Sommario/riassunto

En août 2011 s’est tenue à Cerisy-la-Salle une décade « Narrations d’un nouveau siècle : romans et récits français, 2001-2010 » dont ce livre constitue les actes. À quoi ressemble une littérature qui accorde la part belle au roman mais sans exclusive générique, dans la concurrence de récits empruntant à tous les genres et de multiples arts ? Une littérature française parce qu’écrite en langue française, mais travaillée de l’intérieur et renvoyée à sa propre étrangeté par les évolutions de cette langue et les porosités multiculturelles que suscitent aujourd’hui des échanges mondialisés ? L’ouvrage rassemble les points de vue d’universitaires européens, canadiens et américains. Il se veut un observatoire critique des évolutions en cours de la littérature et un laboratoire théorique ouvert à différentes approches permettant d’en mesurer les enjeux en temps réel.

Sommario/riassunto

This book delves into the anthropogenic activities responsible for environmental hazards, their compensation, and potential mitigation strategies. It sheds light on the major contributors to the climate change issues aggravated by non-sustainable practices for the overexploitation of natural resources. Critical topics such as high emissions in primary mining, the recovery of energy-critical metals by urban mining, solid waste management, and forest conservation are explored, offering insights into the urgent challenges we face. Amidst the rapid demand for resources and the expansion of human habitats, the book emphasizes the need for new approaches to natural resource management and introspection of our actions. Experts in the field discuss existing anthropogenic environmental hazards in detail, alongside environmental compensation, and effective mitigation approaches. The book begins with a chapter dedicated to risk assessment in primary mining activities for precious metals, proposing potential routes for mitigation. Chapter 2 focuses on assessing and mitigating the environmental footprints of energy-critical metals used in permanent magnets. In Chapter 3, a case study examines sustainable resource utilization through end-of-life room air conditioner recycling. Additional chapters provide critical insights into: The environmental impacts of e-waste and government policies for responsible management Hazards associated with industrial effluents and corresponding mitigation strategies The role of roadside plants in phytoremediation of heavy metal pollution Sustainable utilization of anthropogenic coal fly ash through mechanical and chemical activation Environmental damages resulting from the mismanagement of municipal solid waste Environmental problems and remediation strategies for anthropogenic biomass waste Challenges in sustainable municipal solid waste management and suggestions for environmental risk mitigation The book concludes with a chapter discussing collaborative governance and non-monetary compensation mechanisms for sustainable forest management. Given its breadth, this book serves as an indispensable resource for researchers, policymakers, and environmental professionals seeking sustainable approaches to tackle pressing environmental challenges.
