Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional logistical chains have enabled us to respond efficiently to the needs of customers in terms of services and products. However, the returns, rejects and by-products of these activities have been eliminated or ignored. Reverse logistics aims at valuing these products using a value creation network integrating recovery, processing, recycling, distribution or clean removal processes. In the context of sustainable development, integrating economic, social and environmental factors, these activities raise questions concerning the design of products, processes and logistic networks. Taking these considerations into account involves significant changes that affect business models as well as consumer habits. New working methods and a long-term vision are the new bases for sustainable logistic networks. The objective of this book is to supply an educational tool for engineering schools, as well as a management tool for the efficient implementation of the reverse logistics function. It brings together the knowledge acquired by the scientific community. Even if reverse logistics has been the subject of several books over the past few years, very few theories have been developed and the subject is far from being exhausted. This book proposes generic concepts and processes that can be adapted to all businesses producing goods and services and which aim to integrate reverse logistics. These processes will enable us to shed light on their complexity and to take into account all the important variables. Contents 1. Logistics Challenge. 2. Reverse Logistics Engineering. 3. Ecodesign. 4. Value Loops.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the question remains ’Do good fences still make good neighbours’? Since the Great Wall of China, the Antonine Wall, built in Scotland to support Hadrian's Wall, the Roman ’Limes’ or the Danevirk fence, the ’wall’ has been a constant in the protection of defined entities claiming sovereignty, East and West. But is the wall more than an historical relict for the management of borders? In recent years, the wall has been given renewed vigour in North America, particularly along the U.S.-Mexico border, and in Israel-Palestine. But the success of these new walls in the development of friendly and orderly relations between nations (or indeed, within nations) remains unclear. What role does the wall play in the development of security and insecurity? Do walls contribute to a sense of insecurity as much as they assuage fears and create a sense of security for those 'behind the line'? Exactly what kind of security is associated with border walls? This book explores the issue of how the return of the border fences and walls as a political tool may be symptomatic of a new era in border studies and international relations. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this volume examines problems that include security issues ; the recurrence and/or decline of the wall; wall discourses ; legal approaches to the wall; the ’wall industry’ and border technology, as well as their symbolism, role, objectives and efficiency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "L'ouragan Katrina a détruit La Nouvelle-Orléans le 30 août 2005, la mer d'Aral disparaît, un nuage de pollution recouvre l'Asie du Sud... Les phénomènes climatiques extrêmes se multiplient, la biodiversité s'effondre, les conflits politiques autour de l'eau s'intensifient. Dans le même temps, un mouvement international se dessine pour réagir car il est urgent d'éviter de proposer un avenir hostile à l'humanité en épuisant la planète. Les questions climatiques, environnementales, énergétiques ont pris place dans les discussions du sommet du G8 en 2005, dans la campagne électorale californienne en 2006, dans le rapport Stern qui établit le coût du réchauffement global à 5 500 milliards de dollars par an en 2006, dans la proposition de créer une Organisation des Nations unies de l'environnement par la conférence de Paris en février 2007. La "globalisation", cette nouvelle étape de l'histoire humaine, a permis de découvrir le caractère limité des ressources de la planète, qui doivent être entretenues de manière à conserver le tissu du vivant, dont l'humanité n'est qu'une des composantes. Les années à venir seront celles où la créativité humaine, politique, scientifique et technique, culturelle et éthique, s'investira dans le projet global de perpétuation de nos sociétés en préservant l'environnement. L'écologie est devenue la clé de la gouvernance mondiale au XXIe siècle."--P. [4] de la couv

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Notre entrée dans l’Anthropocène – cette nouvelle ère géologique caractérisée par l’influence inédite des sociétés humaines sur les cycles naturels de la planète – a de profondes répercussions dans les relations internationales. Changement climatique, perte de la biodiversité, pénurie des ressources : les effets de la crise écologique se multiplient et provoquent des bouleversements dans l’espace mondial. L’environnement devient dès lors source d’enjeux et de crises. Qui sont les acteurs impliqués dans les conflits environnementaux ? Comment cherchent-ils à influencer les décisions politiques pour protéger leurs intérêts ? À l’heure où l’ONU peine à mettre en œuvre les accords sur le climat et où la guerre en Ukraine met en lumière les liens ténus entre sécurité et énergie, Adrien Estève propose une approche globale de la géopolitique de l’environnement et expose les interactions complexes entre les facteurs environnementaux, économiques et sociaux.

