"""Deftly shows how expanding quantification practices around corporate sustainability are serving to perpetuate rather than seriously challenge the role of corporations in causing climate change."" -- Marina Welker, Cornell University ""Engagingly written and featuring an impressive breadth of research, Unsustainable offers a critical ethnography of corporate sustainability practices, challenging businesses (and the rest of us) to reckon with what we mean by `sustainability’ and how we think we can measure and manage it."" -- Andrew Orta, Author of Making Global MBAs: The Culture of Business and the Business of Culture. ""Blows open the disguises of sustainability discourse and corporate sustainability metrics, taking readers on an important journey to demonstrate the ways that politics of sustainability matters. In a world of climate crises, the marketization of sustainability and the outsized influence of corporations in everyday life, ecosystems, and the planet itself, Unsustainable is a necessary book and a tool to help confront systems that perpetuate the problems."" -- Farhana Sultana, Syracuse University"
