Environmental Priorities and Poverty Reduction
Author: Ernesto Sánchez Triana
Publisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 0821368885
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 564
Book Description
Environmental degradation is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and decreased productivity. Urban and indoor air pollution; inadequate water supply, sanitation, and hygiene; natural disasters (mainly floods and landslides); and land degradation are the environmental problems associated with the highest social and economic costs, falling most heavily on vulnerable people, especially poor children under five years old. This book begins by exploring institutional change and environmental priorities in Colombia over the past 50 years, a time of substantial progress in environmental protection and rapid transition from a largely rural to a highly urbanised economy. Part 2 assesses the burden of disease rooted in inadequate water supply, sanitation, and hygiene; poor air quality; and natural disasters; and the environmental management practices to reduce that burden. A discussion of the environmental costs of rapid and unplanned urbanisation is also included. Part 3 assesses the sustainable management of Colombia's rich endowment of natural resources.

UMA METODOLOGIA DE GESTÃO SOCIOAMBIENTAL PARA O SOCIOECOSSISTEMA BACIA HIDROGRÁFICA RIO DOS SINOS
Author: Rodolfo González Ortega
Publisher: Infinite Study
ISBN:
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 131
Book Description
A bacia do Rio dos Sinos, teve um crescimento contínuo de assentamentos humanos e, sobretudo no último século, a pressão antrópica modificou a paisagem, passando de Mata Atlântica para terras agropecuárias, indústrias, cidades e uma grande rede de rodovias. Isto erodiu o ecossistema da bacia com poluição das águas superficiais e subterrâneas, com a perda de biodiversidade e uma diminuição na variabilidade genética das populações, o que também trouxe um efeito negativo sobre a sociedade.

The Americas and Oceania: Assessing Sustainability
Author: Ray C. Anderson
Publisher: Berkshire Publishing Group
ISBN: 1933782730
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 373
Book Description
The Americas and Oceania: Assessing Sustainability provides extensive coverage of sustainability practices in two regions linked culturally and historically by their relative isolation before the Columbian exchange, by their colonization after it, and by the challenges of pollution, resource overuse, and environmental degradation. Regional experts and international scholars focus on environmental history in areas such as the South Pacific islands, now particularly threatened by rising ocean levels due to climate change, and on countries whose governments and corporations can play a major role in promoting or discouraging sustainable choices: Brazil, an emergent power on the world stage; the United States, the world's third most populous nation; and New Zealand, seemingly on its way to becoming an enviable model of sustainable development.
