Green planning in Australia and Canada: Dead or alive?

Abstract

Green planning has been hailed as a new and promising stage in the development of environmental policy, as it provides a more comprehensive and integrated approach to environmental problems. Since the late 1980s, green plans (under a variety of labels) have been adopted by many governments, including those of Canada and Australia. In both countries, however, green planning efforts have come to grief and their green plans have been proclaimed ‘dead’. This demise of green planning is analysed and underlying factors are discussed. It is argued that, despite the considerable obstacles to sustained green planning, there are strong reasons for reviving it in these countries.
