Green Gentrification: Urban sustainability and the struggle for environmental justice
ISBN: 9781138309135 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Green Gentrification looks at the social consequences of urban "greening" from an environmental justice and sustainable development perspective. Through a comparative examination of five cases of urban greening in Brooklyn, New York, it demonstrates that such initiatives, while positive for the environment, tend to increase inequality and thus undermine the social pillar of sustainable development. Although greening is ostensibly intended to improve environmental conditions in neighborhoods, it generates green gentrification that pushes out the working-class, and people of color, and attracts...

Local Environmental Struggles
ISBN: 9780521555197 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In recent years, environmentalism in the United States has increasingly emerged at the community level, focusing on local ecological problems.

Three case studies--a wetlands protection project, water pollution of the Great Lakes, and consumer waste recycling--demonstrate the challenges facing citizen-worker movements.

ISBN: 9781594515064 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.