Book excerpt: A best seller in France, and already translated into Spanish, Italian, Greek, and Korean, Hervé Kempf'sHow the Rich Are Destroying the Earth now appears in its first English edition. Bringing to bear more than twenty years of experience as an environmental journalist, Kempf describes the invincibility that many of the world's wealthy feel in the face of global warming, and how their unchecked privilege is thwarting action on the single most vexing problem facing our world.In this important primer on the link between global ecology and the global economy, Kempf makes the following observations: First, that the planet's ecological situation is growing ever worse, despite the efforts of millions of engaged citizens around the world. And second, despite environmentalists' emphasis that "we're all in the same boat," the world's economic elites--who continue to benefit by plundering the environment--have access to "lifeboats" that insulate them from the resulting catastrophes.Societies have not been able to effectively combat the expanding ecological crisis because it is intimately linked to the social crisis in which the ruling form of capitalism has been organized to impede democratic initiatives. This link explains the failure to make progress against the greatest emergency of our time, because in this relationship the oligarchy plays an essential and destructive role. For this reason, solving the ecological crisis depends on disrupting the power of the world's elite.We cannot understand the entwined ecological and social crises, Kempf argues, if we don't see them as the two sides of the same disaster--a disaster that comes from a system piloted by a dominant social strata that has no drive other than greed, no ideal other than conservatism, no dream other than technology. But Kempf also calls for measured optimism: "Despite the scale of the challenges that await us, solutions are emerging and--faced with the sinister prospects the oligarchs promote--the desire to remake the world is being reborn."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’idée d’une « crise écologique globale » annonçant un désastre planétaire est largement répandue. Les perspectives démographiques − 9,3 milliards d’individus en 2050, plus de 10 milliards en 2100 − font surgir de grandes peurs sociales, environnementales et sanitaires. Cet ouvrage propose un regard différent. Les auteurs, tous géographes reconnus, analysent dix grands défis du xxie siècle, en soulignant la capacité de nos sociétés à y répondre par de nouveaux choix politiques, appuyés sur les sciences et les techniques. Nourrir les hommes, partager l’eau, préserver les ressources, rendre les villes vivables, développer les transports... Comment vivre ensemble et construire l’avenir dans un monde que l’on sait fragile ? La planète des hommes est un bien commun : à chaque société de trouver le moyen de la respecter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage fait le point sur les problèmes environnementaux internationaux qui mobilisent les Etats depuis la Conférence de Rio de Janeiro au Brésil en 1992 : changements climatiques, déforestation, érosion de la biodiversité, sécheresse et désertification. Il analyse l'avènement du développement durable, proposé sous les auspices de l'ONU comme solution à ces problèmes environnementaux internationaux. Les textes fondateurs du développement durable, en particulier le rapport Brundtland, les conventions internationales sur l'environnement, les accords de Copenhague et de Cancun, sont décryptés. Des cartes permettent de se rendre compte de la géographie de la ratification de ces traités internationaux, fournissant ainsi des enseignements géopolitiques sur l'adhésion des Etats aux préoccupations environnementales internationales et au leitmotiv du développement durable. Les difficultés de concilier le développement économique et la protection de l'environnement sont mises en évidence, ainsi que les désaccords entre les pays développés et les pays en développement, ces difficultés et ces désaccords étant sous-jacents au défi de la gouvernance environnementale internationale. L'ouvrage aborde en outre la mise en oeuvre des mécanismes internationaux de développement durable : le mécanisme pour un développement propre (MDP), le mécanisme de réduction de la déforestation (REDD), et la certification forestière. Ces mécanismes ont une connotation marchande et tendent à accroître le rôle du marché et le poids géopolitique des pays émergents et des pays en développement. Alliant la synthèse géographique dans une perspective internationale et l'analyse des désaccords entre les pays développés et les pays en développement, l'ouvrage éclaire la géopolitique du développement durable et permet de disposer de connaissances fondamentales en la matière. Les perspectives esquissées sont utiles pour suivre l'évolution des débats et des négociations internationales sur les problèmes environnementaux planétaires et sur la mise en oeuvre du développement durable au niveau international.