This highly readable and challenging text sets out some important topical issues that tells us we are not making a very good job of it. \u003cbr\u003eFrom the tropical rainforests to the teeming cities of the developing world and the energy hungry nations of Europe and North America, One World for One Earth shows that many of today's environmental problems can only be understood in terms of both the physical and the social processes involved. \u003cbr\u003eAt present we are in a vicious circle. Uneven development creates problems of affluence in some areas and problems of poverty in others In both, the environment suffers. Independent local action has a crucial part to play, but to be really effective, sustainable development needs a new context which can only be put in place by international government co-operation. \u003cbr\u003eThis book, by going beyond the conventional accounts of environmental problems, provides a basis for action. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOriginally published in 1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Sarre,Paul Smith,Paul Smith with Eleanor Morris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415849772\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415849777\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/11\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Philip Sarre","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447747948799,"sku":"9780415849777","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_203049ed-81e1-4663-800c-8fa6108f0471.jpg?v=1777234540","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/one-world-for-one-earth-philip-sarre-9780415849777","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
