Environmental Responses by Andrew Blowers
Environmental understandings and actions are complex. Environmental responses include both our responses to environmental change and responses of environments induced by human actions, and cover technical measures and tools of evaluation, environmental policy and regulation, and environmental politics.“…an informative, richly illustrated and accessible reader, which develops a number of environmental themes…” (Geography, 2004)
