The Green Handprint at Work (eBook, ePUB)

How to Be an Employee Activist for Sustainability

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Our future is being dismantled in real time. Ecological collapse, climate breakdown, rising inequalities - and at the heart of it all: business as usual. More and more employees are beginning to realise that the organisations they work for, and often even the tasks they perform each day, are part of the problem rather than the solution.

The Green Handprint at Work is a guide for those who want to leave a positive environmental impact at their workplace by becoming an employee activist: someone who cares deeply about the environment and wants to create change from within their organisation.

It offers tools, not just inspiration, providing employee activists with insights into how power works and how change spreads. You don't need a formal role to make a difference. You need a strategy - and the courage to act. This book will help you find both.
