Sustainable Consumption: Young Australians as Agents of Change (2005)
This report was prepared for the National Youth Affairs Research Scheme (NYARS) in November 2004 by Matthew Bentley, John Fien, and Cameron Neil. The report:

• Examines the existing consumption patterns of young people in Australia ;
• Studies their attitudes to sustainable consumption and related issues;
• Explores how young people can be encouraged and empowered to make changes in their own consumption patterns as well as being catalysts for change in the wider community; and
• Recommends the implementation of a range of initiatives that would involve the Australian, State and Territory Governments in promoting sustainable consumption amongst young people.
