Encyclopedia of Sustainability Vol. 1: Environment and Ecology

Robert William Collin

This three-volume encyclopedia explores the concept of sustainability in the contexts of the environment, economics, and justice.

This expansive encyclopedia breaks new ground, giving definition and focus to an urgent and much-talked-about topic that is extraordinarily wide ranging and all too often misunderstood. As the first major reference work in its field, the three comprehensive volumes span the entire scope of sustainability from ecological concepts to financial concerns to public policy and community action, giving readers a solid foundation from which to think critically about efforts to make a more sustainable world.
