Environmental justice recognizes that environmental benefits and burdens should be distributed fairly, and that the people making policy decisions should incorporate the views of those most often harmed: people of color, Indigenous populations, low-income communities, and those who are underserved and disenfranchised for other reasons such as age, gender, or disability. It encompasses not only traditional environmental issues like clean air and clean water, but also social issues such as employment, nutrition, and access to health care.

Story0
From the plains of ancient Mesopotamia to the rolling hills of medieval England to the vast sheep farms of modern-day Australia, sheep have been central to the human story. Starting with our Neolithic ancestors' first forays into sheep-rearing nearly 10,000 years ago, these remarkable animals have fed us, clothed us, changed our diet and languages, helped us to win wars, decorated our homes and financed the conquest of large swathes of the earth.

In this Very Short Introduction, Nick Jenkins explores our historic investment in the exploitation of fossil energy resources and their current importance, and discusses the implications of our increasing rate of energy use. He considers the widespread acceptance by scientists and policy makers that our energy systems must reduce emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases, and looks forward to the radical changes in fuel technology that will be necessary to continue to provide energy supplies in a sustainable manner, and extend access across the developing world.

In this Very Short Introduction, Paul B. Wignall looks at the causes and nature of extinctions, past and present, and the factors that can make a species vulnerable. Summarizing what we know about all of the major and minor extinction events, he examines some of the greatest debates in modern science, such as the relative role of climate and humans in the death of the Pleistocene megafauna, including mammoths and giant ground sloths, and the roles that global warming, ocean acidification, and deforestation are playing in present-day extinctions.

This Very Short Introduction takes listeners into the inferno of a racing pyroclastic current, and the heart of a moving lava flow, as understood through the latest scientific research. Exploring how volcanologists forensically decipher how volcanoes work, Michael Branney and Jan Zalasiewicz explain what we do (and don't) understand about the fundamental mechanisms of volcanism, and consider how volcanoes interact with other physical processes on the Earth, with life, and with human society.

Negli ultimi anni sentiamo parlare spesso di "riscaldamento globale". Si discute innanzitutto sulla esistenza stessa del fenomeno, su quali siano le sue cause, quali le conseguenze per il pianeta e quali le misure per contrastare il problema. Qui cercheremo di chiarire alcuni aspetti fondamentali legati al riscaldamento globale, partendo proprio dalla sua definizione e dagli argomenti di coloro che affermano o negano la realtà del fenomeno.

Più volte, negli ultimi decenni, l'Italia è diventata protagonista in negativo delle prime pagine dei giornali, nazionali e internazionali, a causa della cosiddetta "emergenza rifiuti". Le città d'arte del Belpaese sommerse dai rifiuti sono un'immagine che purtroppo ricorre periodicamente, suscitando l'interesse momentaneo della classe politica di turno per poi ritornare nell'oblio senza che sia stata trovata una soluzione definitiva.

Il mondo moderno dipende ancora pesantemente dal carbone, dal petrolio e dal gas naturale per procurarsi l'energia di cui ha bisogno. I carburanti fossili non sono però rinnovabili. Questo significa che queste fonti di energia tenderanno a esaurirsi, diventando sempre più costose e più difficili da reperire. Ai ritmi di consumo attuali, il carbone potrebbe durare ancora un secolo e il metano forse due. Dall'altra parte, abbiamo le energie rinnovabili, come quella solare o quella eolica.
