ABSTRACT
Now, after all the different approaches to personal sustainability have been presented throughout the book we want to round up the broad spectrum of ideas by condensing some characteristic features from the steps we took into this new field of research. First, we want to draw some general conclusions concerning the endeavour of this book. This is followed by a differentiation of usage of the search term “personal sustainability”. The potential of research in the proposed field and some significant and valuable findings from the book are addressed in this chapter “Highlights”. However, the approach we want to promote does imply certain limits and dangers. We want to address the most important ones in this chapter. Finally, we will summarise the perspectives offered by an approach of personal sustainability research, as well as those offered by personal sustainability itself and that way complete our preliminary map of personal sustainability.
