Blue Ridge Commons
Author: Kathryn Newfont
Publisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 0820341258
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
"In the late twentieth century, residents of the Blue Ridge mountains in western North Carolina fiercely resisted certain environmental efforts, even while launching aggressive initiatives of their own. Kathryn Newfont provides context for those events by examining the environmental history of this region over the course of three hundred years, identifying what she calls commons environmentalism--a cultural strain of conservation in American history that has gone largely unexplored. Efforts in the 1970s to expand federal wilderness areas in the Pisgah and Nantahala national forests generated strong opposition. For many mountain residents the idea of unspoiled wilderness seemed economically unsound, historically dishonest, and elitist. Newfont shows that local people's sense of commons environmentalism required access to the forests that they viewed as semipublic places for hunting, fishing, and working. Policies that removed large tracts from use were perceived as 'enclosure' and resisted. Incorporating deep archival work and years of interviews and conversations with Appalachian residents, Blue Ridge Commons reveals a tradition of people building robust forest protection movements on their own terms."--p. [4] of cover.

Blue Frontier
Author: David Helvarg
Publisher: Helvarg
ISBN:
Category : Marine resources conservation
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
The 2005 hurricane season has made the author's case: public attention is focused as never before on inappropriate coastal development, misuse of wetlands, risks of offshore drilling and oil supply, and global warming impacts. 1/3 of the new edition has been revised. It includes book reports on the findings of two blue-ribbon commissions: Pew Oceans Comm. 2004 and the US Comm. on Ocean Policy 2004. In this compelling book, which Bill McKibben calls the most comprehensive account available of the state of our nation's oceans, and the best reporting on how they got that way, veteran journalist David Helvarg fuses his passion for the sea and his reportorial savvy into a panoramic chronicle of America's maritime history and the challenges that our coastal and marine environments face today.
