Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’ère de l’Anthropocène est marquée par une pression humaine si forte qu’elle a conduit à la sixième extinction de masse. La notion d’état de référence appliquée au domaine de la conservation de la biodiversité permet d’appréhender la domination des humains sur Terre comme un processus de modification de nos paysages qui n’est ni linéaire ni homogène. Conservation de la biodiversité et état de référence s’articule autour de trois points clés. Il définit d’abord où et quand tout a « mal tourné », réfléchit ensuite à l’utilisation des états de référence pour élaborer des stratégies de conservation et propose enfin des exemples d’application concrète de la notion d’état de référence sur le littoral, la forêt et les paysages agropastoraux. La conservation de la biodiversité est aujourd’hui confrontée à des choix nécessaires : revenir à des états moins modifiés par les humains qu’aujourd’hui, mais dans un monde qui a beaucoup changé ; laisser la nature de demain s’exprimer là où elle le peut encore, mais sans aucune feuille de route ; ou encore construire des alternatives basées sur des projets territoriaux.

Book excerpt: Déforestation, désertification, biodiversité, réchauffement planétaire... Que peut apporter la géographie à l'analyse de ces phénomènes environnementaux ? En quoi la démarche géographique peut-elle contribuer à l'élaboration des politiques d'aménagement et de gestion des territoires ? Sans nier l'importance des problèmes actuels en matière d'environnement, cet ouvrage se démarque du discours catastrophiste dominant. En se situant à l'interface entre sciences de la nature et sciences sociales, les auteurs analysent les dynamiques de l'environnement dans leur contexte territorial et leur dimension historique. Au-delà des connaissances factuelles indispensables pour aborder les questions environnementales contemporaines, cet ouvrage propose des éléments de réflexion, concernant notamment les jeux d'acteurs et les questions de perception et de représentation. Une série de dossiers sur les crises environnementales et les contradictions de la conservation dans le monde permet une analyse concrète des problèmes. La Géographie de l'environnement s'adresse aux étudiants comme à tous ceux qui sont soucieux d'entamer une réflexion apaisée, équilibrée et toujours localisée sur les questions environnementales.

This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the principle of ‘sustainable development’ which is currently facing a growing environmental crisis. A new mode of thinking and positioning the ecological imperative is the major input of this volume. The prism of co-viability is not the economics of political agencies that carry the ideology of the dominant/conventional economic schools, but rather an opening of innovation perspectives through science. This volume, through its four parts, more than 40 chapters and a hundred authors, gives birth to a paradigm which crystallizes within a concept that will support in overcoming the ecological emergency deadlock.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aujourd'hui, 120 000 espaces naturels protégés couvrent 20 millions de kilomètres carrés dans le monde. Ils ont accompagné l'essor contemporain de la conscience écologique. Depuis leur création voilà 150 ans, ils sont un élément incontournable de la gestion et de l'aménagement des territoires. Pourtant les espaces naturels protégés traduisent des représentations très variables du rapport des sociétés à leur espace de vie. Ils sont les révélateurs de tensions existant entre des modes concurrents de gestion des territoires. L'auteur propose les outils conceptuels pour appréhender les statuts de protection et leurs enjeux. Synthèse novatrice sur la dimension politique et sociale des espaces naturels protégés, l'ouvrage éclaire leur rôle dans le fonctionnement et le développement des territoires.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensitivity to scales is one of the key challenges in environmental governance. Climate change, food production, energy supply, and natural resource management are examples of environmental challenges that stretch across scales and require action at multiple levels. Governance systems are typically ill-equipped for this task due to organisational and jurisdictional specialisation and short-term planning horizons. Further to this, scientific knowledge is fragmented along disciplinary lines and research traditions in academia and research institutions. State-of-the-art, Scale-Sensitive Governance of the Environment addresses these challenges by establishing the foundation for a new, trans-disciplinary research field. It brings together and reframes a variety of disciplinary approaches, using the idea of scales to create a conceptual and methodological basis for scale-sensitive governance of the environment from both a natural and social science perspective. This volume presents new visions, methods and innovative applications of thinking and decision making across scales in space and time to develop a holistic view on the subject. It is unique in providing: F analysis on how spatial, temporal, and governance scales are constructed, politically and scientifically defined, institutionalized in governance practices, and strategically used in policy discourses F details on how current environmental governance practices can be enriched by the use of theory on scale, with specific research themes to show the benefits of recognizing scales in empirical research F insightful case studies drawn from countries in the Americas, Eastern and Southern Africa, Europe, and South and Southeastern Asia, covering a wide range of environmental topics including biodiversity, climate change, commodities (tea and palm oil), cultural landscapes, energy, forestry, natural resource management, pesticides, urban development, and water management. With its comprehensive coverage of scale and scaling issues and convergence of widely different scientific approaches, this book is essential for environmental scientists, policy makers and planners, also conservation biologists and ecologists who are involved in modeling climate change impacts and sustainability. This reference will also benefit students of environmental studies, and all those who seek a response to the urgent environmental governance challenges for the decades ahead.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change has been a central concern over recent years, with visible and highly publicized consequences such as melting Arctic ice and mountain glaciers, rising sea levels, and the submersion of low-lying coastal areas during mid-latitude and tropical cyclones. This book presents a review of the spatial impacts of contemporary climate change, with a focus on a systematic, multi-scalar approach. Beyond the facts rises in temperature, changes in the spatial distribution of precipitation, melting of the marine and terrestrial cryosphere, changes in hydrological regimes at high and medium latitudes, etc. it also analyzes the geopolitical consequences in the Arctic and Central Asia, changes to Mediterranean culture and to viticulture on a global scale, as well as impacts on the distribution of life, for example, in the Amazon rainforest, in large biomes on a global scale, and for birds.

