ISBN: 9781853833601 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Sustainable development cannot be achieved solely at the international level. Without the creation of more sustainable livelihoods, it will remain a utopian and elusive goal. Yet given the huge differences in economic development and levels of consumption between North and South, how might this be brought about? Taking the 1992 Rio Summit as its point of departure, Wasted examines what we now need to know, and what we need to do, to live within sustainable limits. One of the key issues is how we use the environment: converting natural resources into human artifices, commodities and services....

ISBN: 9780415067027 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 279 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. We live in a society as dominated by food preference as by sexual preference, as obsessed with eating too much as with eating too little. Food as the ultimate commodity in an economic system lies at the base of global development and interdependence; food, from cultivation to consumption, provides the chief link between humankind and the natural environment. Yet, technological advances - in genetics, agri-business and food processing - have combined with changing patterns of diet and (women's) employment to challenge our perception of the natural and of our position within a natural system....
