Download or read book Contested Natures written by Phil Macnaghten and published by SAGE. This book was released on 1998-05-21 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demonstrating that all notions of nature are inextricably entangled in different forms of social life, the text elaborates the many ways in which the apparently natural world has been produced from within particular social practices. These are analyzed in terms of different senses, different times and the production of distinct spaces, including the local, the national and the global. The authors emphasize the importance of cultural understandings of the physical world, highlighting the ways in which these have been routinely misunderstood by academic and policy discourses. They show that popular conceptions of, and attitudes to, nature are often contradictory and that there are no simple ways of prevailing upon people to `
Book Synopsis Human Stress and the Environment by : Allen H. Rose
Download or read book Human Stress and the Environment written by Allen H. Rose and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1994-09-23 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compilation of papers represents a comprehensive study by scientists and professionals of the effects of stress on health, and possible remedies to the problems arising from stress. The sources of stress considered here include work, transport, waste and general environmental factors. Mental and physical health aspects are considered in detail, in addition to the effects of stress on ageing and well-being. The study of stress in animals, which may well tell us more about stress in humans, is also discussed here. In view of the fact that stress in modern life is one of the major factors affecting human health, the volume represents a timely and valuable contribution to the current debate on community health.

Book Synopsis Nitrogen Cycling in the North Atlantic Ocean and its Watersheds by : Robert W. Howarth
Download or read book Nitrogen Cycling in the North Atlantic Ocean and its Watersheds written by Robert W. Howarth and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human activity has dramatically altered the global nitrogen cycle in recent decades. These changes are not evenly distributed around the world; rather, they are greatest in regions of significant industrial and agricultural activity, as the synthesis and use of inorganic fertilizers, cultivation of legumes, burning of fossil fuels, and the simple act of concentrating humans and animals in dense populations all lead to the release of excess, reactive forms of nitrogen into the environment. In part because reactive nitrogen is frequently a limiting nutrient in many terrestrial and aquatic systems, an excess can lead to a variety of adverse effects on both environmental and human health. The North Atlantic Ocean and its contributing watersheds constitute a region which has seen perhaps the greatest increase in anthropogenically-derived nitrogen. In May of 1994, the International Scope Nitrogen Project, with funding from the Andrew Mellon Foundation, the United Nations Environment Program, and the World Meteorological Organization, sponsored a workshop held on Block Island, RI, USA, entitled `Nitrogen Dynamics of the North Atlantic Basin'. More than 50 scientists from 12 different countries convened with a unique set of goals: an integrated and comprehensive estimate of the current nitrogen cycle of the ocean, coastal systems, and contributing watersheds of the North Atlantic region; an analysis of human-induced changes to those cycles; and an assessment of the current and future effects of human-induced changes to nitrogen cycling throughout the globe.
Book Synopsis Environmental Rights by : Steve Vanderheiden
Download or read book Environmental Rights written by Steve Vanderheiden and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays selected for this volume present critical viewpoints from the debate about the need to establish rights on behalf of greater environmental protection. Three main areas for developing environmental rights are surveyed, including: extensionist theories that link existing rights (for example to subsistence or territory) to threats of harm from exacerbated resource scarcity, pollution or rapid environmental change; proposals for rights to specified environmental goods or services, such as rights to a safe environment and the capacity to assimilate greenhouse gas emissions; and rights that protect the interests of parties not currently recognized as having rights, including nonhuman subjects, natural objects and future generations. This volume captures the potential for and primary challenges to the development of rights as instruments for safeguarding the planet's life-support capacities and features proposals and analyses which argue the need to create an avenue of recourse against ecological degradation, whether on behalf of human or nonhuman right holders.

Book Synopsis Lead & Public Health by : Erik Millstone
Download or read book Lead & Public Health written by Erik Millstone and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1997-10-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lead is the most serious and widespread poison in our environment, and can cause serious damage to the mental development of young children at relatively low levels. Taking lead out of petrol has dealt with only one source of exposure: the most serious hazards arise from old leaded paint in our homes, schools and workplaces, and from the old leaded pipes that can carry our drinking water. This is the first book to offer an accessible and authoritative guide to the subject. Focussing on the evidence concerning children - and making use of previously unpublished governmental research - it gives the background to the scientific debate about the toxicology of lead, and examines the impacts on human health. The regulatory regimes of the US and UK are assessed and further appropriate steps are suggested. For over 20 years, scientific evidence has accumulated showing how harmful current exposure to lead is: yet neither the UK nor the US government has faced up to the facts. Lead and Public Health is a persuasive account of the implications of, and possible solutions for, this crucial issue.