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Penser global, agir local. Penser local, agir global... Ces formules symbolisent toute la complexité de la gestion de l'environnement à différentes échelles. Comment l'homme peut-il maîtriser, voire gérer, les problèmes environnementaux de la planète alors qu'il a tendance à ne percevoir que son environnement proche? L'étendue de son environnement, et donc de son territoire, augmente constamment grâce aux déplacements de plus en plus facilités. Quel est donc l'impact, à toutes les échelles, des activités humaines (agriculture, urbanisation, industrie, tourisme, par exemple) sur les conditions du milieu? Pour appréhender tous ces effets, il faut d'abord décortiquer les phénomènes du local au global, puis comparer les processus, ensuite établir un diagnostic afin d'élaborer des scénarios d'évolution et faire de la prospective. C'est ce que proposent les auteurs de cet ouvrage de synthèse qui intéressera le lecteur curieux de son environnement et soucieux d'un avenir de qualité. [Source : 4ème de couv.]

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few decades, historians of scientific ecology have brought to light the role of the European scientists who have laid the basic cornerstones of modern ecology between the end of the eighteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century. The foundations of geobotany were laid by Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859), Augustin-Pyramus de Candolle (1778-1841), Alphonse Jules Dureau de la Malle (1777-1857), Gaston Bonnier (1853-1922) and Charles Flahault (1852-1935); biocenotics, by Erasmus Darwin (1731-1802), Charles Lyell (1797-1875), Pierre-François Verhulst (1804-1849), Charles Darwin (1809-1882), Karl Moebius (1825-1908), Charles Valentine-Riley (1843-1895), and François-Alphonse Forel (1841-1912); agrochemistry and microbiology by Justus von Liebig (1803-1873), Jean-Baptiste Boussingault (1802-1887), and Stanislas Winogradski (1856-1953); the taxonomy of communities by August Heinrich Grisebach (1813-1879), Anton Kerner von Marilaün (1831-1898), Alphonse de Candolle (1806-1893), and Charles Flahault; and anthropogeography by Karl Ritter (1779-1859), Elisée Reclus (1830-1905), and Friederich Ratzel (1844-1904). Together, they created the conditions that, with Eugenius Warming (1841-1924), gave birth to the autonomous discipline of scientific ecology, thirty years after the German biologist Ernst Haeckel (1834-1919) had christened this new branch of biology. Up to now, the writings of these scientists have been scattered in various publications that were often not accessible, which made a comparative study almost impossible. There was thus a need to bring together the primary sources in their original form, pagination, and language (whenever possible, a version of the text has been made available in a second language as well). They are gathered here in two volumes, in an analytical framework that aids in understanding their relevant historical context and significance. To deal with the complex multidisciplinary roots of the history of ecology, Pascal Acot has brought together a group of historians with authoritative knowledge of the field's various sub-branches, without ever losing sight of ecology's relationship to the broader history of biology and the environmental sciences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that current economist theories do not take into account the socially constructed nature of the debate surrounding the environment and environmental policy. It examines whether proposed economic solutions to environmental policy are, in fact, viable in practice. The book demonstrates that social conflicts cause policy compromises, which shape the economic system of a post-industrial ecological society. The author offers an innovative socio-economic theory of environmental politics, which illuminates the transformation dynamics brought about by the ecological crisis. Regulation Theory and Sustainable Development will be of interest to students and scholars of environmental politics, policy and governance.
