Book DescriptionExposes how big business, the Bush administration, and environmentalists alike are preventing us from solving the problem of global warming-and offers a prescription for saving the planet In Boiling Point, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ross Gelbspan argues that, unchecked, climate change will swamp every other issue оджфз facing us today Indeed, what began as an initial response of many institutions-denial and delay-has now grown into a crime against humanity The fossil fuel industry is directing the Bush administration's energy and climate policies-payback for helping Bush get elected But they're not the only ones to blame: the media and environmental activists are unwittingly worsening the crisis In his new introduction, Gelbspan reveals that the outlook isn't getting better The climate continues to change with increasing acceleration: hurricanes devastated Florida; rainfall patterns left two million people starving in Kenya; 2004 was the fourth hottest year on record At the same time, the coal industry was planning to sabotage an effort in the Senate to begin to regulate carbon dioxide Officials of Switzerland, France, and Canada said last year that, when the Kyoto Protocol takes effect, they intend to take the United States to court under the World Trade Organization, reasoning that the U S 's refusal to lower their carbon emissions amounts to an illegal subsidy-a "carbon subsidy"-on its exports With the reelection of George W Bush and a Republican-controlled congress, Boiling Point is more imperative than ever Both a passionate call-to-arms and a thoughtful roadmap for change, Gelbspan reveals what's at stake for our fragile planet.  2005 г 254 стр ISBN 0465027628.

Book DescriptionIn 1984, the late great Edward Abbey compiled this reader, endeavoring, as he says in his preface, "to present what I think is both the best and most representative of my writing--so far " Two decades later, it remains the only major collection of his work chosen by Abbey himself, a rich feast of fiction and prose by the singular оджхщ American writer whom Larry McMurtry called "the Thoreau of the American West" and whom Alice Hoffman hailed as "the voice of all that is ornery and honorable " Devoted Abbey fans along with readers just discovering his work will find a mother lode of treasures here: generous chunks of his best novels, including The Brave Cowboy, Black Sun, and his classic The Monkey Wrench Gang; and more than a score of his evocative, passionate, trenchant essays--a genre in which he produced acknowledged masterpieces such as Desert Solitaire There is even an excerpt from a novel he was working on in 1984, eventually published as The Fool's Progress Scattered throughout are the author's own petroglyph-style sketches Abbey went on publishing new work until his untimely death in 1989 at age sixty, so this new edition includes a selection of later Abbey: a chapter from Hayduke Lives!, the hilarious sequel to The Monkey Wrench Gang; excerpts from his revealing journals; a little-known account of a trip to the Sea of Cortez; and examples of his poetry A new foreword by Doug Peacock --Abbey's close friend and the model for the flamboyant activist Hayduke--offers a fond appreciation of this largerthan- life figure in American letters.  2005 г 440 стр ISBN 1578051215.

Book Description Climate change is one of the most challenging issues of our time As key sites in the production and management of emissions of greenhouse gases, cities will be crucial for the implementation of international agreements and national policies on climate change This book provides a critical analysis of the role of cities in addressing оджцг climate change and the prospects for urban sustainability In the post-Rio era, international organizations and transnational networks have promoted the need for local action on global environmental issues Part I considers the implications of these developments for understanding global environmental governance and urban sustainability It outlines international and national responses to climate change, and documents the evidence to date on local responses to climate change, examining in detail the international Cities for Climate Protection programme Part II presents a series of case-studies drawn from this transnational network in the UK, USA and Australia Each case-study examines the development and implementation of local climate change policy, focusing on the issues of energy conservation, planning and transport Part III compares the experience of the case-study cities in addressing climatechange, and assesses the implications of these findings for urban sustainability and global environmental governance Cities and Climate Change is the first in-depth analysis of the role of cities in addressing climate change The book argues that key challenges concerning the resources and powers of local government, as well as conflicts between local goals for economic development and climate change mitigation, have restricted the level of local action on climate change These findings have significant implications for the prospects of mitigating climate change and achieving urban sustainability This book provides a valuable interdisciplinary analysis of these issues, and will appeal to students and researchers interested in sustainability at local and globalscales.  2005 г 237 стр ISBN 0415359163.

Book DescriptionDepending on who is telling it, the history of Euro-American farmers on the Great Plains has been a story of either agricultural triumph or ecological failurean optimistic tale of taming nature for human purposes or a dire account of disrupting nature and suffering the environmental consequences In On the Great Plains, author оджхш Geoff Cunfer poses an alternative scenario: that people were not the masters of nature on the Great Plains Land use in America's vast interior prairies has stayed remarkably stable throughout the twentieth century, changing little as droughts came and went, as farmers shifted from horses to tractors, and as federal subsidies and fluctuating crop prices transformed the economics of farming An equilibrium between natural and human forces emerged as farmers plowed and planted the same amount of cropland during most of this period, maintaining two-thirds of the Great Plains in unplowed, native vegetation To support his theory, Cunfer looks at the entireGreat Plains (450 counties in ten states), tapping historical agricultural census data paired with GIS mapping to illuminate land use on the Great Plains over 130 years Coupled with several community and family case studies, this database allows Cunfer to reassess the interaction between farmers and nature in the Great Plains agricultural landscape.  2005 г 304 стр ISBN 1585444014.
