This book gives voice to a group of leisure scholars who are engaged in conversations about sustainability. Beginning with discussions on the relationship between leisure and sustainability and how these concepts are addressed in current literature, a case is made for continued investigation of how leisure and sustainability need to be better understood; and viewed as integrally linked.

The book discusses issues related to environmental sustainability; how, at the local level, leisure is considered as a solution to a range of social, environmental, and economic issues; and the value of leisure as an asset for addressing several social sustainability challenges.

This book was originally published as a special issue of Leisure/Loisir: Journal of the Canadian Association for Leisure Studies.

Susan Tirone is recently retired from her position as a Professor and the Undergraduate Program Associate Director in the College of Sustainability and the School of Health and Human Performance at Dalhousie University, Halifax Regional Municipality, Canada. Her research and teaching focussed on interdisciplinary approaches to understanding communities, social change, sustainability, and human leisure activities.

Elizabeth A. Halpenny is an Associate Professor at the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. She has research interests in tourism, marketing, environmental psychology, and protected-areas management. Prior to entering academia in 2005, she worked with the International Ecotourism Society as a Research and Workshop Coordinator.