Book excerpt: This book provides an interdisciplinary overview of the role of gardens in cities throughout different historical periods. It shows that, thanks to various forms of spatial and social organisation, gardens are part of the material urban landscape, biodiversity, symbolic and social shape, and assets of our cities, and are increasingly becoming valued as an ‘order’ to follow. Gardens have long been part of the development of cities, serving different purposes through the ages: shaping neighborhoods to promote health or hygiene, introducing aesthetic or biological elements, gathering the citizens around a social purpose, and providing food and diversity in times of crisis. Highlighting examples that can serve as the basis for comparisons, the chapters offer a brief panorama of experiences and models of gardens in the city – in the European context and in various periods of history – while also discussing issues related to garden cities, urban agriculture and community gardens. The contributors are university staff from various disciplines in the human and life sciences, in discourse with other academics but also with practitioners who are interested in experiences with urban gardens and in promoting an awareness of their spatial, social and ‘philosophical’ goals throughout history. The book will appeal to urban geographers, sociologists and historians, but also to urban ecologists dealing with ecosystem services, biodiversity and sustainable development in cities. From a more operational standpoint, landscape planners and architects are sure to find many of the projects enlightening and inspirational.

Book excerpt: This book provides the first comprehensive and critical examination of the spatial assumptions underpinning transboundary protected areas in Europe, at a time of surging global enthusiasm in creating and managing such areas. It explores how the reliance on the natural science approach to space within environmental planning has led to a return of exclusionary discourses, in paradoxical contrast to the stated claims of designing 'peace parks'. The book builds a much-needed link between the critical geopolitical literature on boundaries and social approaches to nature and hybridity. Drawing the Line is theoretically informed yet grounded in substantial fieldwork from sites in France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and the Ukraine. It uses material from the field to build and question theoretical debates, moving beyond site-specific issues to wider patterns and trends.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SOIL: beneath our feet / food and fiber / ashes to ashes, dust to dust / dirt!Soil has been called the final frontier of environmental research. The critical role of soil in biogeochemical processes is tied to its properties and place—porous, structured, and spatially variable, it serves as a conduit, buffer, and transformer of water, solutes and gases. Yet what is complex, life-giving, and sacred to some, is ordinary, even ugly, to others. This is the enigma that is soil. Soil and Culture explores the perception of soil in ancient, traditional, and modern societies. It looks at the visual arts (painting, textiles, sculpture, architecture, film, comics and stamps), prose & poetry, religion, philosophy, anthropology, archaeology, wine production, health & diet, and disease & warfare. Soil and Culture explores high culture and popular culture—from the paintings of Hieronymus Bosch to the films of Steve McQueen. It looks at ancient societies and contemporary artists. Contributors from a variety of disciplines delve into the mind of Carl Jung and the bellies of soil eaters, and explore Chinese paintings, African mud cloths, Mayan rituals, Japanese films, French comic strips, and Russian poetry.
