Download or read book Why Forests Why Now written by Frances Seymour and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tropical forests are an undervalued asset in meeting the greatest global challenges of our time—averting climate change and promoting development. Despite their importance, tropical forests and their ecosystems are being destroyed at a high and even increasing rate in most forest-rich countries. The good news is that the science, economics, and politics are aligned to support a major international effort over the next five years to reverse tropical deforestation. Why Forests? Why Now? synthesizes the latest evidence on the importance of tropical forests in a way that is accessible to anyone interested in climate change and development and to readers already familiar with the problem of deforestation. It makes the case to decisionmakers in rich countries that rewarding developing countries for protecting their forests is urgent, affordable, and achievable.

Download or read book Logging the Globe written by Patricia Marchak and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1995-09-18 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patricia Marchak examines issues particular to the northern and southern regions and the global effects of trends in each region, using British Columbia, Brazil, Chile, Indonesia, and Thailand as full case studies and Malaysia, Myanmar, and other south-east Asian regions as shorter case studies. She also examines Japanese forestry and the Japanese paper industry. Logging the Globe provides in-depth analyses of the restructuring of the global division of labour; the effect of Japanese demand for pulp; changes in employment, production, land policies, and markets in northern countries; deforestation; plantation forestry; and the influence of European, North American, and Japanese companies on tropical forests and peoples. Marchak considers whether industrial forestry is sustainable and suggests ways in which global demand for forest products can be met in more efficient and more nearly sustainable ways. Logging the Globe presents a global picture of a critically important environmental and social issue. It will be of great interest to professionals in the industry, policy makers and environmental activists, and those concerned with environmental and social issues.

Download or read book Forests Are Gold written by Pamela D. McElwee and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forests Are Gold examines the management of Vietnam's forests in the tumultuous twentieth century—from French colonialism to the recent transition to market-oriented economics—as the country united, prospered, and transformed people and landscapes. Forest policy has rarely been about ecology or conservation for nature’s sake, but about managing citizens and society, a process Pamela McElwee terms “environmental rule.” Untangling and understanding these practices and networks of rule illuminates not just thorny issues of environmental change, but also the birth of Vietnam itself.
Download or read book Environmental Change in South East Asia written by Raymond Bryant and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-08-03 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental Change in South-East Asia brings together scholars, journalists, consultants and NGO activists to explore the interaction of people, politics and ecology. Ostensibly "green" activities - plantation forestry, eco-tourism, hydro-electricity - are revealed as guises used by elites to promote their own political and economic interests. Highlighting fatal flaws in presently exclusive economic and ecological approaches, the authors stress that neither the quest for sustainable development nor the process of environmental change itself can be understood without reference to political processes.

Download or read book Deforestation in Viet Nam written by Rodolphe de Koninck and published by IDRC. This book was released on 1999 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication begins with an overview of the nature and magnitude of the deforestation problem in south-east Asia and the related problem of loss of biodiversity. Chapter 2 discusses the specific case of deforestation in Viet Nam and the possible factors involved. Chapter 3 describes the implementation of a research project on the fundamental and instrumental causes of that deforestation, with the hypothesis that agricultural expansion is the central instrument of deforestation in that country. This is followed by presentation of the results of the research, which focused on two provinces (Tuyen Quang and Lam Dong). Results presented and discussed include changes in land use, changes in population and its distribution, expansion of settlement, the impact of firewood collection and commercial logging, agricultural impacts, and changes in biodiversity. The final chapter discusses the magnitude of the challenge of deforestation in Viet Nam and suggests directions for further research.
