How can greenhouse gases be controlled and reduced? Will it be in time?This book adds a significant new contribution to the crucial climate change/global warming debate. Incorporating the key political and legal considerations into `real world' applied economic analysis, the authors provide a unique focus on the wider political economy of the problem.All the key issues of controlling climate change (costs, timing and degree of stabilisation, ecological taxt reform, developing countries, and evolution of international agreements), are placed firmly within the current legal and political context, with state-of-the-art economic techniques introduced to analyse different policy proposals.Covering both the developing and developed world, this book identifies important new policies to foster effective agreements on eissions and prevent global warming - realistic policies, likely to receive support at both international and domestic levels. be in time?This book adds a significant new contribution to the crucial climate change/global warming debate.

"The South Pennines Mountain Bike Guidebook" introduces you to the wilderness and urban trail networks of Kirklees & Calderdale, Airedale & Wharfedale and Lancashire. New riding centres include: Stainburn, Healey Nab, Gisburn Forest and Lee Quarry that mix freely with classic Pennine riding on London Road, around Rivington Pike and on likely Moor. This guide contains 26 meticulously researched and legal routes, most with short, medium and long modular options detailing routes that can be full day epics, half day rides or a short blast. The modular design means you can choose from over 70 separate possible rides to suit the weather conditions on the day, or simply how much of a ride you fancy. Each route is accompanied by excellent, evocative photography clearly detailing what you can expect to see on route. Ordnance Survey mapping, gradient profiles, clear route descriptions and informative text make planning your ride a pleasure in your living room and routes easy to follow from your pocket, on the trail.

The impact of North Sea oil and gas on the British economy is examined thoroughly in this book. It explores why the early years of the 1980s, when oil production had risen to the level of self-sufficiency and beyond were years of recession and unemployment. The book compares the record of British government policy with that of Norway, the Netherlands, Venezuela, Australia and Japan. Issues such as long – term energy policy are also examined.

Housing. Water. Energy. Transport. Food. Education. Health care. These are the core systems which make human life possible in the 21st century. Few of us are truly self-sufficient – we rely on the systems built into our cities and towns of all shapes and sizes in order to survive, let alone thrive.Despite how important these systems are, and how much we rely on them, contemporary politics and mainstream economics in most of the world largely ignore these core systems. Politicians debate what they think will get them elected; economists value what they think drives growth.This book joins the growing chorus of activists, academics and innovators who think that we should be focusing on what matters, on the parts of our economy in which most of us work and upon which all of us depend for survival. We help push this movement along by suggesting a series of concrete steps we can take to build what we call the “Spatial Contract”. The spatial contract is a form of social contract that pays attention to a simple fact: in order for humans to be free, we rely on these basic systems that enable us to act. At the heart of the spatial contract is an agreement to channel that action into ensuring these systems are built, maintained and available to all who need them, in big cities and small towns all around the world.This book is relevant to both United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 7 and 9, Affordable and clean energy and Industry, innovation and infrastructureThis book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 9, Industry, innovation and infrastructure

We all know how hard it is when your child is asking for that one item for their birthday, and you simply cannot afford it, or perhaps you are just tired of never having any money left at the end of the month to treat yourself to that jacket you have had your eye on. After working in the finance sector for many years and realizing that in general, we as a population waste far more than we need to, I started to think about how I could get this message out there I have worked with so many people and families that had got themselves into financial difficulties, going into debt and such when it could have been avoided.

This authoritative, stimulating and beautifully illustrated book will appeal to zoologists, veterinarians, conservationists, landscape historians and the general reader in natural history. – Nicholas Tyler, UiT The Arctic University of NorwayThe Wild Cattle of Chillingham are one of the most significant icons of British natural history and this book is a much needed definitive resource. Stephen Hall adopts a novel approach by placing original research in an up-to-date multidisciplinary context. The Chillingham herd are the only accessible cattle worldwide that live under conditions of minimal human interference, and as such they are uniquely placed to provide insights into many aspects of the life of cattle as a species rather than as a component of livestock systems.Attitudes towards cattle generally are in a state of flux because of their roles in both contributing to and potentially mitigating global climate warming. A better understanding of the Chillingham herd in their ancient landscape will contribute to equitable and sustainable policies in relation to global cattle husbandry.The biology of the herd and of its habitat is considered from the viewpoints of plant and animal ecology, animal behaviour, genetics and reproductive physiology, and the insights for archaeology, human geography, and cultural studies are demonstrated.As climate pressures force a rethink of how we manage livestock and landscapes, understanding the Chillingham cattle is more than academic – it’s essential for shaping resilient, nature-rich rural futures rooted in our native heritage. – Christopher Price, Chief Executive Officer, Rare Breeds Survival Trust

All over Europe post-Second World War large-scale housing estates face physical, economic, social and cultural problems. This book presents the key findings of a major EU-funded research programme into the restructuring of twenty-nine large-scale housing estates in Northern, Western, Southern and Eastern Europe. Policy and practice between and within the ten countries studied - UK, the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Slovenia, Italy, Spain, and France - is compared. While existing literature focuses on the negative aspects of large-scale housing estates, this book starts from the premise that the estates can be transformed into attractive places to live and focuses on the possibilities of sustainability and renewal through social, physical and policy actions.Specifically, the book explains the origins and nature of contemporary problems on the estates; examines which policy objectives, measures and processes have had the greatest impact; assesses and compares a wide range of local, regional and national initiatives; discusses current ideas and philosophies, such as 'place making' and 'collaborative planning' that are likely to influence future policy and practice and provides good practice guidance for neighbourhood sustainability and renewal.Written by a multi-national team of experts and drawing on original fieldwork, the book provides unique comparative insights into the present and future position of large-scale housing estates in Europe. Restructuring large-scale housing estates in Europe is an invaluable resource for a wide audience of academics, researchers, students and policy makers in the fields of housing, urban studies, community studies, regeneration, planning and social policy.
