Abstract
Due to rapid growth of urban populations and economic development, many countries and regions are facing severe challenges in seeking to respond to environmental pollution at both local and global levels. This Special Volume of the Journal of Cleaner Production reports upon recent progress on regenerative and preventative eco-industrial development (EID), based upon comprehensive reviews, innovative policies, metrics and indicators, tools and methods and the implementation of sustainable production and consumption. The forty-one articles in this Special Volume show that tangible benefits can be achieved from initiatives performed at both local and national levels. The results and recommendations provide critical insights on how to promote innovative eco-industrial development within different contexts. An integrated framework for promoting regenerative and preventative EID is proposed so that powerful synergies for addressing both local environmental quality and global impacts and ways to track these improvements through the governance framework, can be created.
