Tipping points may be dangerous for societies and economies, especially if the prevailing governing arrangements are not designed either to anticipate them or adapt to their arrival. Tipping points can also be transformational of cultures and behaviours so that societies can learn to adapt and to alter their outlooks and mores in favour of accommodating to more sustainable ways of living. This volume examines scientific, economic and social analyses of tipping points, and the spiritual and creative approaches to identifying and anticipating them. The authors focus on climate change, ice melt, tropical forest drying and alterations in oceanic and atmospheric circulations. They also look closely at various aspects of human use of the planet, especially food production, and at the loss of biodiversity, where alterations to natural cycles may be creating convulsive couplings of tipping points. They survey the various institutional aspects of politics, economics, culture and religion to see why such dangers persist.British Academy original paperback.Social stabilitySocial aspectsSocial changeSocial aspectsSocial evolutionClimatic changesSocial aspectsFood securitySocial aspectsSociology & Social HistoryHILCCSocial SciencesHILCCSocial ChangeHILCCSocial stabilitySocial aspectsSocial changeSocial aspectsSocial evolutionClimatic changesSocial aspects.Food securitySocial aspects.Sociology & Social HistorySocial SciencesSocial Change303.4O'Riordan TimothyLenton Tim(Timothy),British Academy,PQKBUkMaJRUBOOK9910213857003321Addressing tipping points for a precarious future2002539UNINA02158nam0 2200373 i 450 VAN005588620240209113319.92808-247-1677-9978-08-247-1677-620061113d1999 |0itac50 baengUS|||| |||||Degenerate differential equations in Banach spacesAngelo Favini, Atsushi YagiNew YorkDekker1999XI, 312 p.23 cm001VAN00518802001 Pure and applied mathematicsa program of monographs, textbooks and lecture notes210 New YorkDekker1970-1981 ; [poi] Wiley21535-XXPartial differential equations [MSC 2020]VANC019763MF34-XXOrdinary differential equations [MSC 2020]VANC021251MF35K65Degenerate parabolic equations [MSC 2020]VANC021672MF35L80Degenerate hyperbolic equations [MSC 2020]VANC023005MF34G10Linear differential equations in abstract spaces [MSC 2020]VANC024588MF34G20Nonlinear differential equations in abstract spaces [MSC 2020]VANC024637MFUSNew YorkVANL000011FaviniAngeloVANV04437956805YagiAtsushiVANV044380725853Dekker <editore>VANV108181650ITSOL20240216RICAhttps://books.google.it/books?id=eOP_HNx34QkC&printsec=frontcover&dq=Degenerate+differential+equations+in+Banach+spaces&hl=it&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjW0JTXhNLXAhUGaxQKHU77Df8Q6AEIJjAA#v=onepage&q&f=falsehttps://books.google.it/books?id=eOP_HNx34QkC&printsec=frontcover&dq=Degenerate+differential+equations+in+Banach+spaces&hl=it&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjW0JTXhNLXAhUGaxQKHU77Df8Q6AEIJjAA#v=onepage&q&f=falseBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI MATEMATICA E FISICAIT-CE0120VAN08VAN0055886BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI MATEMATICA E FISICA08PREST 35-XX 1345 08 4893 I 20061113 Degenerate differential equations in Banach spaces1424674UNICAMPANIA
