Tackling sustainability will be an increasingly important consideration in design and development. As a result, opportunities for innovation in products, services, technologies and business models will emerge for entrepreneurs and innovators. This chapter provides an overview of the emergence of sustainability innovation and design. The emerging issues and trends will be explored in sections covering the role of sustainability, innovation and design in transforming resources, in materials management, in production, in consumption and in place planning and use.
