Global Environmental Problems: Causes, Consequences, and Potential
Solutions provides an overview of the main environmental problems
facing today's world. While many books on the environment place a
heavy emphasis on political actors, processes, and institutions,
Global Environmental Problems highlights not only environmental
actors, but the causes of and potential solutions to environmental
crises. Each chapter of the text uses a specific case study to
address a specific issue. These include wildlife depletion,
tropical deforestation, marine fisheries depletion, climate change,
water pollution and shortages, and toxic waste. Students will also
learn about less familiar, but critical issues such as dry land
deforestation, the environmental impacts of agriculture,
desertification, and population and urbanization. Global
Environmental Problems is well suited to courses on environmental
policy. The book uses an accessible, interdisciplinary approach,
which also makes it appropriate for courses on environmental
history, conservation, and international relations. In addition,
Global Environmental Problems will be of interest to the general
reader who cares about the environment and the problems facing it.
