Описание: Explores how human needs and desires, from sustenance and shelter to recreation and travel, have spurred the consumption of Earth`s material resources. Scientists, ecologists, and other expert authors present the historical impact of commercial activities, discuss the global distribution and use of renewable and nonrenewable resources, and focus on innovative approaches for the future.
Описание: Focuses on the geographic area where humans originated and first began to make use of the natural world - Earth`s largest landmass, stretching from Portugal across the steppes of Russia and south across Africa to the Cape of Good Hope. By examining the history of human expansion, international scholars and regional experts weave sustainability into core curricular subjects.
Описание: Provides unprecedented analyses by regional experts and scholars on China, India, and their neighbours. The expanding global economic influence of this region makes these countries vital players in a sustainable future for all citizens of the Earth. Regional coverage includes topics such as business and commerce, environmental and corporate law, and lifestyles and values.
Описание: Brings together essays from a group of renowned scholars and well-known environmentalist thinkers. Crucial topics are considered in terms of the future of humanity and its relationship with the natural world, from the outlook for nuclear energy, cities, energy, agriculture, water, food security, mobility, and migration; the role of higher education; and the concept of collective learning.
Описание: Presents a thorough and accessible overview of the ways in which sustainability is charted worldwide. Some articles introduce basic concepts, such as quantitative versus qualitative data or the weak versus strong sustainability debate; others examine how indicators in specific areas have been applied (or not) to different regions.
Описание: Provides extensive coverage of sustainability practices in two regions linked culturally and historically. Regional experts and international scholars focus on environmental history in areas such as the South Pacific islands, and on countries whose governments and corporations can play a major role in promoting or discouraging sustainable choices.
