There is very little argument that the world is facing severe
environmental challenges. Ongoing air and water pollution,
increasing energy consumption, and the depletion of natural
resources have all placed considerable stress on the capacity of
our environment to support the present quality of human life in a
sustainable manner. Ensuring a Sustainable Future does what few
previous works have: it examines these trends' disproportionate
impact on the poor and the economically viable solutions that can
serve to remedy them - solutions that simultaneously address
environmental and economic problems. This gap in previous research,
evidence, and writing has left low-income countries often unwilling
to take on major environmental problems and many poor communities
believing they faced impossible choices between improving the
environment in which they live and increasing the jobs and income
available. Bringing together evidence-based recommendations and
in-depth case studies of successful policies and programs around
the world, Ensuring a Sustainable Future examines innovative
solutions to this crucial challenge. In doing so, it addresses a
comprehensive range of environmental sustainability challenges
affecting low-, middle-, and high-income countries.
