Rezensionen

'"Cities play a crucial role in the transition to net zero emissions. They are a substantial source of greenhouse gas emissions, but proactive cities have also been at the forefront of the fight against climate change. This book offers a fascinating, meticulously researched account of how coalitions of public, private and third sector organisations in two leading cities - Glasgow and Copenhagen - have come together to promote urban sustainability."

Professor Sam Fankhauser, Professor of Climate and Economics, University of Oxford
