In more recent years, however, activists, researchers, and policymakers have increasingly turned to mobilizing older technologies in their pursuit of sustainability. In fascinating case studies ranging from the Early Modern secondhand trade to utopian visions of human-powered vehicles, the contributions gathered here explore the historical fortunes of two such technologies—bicycling and waste recycling—tracing their development over time and providing valuable context for the policy successes and failures of today.Environment in history ;v. 7.CyclingHistoryCyclingEnvironmental aspectsRecycling (Waste, etc.)HistoryRecycling (Waste, etc.)Environmental aspectsSustainabilityactivists.bicycling and waste recycling.context for policy today.exploration of bicycling.exploration of waste recycling.historical.mobilizing older technologies.policymakers.public discussions of environment.pursuit of sustainability.researchers.tracing development.CyclingHistory.CyclingEnvironmental aspects.Recycling (Waste, etc.)History.Recycling (Waste, etc.)Environmental aspects.Sustainability.363.72/8209ZO 4340rvkOldenziel Ruth1958-Trischler HelmuthMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827517903321Cycling and recycling4110068UNINA
