‘Rarely do you find such a wide-ranging coverage of the complexities involved in the greening of the Global South and the attempts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). With examples from Latin America and Africa and in-depth discussions of the roles of business, government and society, this book aims to cover almost all the questions posed by the green and social transition to a better world. Truly challenging and useful.’
