Book excerpt: An Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA) is a procedure for evaluating the impact of proposed activities on the environment. In modern Africa, EIAs are a growing reality and a matter of law in 22 sub-Saharan African countries. This volume examines various aspects of EIA legislation in these countries, including: definitions and prescribed activities; public participation and consultation; the review process and the quality of EIA reports; monitoring and enforcement; compatibility; and transboundary issues. It highlights the role and degree of public participation for the further development of EIA law and policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La réforme du lycée a instauré trois enseignements de spécialité en classe de Première dont deux sont poursuivis en Terminale. Cette nouvelle organisation plus modulaire doit contribuer à l'orientation et améliorer l'accès et la réussite dans l'enseignement supérieur. L'enseignement de spécialité Éducation physique, pratiques et culture sportives (EPPCS) créé à la rentrée 2021 prolonge l'enseignement commun pour des élèves ayant une appétence pour la pratique physique ou un projet professionnel en lien avec les métiers du corps et du sport. Il s'organise autour de l'approfondissement de la pratique physique, de l'acquisition de connaissances et de la conduite de projets individuels et collectifs. Pour les enseignants, la conduite de l'enseignement de spécialité est exigeante. Il s'agit de choisir et formaliser des contenus respectueux des thématiques du programme et de concevoir des activités pédagogiques suscitant l'engagement des élèves. Cet ouvrage détaille un corpus de connaissances pertinentes et accessibles dans le volume d'enseignement imparti. Il s'accompagne d'un grand nombre d'illustrations qui pourront être reprises dans les différents temps d'enseignement. Enfin, des exemples d'activités pédagogiques sont détaillés en soulignant leur intérêt et les contraintes apportées par leur mise en oeuvre. En mettant en relation expériences pratiques et connaissances théoriques et méthodologiques, l'EPPCS a pour ambition de développer une culture sportive riche permettant aux élèves de comprendre et de se situer dans la complexité du monde. Il est l'occasion de construire un regard lucide sur la pratique sportive contemporaine et sur l'engagement sportif en tant que pratiquant, dirigeant, arbitre, organisateur, spectateur... Les contenus travaillés sont autant d'occasions de développer des habiletés plurielles (esprit d'équipe, goût de l'effort, sens de l'initiative, confiance en soi...) essentielles à la réussite des élèves de lycée dans leur parcours d'étudiant et leur vie future.

The model is available as a computer program for PC or Data General computer.
Download or read book Governing Climate Change written by Andrew Jordan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change governance is in a state of enormous flux. New and more dynamic forms of governing are appearing around the international climate regime centred on the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). They appear to be emerging spontaneously from the bottom up, producing a more dispersed pattern of governing, which Nobel Laureate Elinor Ostrom famously described as 'polycentric'. This book brings together contributions from some of the world's foremost experts to provide the first systematic test of the ability of polycentric thinking to explain and enhance societal attempts to govern climate change. It is ideal for researchers in public policy, international relations, environmental science, environmental management, politics, law and public administration. It will also be useful on advanced courses in climate policy and governance, and for practitioners seeking incisive summaries of developments in particular sub-areas and sectors. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Download or read book Ecology and the Environment written by Russell K. Monson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-10-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, plant biology is considered from the perspective of plants and their surrounding environment, including both biotic and abiotic interactions. The intended audience is undergraduate students in the middle or final phases of their programs of study. Topics are developed to provide a rudimentary understanding of how plant-environment interactions span multiple spatiotemporal scales, and how this rudimentary knowledge can be applied to understand the causes of ecosystem vulnerabilities in the face of global climate change and expansion of natural resource use by human societies. In all chapters connections are made from smaller to larger scales of ecological organization, providing a foundation for understanding plant ecology. Where relevant, environmental threats to ecological systems are identified and future research needs are discussed. As future generations take on the responsibility for managing ecosystem goods and services, one of the most effective resources that can be passed on is accumulated knowledge of how organisms, populations, species, communities and ecosystems function and interact across scales of organization. This book is intended to provide some of that knowledge, and hopefully provide those generations with the ability to avoid some of the catastrophic environmental mistakes that prior generations have made.

Download or read book Fire on Earth written by Andrew C. Scott and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earth is the only planet known to have fire. The reason is both simple and profound: fire exists because Earth is the only planet to possess life as we know it. Fire is an expression of life on Earth and an index of life’s history. Few processes are as integral, unique, or ancient. Fire on Earth puts fire in its rightful place as an integral part of the study of geology, biology, human history, physics, and global chemistry. Fire is ubiquitous in various forms throughout Earth, and belongs as part of formal inquiries about our world. In recent years fire literature has multiplied exponentially; dedicated journals exist and half a dozen international conferences are held annually. A host of formal sciences, or programs announcing interdisciplinary intentions, are willing to consider fire. Wildfire also appears routinely in media reporting. This full-colour text, containing over 250 illustrations of fire in all contexts, is designed to provide a synthesis of contemporary thinking; bringing together the most powerful concepts and disciplinary voices to examine, in an international setting, why planetary fire exists, how it works, and why it looks the way it does today. Students, lecturers, researchers and professionals interested in the physical, ecological and historical characteristics of fire will find this book, and accompanying web-based material, essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in all related disciplines, for general interest and for providing an interdisciplinary foundation for further study. A comprehensive approach to the history, behaviour and ecological effects of fire on earth Timely introduction to this important subject, with relevance for global climate change, biodiversity loss and the evolution of human culture. Provides a foundation for the interdisciplinary field of Fire Research Authored by an international team of leading experts in the field Associated website provides additional resources
