This handbook presents a timely and comprehensive overview of
theory, data, methods and research findings that connect human
population dynamics and environmental context. It presents regional
summaries of empirical findings on migration and environmental
connections and summarizes environmental impacts of migration -
such as urbanization and deforestation. It also offers background
on the health implications of environmental conditions such as
climate change, natural disasters, scarcity of natural resources,
as well as on resource scarcity and fertility, gender
considerations in population and environment, and the connections
between population size, growth, composition and carbon emissions.
This handbook helps readers to better understand the complexities
within population-environment connections, in addition to some of
the opportunities and challenges within environmental demography.
As such this collection is an invaluable resource for students,
researchers, and policy analysts in the areas of demography,
migration, fertility, health and mortality, as well as
environmental, global and development studies.
