This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over half the world's population now deemed to be urbanised, cities are assuming a larger role in political debates about the security and sustainability of the global food system. Hence, planning for sustainable food production and consumption is becoming an increasingly important issue for planners, policymakers, designers, farmers, suppliers, activists, business and scientists alike. The rapid growth of the food planning movement owes much to the fact that food, because of its unique, multi-functional character, helps to bring people together from all walks of life. In the wider contexts of global climate change, resource depletion, a burgeoning world population, competing food production systems and diet-related public health concerns, new paradigms for urban and regional planning capable of supporting sustainable and equitable food systems are urgently needed. This book addresses this urgent need. By working at a range of scales and with a variety of practical and theoretical models, this book reviews and elaborates definitions of sustainable food systems, and begins to define ways of achieving them. To this end 4 different themes have been defined as entry-points into the discussion of 'sustainable food planning'. These are (1) urban agriculture, (2) integrating health, environment and society, (3) food in urban design and planning and (4) urban food governance.
Download or read book Local Food Systems Concepts Impacts and Issues written by Steve Martinez and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive overview of local food systems explores alternative definitions of local food, estimates market size and reach, describes the characteristics of local consumers and producers, and examines early indications of the economic and health impacts of local food systems. Defining ¿local¿ based on marketing arrangements, such as farmers selling directly to consumers at regional farmers¿ markets or to schools, is well recognized. Statistics suggest that local food markets account for a small, but growing, share of U.S. agricultural production. For smaller farms, direct marketing to consumers accounts for a higher percentage of their sales than for larger farms. Charts and tables.

Download or read book Animal Cities written by Professor Peter J Atkins and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-10-28 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animal Cities builds upon a recent surge of interest about animals in the urban context. Considering animals in urban settings is now a firmly established area of study and this book presents a number of valuable case studies that illustrate some of the perspectives that may be adopted. Having an ‘urban history’ flavour, the book follows a fourfold agenda. First, the opening chapters look at working and productive animals that lived and died in nineteenth-century cities such as London, Edinburgh and Paris. The argument here is that their presence yields insights into evolving understandings of the category ‘urban’ and what made a good city. Second, there is a consideration of nineteenth-century animal spectacles, which influenced contemporary interpretations of the urban experience. Third, the theme of contested animal spaces in the city is explored further with regard to backyard chickens in suburban Australia. Finally, there is discussion of the problem of the public companion animal and its role in changing attitudes to public space, illustrated with a chapter on dog-walking in Victorian and Edwardian London. Animal Cities makes a significant contribution to animal studies and is of interest to historical geographers, urban, cultural, social and economic historians and historians of policy and planning.
Download or read book Les Eaux continentales written by Ghislain de Marsily and published by EDP Sciences. This book was released on 2012-12-03 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce rapport apporte un éclairage sur les difficultés que nos sociétés sont susceptibles de rencontrer dans le domaine de l'eau, à court, moyen et long terme, en France et dans le reste du monde. Les difficultés envisagées concernent les insécurités ou crises liées au manque d'eau, aux excès d'eau et à la détérioration de la qualité de l'eau et des écosystèmes aquatiques. L'analyse de ces difficultés potentielles, dont tout le monde pressent que les conséquences pourraient être dramatiques, l'analyse de leur probabilité d'occurrence et de leur échelonnement dans le temps ont pour objet de tenter, par l'action, de les prévenir, ou, si elles survenaient, d'en amoindrir les effets. Deux causes principales de ces difficultés sont mises en avant : - l'effet des changements démographiques, qui vont vraisemblablement faire croître la population de 6 à 9 milliards d'êtres humains d'ici 2050 et faire passer le taux d'urbanisation de 50 % à 80 %. La question de l'eau - production alimentaire, adduction d'eau potable et assainissement - y est centrale ; - l'effet des changements climatiques liés aux émissions de gaz à effets de serre, qui auront une incidence progressive sur les situations moyennes, mais agiront aussi sur les événements extrêmes (crues, sécheresse) dont les fréquences sont susceptibles de varier notablement. Le rapport aborde les problèmes de ressources en eau, de production alimentaire, d'écosystèmes, de qualité de l'eau et de risques d'inondation. Ces questions sont examinées selon six grands thèmes : bilan besoins-ressources à l'échelle mondiale et alimentation ; gestion des eaux à l'échelle régionale des bassins versants ; l'eau à l'échelle locale des grandes mégalopoles ; écosystèmes aquatiques ; eau et santé ; eau et climat. Le rapport formule enfin des recommandations, tant sur les actions publiques préventives à mener, à caractère réglementaire ou économique, que sur les actions de recherche ou acquisitions de connaissances nouvelles à programmer.

Book excerpt: Fuites de BPC et de carburant dans le fleuve Saint-Laurent, selon le chien de garde de la pollution : La Commission de la coopération environnementale (CCE), chien de garde de l'environnement en Amérique du Nord, affirme que jusqu'à huit millions de litres de carburant diesel et jusqu'à deux tonnes de BPC, un produit dangereux, ont contaminé le Technoparc de Montréal et fuient dans le fleuve Saint [...] Parmi les conséquences de la baisse du niveau des eaux souterraines, mentionnons les coûts accrus de pompage, la détérioration de la qualité de l'eau, la diminution de l'apport vers les cours d'eau et les lacs, ainsi que l'affaissement du sol. [...] Figure 2.2 - Zones de baisse du niveau de l'eau aux États-Unis (Adaptée et reproduit avec l'autorisation de Reilly et al., 2008) Même si la base de données de l'USGS contient de l'information sur les eaux souterraines de tous les États, elle ne constitue pas une base de données exhaustive de toutes les activités de surveillance des eaux souterraines aux États-Unis.
