abstract

Across the globe we find examples of local initiatives that stimulate green economies either led by communities themselves or through the formal engagement and mobilization of the public by local government and other local institutions. There are a huge range of sustainability projects and green businesses that benefit from local skills, innovation and community support. This chapter seeks to highlight how adopting a publicly ‘embedded’ approach, one that is culturally and socially-tied to local communities, will produce more lasting and equitable outcomes.
