This book develops a path to decarbonization through a process of Green Market Transformation. Matisoff and Noonan assess the scope and impact of the green building movement, which is working towards decarbonizing a sector that accounts for more than a third of global carbon emissions. They describe the role of the movement in addressing sustainability challenges within the building and construction sector, and suggest new ways of marshalling markets through the voluntary efforts of industry to shift society towards a better future. Matisoff and Noonan tell the success story of the green industry, seen through the lens of green buildings and ecolabels. By combining case studies with recent interdisciplinary scholarship, the authors provide a compelling narrative of the opportunities and limitations of reliance on voluntary approaches to regulation. -- Page i By assessing cases of ecolabeling and green building, this book presents a theory of Green Market Transformation that combines innovation and sustainability. It reimagines the ways in which markets can be leveraged to transform industry, and will appeal to a broad readership, from planners to architects, construction managers to researchers.
