ISBN: 9780801885884 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The shortage of fresh water is likely to be one of the most pressing issues of the twenty-first century. A UNESCO report predicts that as many as 7 billion people will face shortages of drinking water by 2050. Here, David Lewis Feldman examines river-basin management cases around the world to show how fresh water can be managed to sustain economic development while protecting the environment. He argues that policy makers can employ adaptive management to avoid making decisions that could harm the environment, to recognize and correct mistakes, and to monitor environmental and socioeconomic...

The Water-Sustainable City: Science, Policy and Practice
ISBN: 9781783478569 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Cities place enormous pressures on freshwater quality and availability because they are often located some distance from the water sources needed by their populations. This fact compels planners to build infrastructure to divert water from increasingly distant outlying rural areas, thus disrupting their social fabric and environment. In addition, increasing urbanization due to population growth, economic change, and sprawl places huge burdens upon the institutions, as well as the infrastructure, that deliver, protect, and treat urban water. This book assesses the challenges facing the world's...

Water
ISBN: 9780745650326 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Water is our planet's most precious resource. It is required by every living thing, yet a huge proportion of the world's population struggles to access clean water daily. Agriculture, aquaculture, industry, and energy all depend on it - yet its provision and safety engender widespread conflict; battles likely to intensify as threats to freshwater abundance and quality, such as climate change, urbanization, new forms of pollution, and the privatization of control, continue to grow. But must the cost of potable water become prohibitively expensive for the poor - especially when supplies are...

The Politics of Environmental Policy in Russia
ISBN: 9781782544906 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The authors, renowned experts in the field, explore efforts to develop a mature civil society in Russia, and analyse the policy views of environmental groups, the media, and the scientific community. Three important case studies underpin the study: suspended plans to build an oil pipeline near Lake Baikal; management of Cold War-generated radioactive waste at Chelyabinsk; and public reaction to the introduction of genetically modified foods. The conclusion is that although civil society groups face obstacles in the form of apathy, state-imposed constraints on their activities, and agency...
