Today environmental issues are part of daily life, a feature of
the modern world almost everyone now recognises. Contemporary
environmentalism has promoted a way of speaking and thinking about
the environment that was not possible or imaginable decades
ago.
Environmentalism Since 1945 provides a concise introduction to
the greening of politics, science, economics and culture in the
post-war period. It covers key issues such as the:
- birth of the environmental movement
- development of global environmental governance
- climate science and the rise of climate scepticism
- Green New Deal and the call for prosperity without growth
- greening of mainstream culture and efforts to change attitudes
and behaviour
- challenges the environmental movement will have to address to
continue to be a force change.
Each chapter provides a historical perspective, anchoring topics
to real events, influential ideas, and prominent figures. An
essential introduction for all those interested in the history of
environmentalism.
