Book Synopsis Environnement et transition écologique by : Laurent Mermet
Download or read book Environnement et transition écologique written by Laurent Mermet and published by De Boeck Supérieur. This book was released on 2017-04-24 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis le début des années 1990, la concertation a été au centre des débats et de l'action publique dans le champ de l'environnement. Elle a d'abord été l'objet d'un véritable front d'innovation, puis s'est généralisée et institutionnalisée, devenant un incontournable pour tous les acteurs, publics ou privés. Le moment est venu de faire le bilan des attentes remplies ou déçues, de ce qui reste à faire pour, et par, la concertation environnementale. De mieux cerner aussi les limites de ce que la concertation peut ou ne peut pas apporter à la résolution des problèmes écologiques qui se posent à nous aujourd'hui. Issu des résultats les plus récents d'un programme de recherche coordonné et approfondi dans la durée, l'ouvrage croise des thématiques et des approches complémentaires. Dans un contexte où notre compréhension et nos conceptions de la concertation évoluent rapidement, il apporte un riche matériau de terrain inédit et des analyses fines pour dépasser les idées reçues et renouveler les perspectives pour les années qui viennent. Les étudiants et chercheurs travaillant sur la participation du public aux décisions publiques, sur les questions d'environnement et d'aménagement y trouveront de multiples ressources à la pointe des travaux actuels sur la concertation. L'ouvrage s'adresse aussi aux praticiens de la concertation, de l'action environnementale ou de l'aménagement, dont la réflexion sera alimentée par un retour d'expérience diversifié et précis, ainsi que par des perspectives d'analyse utiles, stimulantes, voire parfois provocantes.
Book Synopsis Eco-Design and Ecological Transition by : Marie-France Vernier
Download or read book Eco-Design and Ecological Transition written by Marie-France Vernier and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successive IPCC reports consistently stress the devastating impact of human activity on the climate. An ecological transition seems essential to modify our economic and social system, while meeting the needs of current and future generations. As the main culprits of environmental destruction, companies must modify their production methods to reduce their negative impact on the environment. Eco Design and Ecological Transition presents an innovative approach to eco design, a method that aims to offer products or services with a reduced environmental impact compared to conventional production methods, from the extraction of resources to the end of the product’s life. The book also analyzes the potential of the circular economy and frugal innovation. It shows that innovation, to be sustainable, must be both environmentally and socially sustainable. From a systemic point of view, it examines the ability of players, particularly companies, to change their strategies in order to combine human well-being and respect for the environment in the context of ecological transition.

Book Synopsis Can Cities, States and Regions Save Our Planet? by : Arnault Barichella
Download or read book Can Cities, States and Regions Save Our Planet? written by Arnault Barichella and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-19 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the potential for cities, states and regions to take decisive action on climate change at the local level. Local action constitutes an essential component of global efforts to keep temperatures below the 2°C Paris Agreement threshold. Focusing on three green municipal leaders - New York, Boston and Paris - this volume examines their multilevel interactions with higher governance echelons in the United States and France. Even though these countries are located on different continents, similar patterns emerge on both sides of the Atlantic. This book explores the key role of municipalities and sub-state entities in shaping the climate policy agenda vis-à-vis national governments in the US and France. It argues that inadequate articulation of multilevel governance may jeopardize efforts to limit global temperature increase below the 2°C threshold by the end of the century.

Book Synopsis Climatic Impact of Activities by : Jean-Yves Rossignol
Download or read book Climatic Impact of Activities written by Jean-Yves Rossignol and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-01-09 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where the environment is concerned, regardless of scale, the logic of the Native American hummingbird which does its part should prevail. To act independently of others is indeed the sine qua non of the global shift towards a regenerative economy of humanity and ecosystems, expurgating the pervading pollution (particularly from oil use). Small- and medium-sized enterprises, which this book especially targets, do not need disproportionately-sized study facilities in order to reduce their impact on global warming. Climatic Impact of Activities provides valuable methodological and practical support for establishing a complete and reliable diagnosis of the greenhouse effect, and for planning the corresponding corrective actions. This book guides the reader step by step in developing an informed emissions assessment with realistic and advanced case studies, in full compliance with official methodological recommendations.
Book Synopsis The European Environmental Conscience in EU Politics by : Thomas Hoerber
Download or read book The European Environmental Conscience in EU Politics written by Thomas Hoerber and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on empirical studies of European energy and environmental policies, this book suggests that, in combination, these two policy fields form a consensus in the EU which might also become the basis for a new European ideology, namely European ‘sustainabilism’. It asks why an environmental conscience has grown since the late 1960s in the industrialised world and shows that whilst there is undeniable environmental degradation during this time, and that a European environmental conscience has mainly developed through successive steps of European integration in energy policy. In this connection between energy and the environmental we find one driver for European integration and indeed European identity. If sustainabilism should become a European ideology, it will substantially influence the way future Europeans will live. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of European Studies, International Relations, Political Science, History, Economics, Sustainability Studies, Environmental and Energy Policies in Europe.

