About the Book
As the world grapples with pressing issues such as climate change, resource depletion, and biodiversity loss, there is a growing recognition of sustainable development and green innovation's critical role in addressing these complex problems.
This curated collection offers a nuanced understanding of sustainable development and green innovation, emphasising the management of associated risks. The interdisciplinary approach adopted in Sustainable Development and Green Innovation aims to bridge gaps between various fields, fostering a holistic perspective essential for effective problem-solving. By integrating insights from environmental science, policy studies, economics, and technology, the result is a multifaceted framework capable of navigating the intricacies of sustainable development. While there is a plethora of literature on sustainability and innovation, the explicit focus on managing risks through interdisciplinary methods is a unique aspect of this publication. Recognising that sustainable practices and innovations may introduce uncertainties and potential drawbacks, the research delves into strategies for mitigating and adapting to these risks.
In the disruption of political upheaval, new technologies, climate change, and new regulations, it is more important than ever to understand risk in the financial industry. Providing high quality academic research, the ESFIRM series provides a platform for authors to explore, analyse and discuss current and new financial models and theories, and engage with innovative research on an international scale.
