Ebook – Berkshire Encyclopedia of Sustainability 10/10: The Future of Sustainability Edition (PDF Instant Download)

The Future of Sustainability, the tenth and final volume of the Berkshire Encyclopedia of Sustainability, brings together essays from a group of renowned scholars and well-known environmentalist thinkers. Crucial topics are considered in terms of the future of humanity and its relationship with the natural world, from aging and world population to the future of nuclear energy, cities, energy, agriculture, water, food security, mobility, and migration; the role of higher education; and the concept of collective learning. The volume’s authors confront big issues such as “progress” and how to view the Earth’s changing climate from the larger perspective of “big history.” The volume concludes with a resource guide for teaching materials at several levels, a directory of leading undergraduate- and graduate-level programs in sustainability, and a combined index of the ten-volume set.
