Environmental Change and Human Security: Recognizing and Acting on Hazard Impacts
Language: English
Published by Springer Netherlands, 2008
ISBN 10: 1402085494 ISBN 13: 9781402085499
Condition: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 504 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Environmental and Human Security: Then and Now 1 2 ALAN D. HECHT AND P. H. LIOTTA * 1 U. S. Environmental Protection Agency Office of Research and Development 2 Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy Salve Regina University 1. Nontraditional Threats to Security The events of September 11, 2001 have sharpened the debate over the meaning of being secure. Before 9/11 there were warnings in all parts of the world that social and environmental changes were occurring. While there was prosperity in North America and Western Europe, there was also increasing recognition that local and global effects of ecosystem degradation posed a serious threat. Trekking from Cairo to Cape Town thirty years after living in Africa as a young teacher, for example, travel writer Paul Theroux concluded that development in sub-Saharan Africa had failed to improve the quality of life for 300 million people: żAfrica is materially more decrepit than it was when I first knew itżhungrier, poorer, less educated, more pessimistic, more corrupt, and you canżt tell the politicians from the witch-doctorsż (2002). While scholars and historians will debate the causes of 9/11 for some time, one message is clear: An often dizzying array of nontraditional threats and complex vulnerabilities define security today. We must understand them, and deal with them, or suffer the consequences. Environmental security has always required att- tion to nontraditional threats linked closely with social and economic well-being.

Desertification in Developed Countries : International Symposium and Workshop on Desertification in Developed Countries: Why canżt We Control It?
Language: English
Published by Springer Netherlands, 2011
ISBN 10: 9401072310 ISBN 13: 9789401072311
Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Desertification has re-emerged as a topic of global significance as a consequence of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development. When first addressed over a generation ago, attention was drawn to the compelling, spectacular images of sand dunes engulfing farmlands and parched cattle dying around wells. Research tended to focus on these events as unusual phenomena that involved the unfortunate collision of climate and `irrational' land use. Since then, the work of many researchers has shown us that desertification is a multifaceted problem that involves climatic, biogeochemical, political, and socio-economic processes that operate more or less continuously but at rates that vary in time and space. No attempts to arrest or reverse desertification that ignore this complexity are likely to succeed. In a single volume, `Desertification in Developed Countries' describes the multiple dimensions of desertification as well as the novel approaches that have been used to address it within the economies of developed countries. This is done from the perspectives and experiences of the numerous authors who have contributed to this book.
