The Future of Environmentalism
Environmentalism, then, involves hundreds of international environmental groups, thousands of national groups, and tens of thousands of local ones.
It also includes hundreds of international agreements, hundreds of national environmental agencies, and countless environmental sections in other organizations-from ones in MNCs to ones in regional and international organizations.
Environmental concepts such as sustainable development, the precautionary principle, corporate social responsibility, and eco-labeling percolate from all of these sources.
