Dear colleagues-
I am teaching a new undergraduate class this spring called environmental solutions that is meant to highlight tools for environmental improvement that are innovative (mainly defined in that they are not top-down traditional regulatory approaches). The class is meant to focus on tools that seek to green corporate, household, and governmental behavior and are as diverse as voluntary certifications, tradeable quotas, industry self regulation, education, community based social marketing, and virtual reality gaming (and more as you may suggest). I am aiming to include fun and interesting case studies that can highlight strengths and weaknesses of these tools but am having a hard time finding good cases or even current examples. I am hoping this list-serve might be able to provide cases you are aware of? Thank you ahead of time for any help.