Book Synopsis The Transition Handbook by : Rob Hopkins
Download or read book The Transition Handbook written by Rob Hopkins and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-02-25 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Move from feeling anxious about the oil crisis to developing a positive visions and taking traction action to create a more self-reliant existence with this ground-breaking book. We live in an oil-dependent world, and have become reliant in a very short space of time, using vast reserves of oil in the process – and without planning for when the supply is not so plentiful. Most of us avoid thinking about what happens when the oil runs out (or becomes prohibitively expensive), but the reality may not be as bad as we think. The Transition Handbook shows how the inevitable and profound changes ahead could have a positive effect. Written by permaculture expert Rob Hopkins, he discusses the possibility of a rebirth of local communities, which will generate their own fuel, food and housing. These will encourage the development of local currencies, to keep money in the local area, and unleash a local 'skilling-up', so that people have more control over their lives. The growth in interest in the Transition model continues to be exponential. There are now more than 35 formal Transition Initiatives in the UK, including towns, cities, islands, villages and peninsulas, with more joining as the idea takes off. With little proactivity at government level, communities are taking matters into their own hands and acting locally. If your community has not yet become a Transition Initiative, this upbeat guide, filled with beautiful black and white photographs, offers you the tools to get started. The Transition Handbook is the perfect manual to guide communities, as they begin this 'energy descent' journey.
Book Synopsis Cross-Border Renewable Energy Transitions by : Philippe Hamman
Download or read book Cross-Border Renewable Energy Transitions written by Philippe Hamman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-26 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the intrinsically multiscale issue of renewable energy transition from a local, national and transnational perspective, and provides insights into current developments in the Upper Rhine Region that can serve as an international model. Organised around the exploration of stakeholder issues, the volume first describes a framework for public action and modelling and then articulates a triple complementary focus from the viewpoint of law, economics and sociology. This multidisciplinary approach is anchored in the social sciences, but also explores the ways in which technological issues are increasingly debated in the implementation of the ecological transition. With a focus on the Upper Rhine Region of France, Germany and Switzerland, the contributions throughout analyse how concrete regional projects emerge, and whether they are carried out by local authorities, private energy groups, network associations or committed citizens. From this, it appears that real-world energy transition modes can be best understood as permanent transactional processes involving institutional regulations, economic levers and barriers and social interactions. This book will be of interest to advanced students and scholars focusing on renewable energy transition, stakeholder issues, environment and sustainability studies, as well as those who are interested in the methodological aspects of the social sciences, especially within the fields of sociology, law, economy, geography, political science, urbanism and planning.
Book Synopsis Technological Imagination in the Green and Digital Transition by : Eugenio Arbizzani
Download or read book Technological Imagination in the Green and Digital Transition written by Eugenio Arbizzani and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-29 with total page 1027 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book addresses the pressing need for sustainability in urban development and the use of technology, with cities to serve as the main stage for strategies that seek to meet the targets and the cross-sector priorities indicated in the EU’s Next Generation program, all in pursuit of a solid recovery on the part of the European economy, along lines of ecological transition, digitalization, competitiveness, training, and inclusion to overcome social, territorial, and gender differences. The international study encounter is meant to promote visions shared by architectural technology and other disciplines, which, though they may appear to differ, are closely interconnected, with the aim of achieving an open, interdisciplinary integration capable of proposing concrete projects regarding topics held to be of strategic importance to the future of the built environment. These are identified to draw up evolving scenarios of architecture and cities suited to reflection, at various levels, on innovative models of process and product.
Book Synopsis Development and Territorial Restructuring in an Era of Global Change by : Elisabeth Peyroux
Download or read book Development and Territorial Restructuring in an Era of Global Change written by Elisabeth Peyroux and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thinking about development and the environment simultaneously is one of the biggest scientific and societal challenges of the 21st century. Understanding the interactions between biophysical systems and human activities in an era of global change requires overcoming disciplinary divides and opening up new epistemological perspectives. This book explores these challenges using a territorial lens. Combining various scales of analyses (from global to local) and contexts (both urban and rural) in the North and in the South, it analyzes the relationships between environment and development through a variety of geographical objects (i.e. cities, rural and agricultural areas, coastlines, watershed), themes (i.e. ecological transitions, food, energy, transport, agriculture, mining activities) and methodologies (i.e. qualitative and quantitative approaches, modeling, in situ measurements). By engaging in a dialogue between social science and natural science disciplines, within different fields and with a variety of forms of knowledge production, this book provides essential information for understanding and reading the complexity of a globalized world. This book is targeted at academics and students in social sciences and at stakeholders in the field of territorial and environmental management.
