Reviews:
More than a book, McKenzie-Mohr and Tabanico have given us a complete system for designing effective environmental programs. Solidly grounded in research and extensively field-tested in community programs, the tools described in this book can be applied to improve the effectiveness of any environmental program. Simply put, if you work on environmental issues, this book is indispensable. Dr. Clara Dolderman, Environmental Psychologist
Fostering Sustainable Behavior breaks down the mechanics of how to build effective, long-lasting behavior change, demystifying each step in practical and applicable ways. Whether you're new to the field or an expert, this is THE manual to guide you through improving your program's approach and outcomes. Dr. Edith de Guzman, University of California
This new edition provides the best program I have seen for marketing and achieving sustainability. It provides the theory, the steps, and the tools for protecting and enhancing our living environment. I hope this book receives the widest readership. Dr. Philip Kotler, Northwestern University
Fostering Sustainable Behavior is a must-read for anyone hoping to achieve actual behavior change, as well as for anyone teaching the psychology of behavior change. The concepts presented in this book have revolutionized my work as a scholar and an activist. Dr. Cynthia McPherson Frantz, Oberlin College
Fostering Sustainable Behavior should be required reading for anyone who develops or manages an environmental program. Dr. Wesley Schultz, Claremont Graduate School
Fostering Sustainable Behavior is a “must read” for anyone interested in improving the impact of community-based behavior change programs.

McKenzie-Mohr and Tabanico's methods for applying behavioral science and psychology to real-world environmental challenges are unparalleled. Their work connects theory to action in ways that are practical, and that spark tangible results.
