Sumario:Our behaviour in our own homes - our recycling habits, consumer choices and transport preferences - all have a huge impact on the environment locally and globally. Governments across the world are trying to formulate and implement policies to encourage and enforce more sustainable household actions.

This book examines this interplay, looking at the role of values, attitudes and constraints in the links between policy and changing behaviour.
