ABSTRACT
A number of challenging and valuable approaches have emerged
among sustainability advocates. Many of these approaches have developed
considerable followings among scientists, world leaders and the community
who bind themselves into loose affiliations, often using the labels even
more loosely. Any such group is likely to be unfamiliar with the potential
contribution or partnership potential of the other groups. There are many
such groups and different names have been used to label similar groupings,
leading to further confusion. For the purposes of understanding the field of
sustainability and health, this chapter provides an introduction to a small
number of the many interesting concepts being developed.
