Founded in 1984, Chelsea Green Publishing is regarded as the preeminent publisher of books on sustainable living with well over 400 titles in print. Chelsea Green titles have received numerous awards, including ALA and Booklist Notable Books of the Year, the John Burroughs Medal, James Beard Award finalist, Garden Globe Award. We are determined to keep Chelsea Green independent and to create a business model that will reflect, at as many levels of structure and function as possible, our commitment to sustainability. As a business, we are dedicated to what Paul Hawken calls "restorative economics," built around an integrated concern for intellectual capital, social capital, natural capital, and financial capital. The business of publishing may be undertaken for any number of defined purposes: providing popular entertainment, building the culture's body of knowledge, giving an audience to academic research, or giving voice to non-commercial literary, political or artistic work. Publishers specialize accordingly, but "the industry" is most widely known for its entertainment sector, owned by international, multimedia conglomerates. Given what's going on in the world today, it has never been more important that the oppositional voices of independent publishers be preserved. The consolidation of mainstream media into ever more gigantic entertainment empires threatens the essence of democratic debate and freedom of expression. Chelsea Green sees publishing as a tool for effecting cultural change. We seek to promote better understanding of natural systems as a global commons. We seek to empower citizens to participate in reclaiming the commons, to serve as its effective stewards, and to help mitigate worldwide social and environmental disruptions. We seek to build a community of new voices that will empower and inspire individuals to reduce their ecological impact and to participate in the restoration of healthy local communities, bioregional ecosystems, and a diversity of cultures.
