Book Description
A dam proposal sparked the first great conservation battle in the United States when John Muir fought to safeguard Hetch Hetchy Valley in Yosemite National Park. Since then, people have worked to preserve free-flowing rivers from Florida to Alaska, and in doing so, they have changed the way natural resources are managed in America. In Endangered Rivers, Tim Palmer traces the growth of this movement and he chronicles the development of a national consciousness that values our rivers as lifelines for wildlife, fisheries, parks, wilderness, recreation, and communities. Based on careful research and hundreds of interviews, Palmer's information-packed narrative is regarded as a classic in the field of conservation. The first edition of this book is now updated and includes two new chapters that chart the course of conservation during the past twenty years and explore how the movement to protect rivers will likely change in the twenty-first century. This book will fascinate all who care about rivers and it will engage those who seek to understand environmental history, resources management, and the evolution of government programs in response to people's changing needs.

ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
This directory profiles environmental organizations and other entities involved with environmental preservation, focusing on the US and on national (rather than regional) groups and giving only limited coverage to research organizations within universities and to higher education listings (environmentally-related degree programs). Each of the 493 entries provides a summary of the organization's mission and programs, its budget numbers, and contact information. The guide primarily lists non-governmental organizations and government agencies, with smaller sections on the United Nations, business groups, labor unions, and opposing groups. An index would have improved the usefulness of the reference. The author is an environmental engineer and founder of the non-profit organization, Environmental Frontlines.
