| Abstract | This paper reports on a pilot research study of community-led action to drive the concept of a Low Carbon Society. Participatory Action Research (PAR) was used to analyze challenges and opportunities to establish a Low Carbon Community within suburban communities. The Sam Phraya Community, Phetchaburi Province was used as a case study. Using content analysis to evaluate semi-structure interview results, challenges encountered included the conflict between agriculture and urban living. Specifically, the challenges included (1) lack of knowledge and awareness relating to climate change and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at all levels, from farmers to local governors; and (2) lack of understanding of the meaning and implications of a Low Carbon Society within the community, compounded by policy ambiguity. |
