Endnote Appendix: Addenda to the Agenda About the AuthorReviewsRick Reibstein knows how to make government regulation work for business and society. He has brought needed change to manufacturing shop floors and back-room deliberations of policy makers. When he says we can use government to bring about a most sustainable society, we can trust him. In his book, he lays out some of the steps we need to take. -- Andrew King, Boston University This book is for the pragmatic optimist who knows a more sustainable future will require radical collaborations. You will read about Rick Reibstein's purposeful career of constantly forging radical public private collaborations to repair and protect our common environment. Rick embraces the principle of democracy where individual (corporate) rights and public responsibilities is an indivisible concept. With his stories we see how a responsive environmental governance, through innovative programs and good regulations, can encourage creative solutions leading to better outcomes. It is almost as if the UN Sustainable Development Goal 17, calling for partnerships to address the most vexing problems of climate change, diminished ecosystem, and soul crushing disparities, was modeled on Rick's career. -- John D. Spengler, Harvard University Author InformationRick Reibstein teaches environmental law at Boston University, and has taught at Clark, Northeastern, Suffolk, and MIT. Reibstein has published many articles on environmental law and policy. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
