Details:
Society and the Environment explores today's environmental controversies within a socio-organizational context. The book outlines the contours of pragmatic environmentalism and addresses issues where ecology and society collide, such as population growth and its associated demands for food and energy. It examines the personal health impacts of ecological issues, such as climate change, and delves into the social and structural dynamics, including political economy and international legal systems, that perpetuate environmental problems.
This interdisciplinary text includes a three-part structure in each chapter, covering "fast facts," examining the issue's implications, and offering balanced real-world solutions. The second edition introduces "Movement Matters" boxes highlighting grassroots movements that have influenced legislation. Discussion questions and key terms enhance the text's value, making it an ideal learning tool for environmental sociology courses.
