13. (Re)Creating Ecological Action Space : Householders' Activities for Sustainable development in Sweden
Abstract : Where does my individual responsibility for the environment start and end? Should I be responsible for environmental stress in India only because my shoes were produced there, or for climate change that endangers species in Antarctica, or rising sea levels on Pacific islands which just might have been caused by my driving?
