Download or read book Environment written by Jules Pretty and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2006-06-23 with total page 1588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This four-volume set explores the locations where the environment matters most such as where people are poor, where environments are under threat (such as on frontiers), where there are few natural resources remaining, and where industrialization is rampant. It will also explore these concerns at different system levels, from local-community, to regional, national and global. It will also explore costs of damage to the very resources on which economies rely, and the values of environmental goods and services and the controversies surrounding such valuations. It is organized around environment-people interactions (livelihoods, poverty, income, economic growth); environment-environment interactions (do people matter?); and people-people interactions (collective action challenges, institutions).
Book Synopsis Biodiversity and Local Ecological Knowledge in France by : Laurence Bérard
Download or read book Biodiversity and Local Ecological Knowledge in France written by Laurence Bérard and published by Editions Quae. This book was released on 2005 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The knowledge of nature held by autochthonous and local communities has been the subject of international talks, notably on biodiversity, but has primarily been studied from an autochthonous angle. French experience of conserving and promoting local know-how, which is the subject of this book, is based on the notions of heritage and of terroirs. This original approach could feed international debate. The book is thus primarily intended for negotiators and political leaders, along with local players who may be interested by the global dimension of such know-how.
Book Synopsis From Assessing to Conserving Biodiversity by : Elena Casetta
Download or read book From Assessing to Conserving Biodiversity written by Elena Casetta and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book features essays written by philosophers, biologists, ecologists and conservation scientists facing the current biodiversity crisis. Despite increasing communication, accelerating policy and management responses, and notwithstanding improving ecosystem assessment and endangered species knowledge, conserving biodiversity continues to be more a concern than an accomplished task. Why is it so?The overexploitation of natural resources by our species is a frequently recognised factor, while the short-term economic interests of governments and stakeholders typically clash with the burdens that implementing conservation actions imply. But this is not the whole story. This book develops a different perspective on the problem by exploring the conceptual challenges and practical defiance posed by conserving biodiversity, namely: on the one hand, the difficulties in defining what biodiversity is and characterizing that “thing” to which the word ‘biodiversity’ refers to; on the other hand, the reasons why assessing biodiversity and putting in place effective conservation actions is arduous.
Book Synopsis Environmental Changes by : Céline Granjou
Download or read book Environmental Changes written by Céline Granjou and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-02-20 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses environmental changes and how they reconfigure society's relationship to the future. It argues that Man does not build "his future alone: instead, environmental changes are also proof of the future-making capacity of non-human beings. The author elaborates on the notion of the futures of Nature by drawing on theoretical contributions by recent ground-breaking literature in the field of environmental humanities. The book also builds on a sociological investigation into the practices implemented by environmental scientists, experts and managers confronted with environmental changes. Thinking of nature in terms of its futures requires us to overcome the rooted philosophical tradition that associates nature with permanence and society with creative change. This is a daunting task which can only be successful if we look beyond the long-lasting influence of the human-centered categories of innovation, development and civilization that social sciences have themselves contributed to coining. We need to consider the active capacities of change and transformation of living beings and matter itself. This book is of academic interest, but is also for managers in different fields and areas affected by environmental changes. - Featuring a focus on the notion of future and the aim to locate an approach for the future in sociology - Elaborates on the notion of "more than human futures (drawing on S. Whatmore's words) - Offers grounded and detailed insights into three case-study examples

Book Synopsis The Urban Garden City by : Sandrine Glatron
Download or read book The Urban Garden City written by Sandrine Glatron and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

This book was released on 2022-09-21 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together examples and cases from across the world to discuss how sport has and can further contribute to the UN 2030 Sustainable Development agenda. It discusses the major steps that international bodies have taken so far and can further take in the progressive integration of sport for sustainable development. Contributors from 21 countries take up at least one of the 17 UNO Sport for Development and Peace goals, and present and analyse examples of national, regional or local policies using sport as a lever for sustainable development. From traditional games to major competitions, from gender equality to social development and developing governmental transparency, the chapters showcase diverse experiences and demonstrate that sport is today much more than just physical activity. This book is based on the network of the International Research Network in Sport Tourism (IRNIST) with the collaboration of Sport 4 Impact. It is the first step of a collaboration between universities and the world of associations working in partnership with organizations such as the UN or the European Union. The book is an important resource not just for students and researchers of sport science but for policy makers, bureaucrats and sport administrators.

Book Synopsis Care in Technology by : Xavier Guchet
Download or read book Care in Technology written by Xavier Guchet and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-03-26 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, it is widely recognized that in order to meet environmental challenges, it will not simply be enough to make our lifestyles ÂgreenerÂ; also critical is putting an end to the modern conception of the human as Âmaster and possessor of nature. However, to bear fruit, this change in anthropology must also be accompanied by a revision in our conception of technology. Since the Enlightenment and the development of industrialization, technology no longer seems to be subject to the guiding principles set by the Greeks: prudence and the search for the right measure in all, which leads to the care of beings and the world. Care in Technology analyzes the historical changes that have led technology to become an unthinkable part of care, and care an unthinkable part of technology. It also establishes the conditions for care to once again become a regulatory principle of the activity of engineers who design technology.

Book Synopsis Réhabiliter la nature ordinaire by : Florent Kohler
Download or read book Réhabiliter la nature ordinaire written by Florent Kohler and published by . This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La biodiversité " remarquable " fait l'objet de mesures de protection ; la nature ordinaire, en revanche, ne bénéficie pas de statut particulier, alors qu'elle fournit des services écosystémiques nécessaires au maintien des activités humaines. Cet ouvrage relate une expérience participative menée durant trois ans dans trois communes bocagères françaises, illustratives des mutations qu'a connues le monde rural ces cinquante dernières années : remembrement, amélioration des conditions d'existence, concentration des exploitations et changement de profil des populations. Ces changements eurent un coût social, mais aussi et surtout écologique. Comment amener les habitants, et à travers eux les communes concernées, à laisser davantage de place à la nature ordinaire et à s'intéresser de plus près aux enjeux de la conservation ? Sur la base d'un diagnostic écologique préalable, cet ouvrage présente un travail au long cours, grâce notamment à la restitution des données lors de réunions publiques. Ce bilan d'une méthode participative, sans dissimuler les échecs relatifs, souligne les avancées obtenues grâce au dialogue établi avec les habitants.
