Growing Populations, Changing Landscapes
Author: National Academy of SciencesPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309170729
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 323
Book Description
As the world's population exceeds an incredible 6 billion people, governmentsâ€"and scientistsâ€"everywhere are concerned about the prospects for sustainable development. The science academies of the three most populous countries have joined forces in an unprecedented effort to understand the linkage between population growth and land-use change, and its implications for the future. By examining six sites ranging from agricultural to intensely urban to areas in transition, the multinational study panel asks how population growth and consumption directly cause land-use change, and explore the general nature of the forces driving the transformations. Growing Populations, Changing Landscapes explains how disparate government policies with unintended consequences and globalization effects that link local land-use changes to consumption patterns and labor policies in distant countries can be far more influential than simple numerical population increases. Recognizing the importance of these linkages can be a significant step toward more effective environmental management.

The concept of sustainable development was described in the United Nations’ 1987 Bruntland Commission Report as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” This new volume presents an eclectic selection of chapters that aim to integrate social, economic, and environmental objectives. Through studies and research, the book presents the concept of sustainable development in various manifestations along with its challenges and advantages, looking at sustainability in business, manufacturing, finance, etc. It explores how new financial technology (or Fintech) can help foster sustainable finance and the role of digitization and AI in achieving sustainability goals. It considers the importance of cultural sustainability and presents sustainability-promoting strategies affecting the environment, such as addressing the mitigation of marine plastic pollution and reusing plastic waste to make eco-bricks. Other topics include development of sustainable smart cities, a case study of sustainability at the local level, such as marigold cultivation for socio-economic sustainability, and more.
