This timely book exposes and explores this colossal environmental cost and the dangerous position the world is now in. Standing up for a Sustainable World is written by and about key individuals who have not only understood the threats to our planet, but also become witness to them and confronted them. Combining the voices of leading academics as well as climate change and environmental activists, entrepreneurs and investors, the book highlights the urgent action that needs to be taken to foster sustainable, resilient and inclusive development in the face of powerful systemic forces. Chapters look ahead to a better path for human wellbeing, security and dignity, offering insight to ways this can be created. The book as a whole shares the visions and hopes of those fighting in a myriad of ways to make a sustainable world, attempting to tip the balance away from the crushing loss of biodiversity, rising sea levels and increasing global mean temperature, whilst increasing living standards across all dimensions, particularly for the poorest people. An imperative read for those concerned about the future of our planet, this book showcases not only why urgent action is now imperative, but also what changes are necessary for a sustainable, resilient and equitable world. It offers crucial insights for those interested in the dynamics of political action, in how change occurs, and in effective communication. Environmental economics, as well as environmental studies and human geography students and scholars more broadly will find this an invigorating read"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aEnvironmental economics 606 $aBiodiversity conservation 606 $aSustainability 606 $aClimatic changes 606 $aEnvironmental degradation 606 $aBiodiversity$xClimatic factors 606 $aBiodiversity$xEffects of air pollution on 610 $asustainable development 610 $aresilience 610 $ahuman wellbeing 610 $aenvironmental activism 610 $apoverty reduction 610 $ainclusive development 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aEnvironmental economics. 615 0$aBiodiversity conservation. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aClimatic changes. 615 0$aEnvironmental degradation. 615 0$aBiodiversity$xClimatic factors. 615 0$aBiodiversity$xEffects of air pollution on. 676 $a338.927 700 $aClaude Henry$4auth$01355018 702 $aHenry$b Claude 702 $aRockström$b Johan 702 $aStern$b Nicholas 712 02$aEdward Elgar Publishing, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkMaJRU 801 2$bTH-BaUNE 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910427733403321 996 $aStanding up for a sustainable world$93359042 997 $aUNINA 999 $axxx$cu
