In Sustainability or Collapse?, researchers from a range of scholarly disciplines develop an integrated human and environmental history over millennial, centennial, and decadal time scales and make projections for the future. The... Human history, as written traditionally, leaves out the important ecological and climate context of historical events. But the capability to integr... |

Creating a Sustainable and Desirable Future: Insights from 45 Global Thought Leaders
ISBN: 9789814546881 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Visionaries and theorists have often been characterized as mere impractical dreamers. It must, however, be recognized that action and change without an appropriate vision of the goal, and analyses of the best methods to achieve it, can be counterproductive. In this sense, a compelling and appropriate vision can be the most practical application. Envisioning must be seen as an ongoing process in which community members collectively identify shared values, describe the future they seek, and develop a plan to achieve common goals. The challenge for the current generation of humans is to develop...

Institutions, Ecosystems and Sustainability focuses on long-term, sust ainable natural resource management practices at the local, national, and international levels. The authors suggest that a major cause of th e "sustainability problem" - regulatory policies for large areas that often threaten the sustainability of both natural resources and previo usly effective governance problems - lie in "scale" problems. Large sc ale ecosystems are not simply larger versions of smaller systems, and micro-scale ecosystems are not merely microcosms of large scale system s. The driving forces and feedback...
