For example, there is a high demand for sustainability and decarbonization. A better understanding of the interactions between actors and organizations can improve the effectiveness of sustainability strategies and policies. The chapters in this book contribute to this understanding by examining products, services, brands, labels, and organizations in the context of ethical and environmental issues. They apply this theme to a range of areas, including banking, retailing, tourism, finance, agriculture, and education, suggesting pertinent questions and promising avenues for future research.
