Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
Almost as soon as they can walk, small girls go with their mothers and older sisters to the well or river. The tin they carry grows bigger as they get older, starting out no larger than a fruit juice can and ending with the four-gallon earthenware jars or brass pots of their mothers. Carrying water is so integral to their lives that it is scarcely something to grumble about. Yet in some parts of Africa, women spend eight hours a day collecting water. The journey is exhausting, eating into the time and energy they have for other things. And continual water bearing can distort the pelvis of young girls, making recurrent cycles of pregnancy and childbirth more dangerous.

Women and the Environment (Women & World Development)
Seller: CHARLES BOSSOM, Ely, CAMBS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Soft Cover. Condition: Very Good. Paperback: 240 pages clean and tight. Dimensions: 23.5 x 17.4 x 1.3 cm. The increasing deterioration of the earth's environment is having an impact on all of its inhabitants. For women worldwide, however, it has a particular significance. This book explains all the major environmental issues. It focuses on women's roles as users, producers and managers of the earth's resources, and shows how environmental degradation affects women's health and basic needs. But it also reveals how women can be a major force for environmental change, particularly through their important roles as educators and communicators. The book includes a glossary of environmental terms; a guide to education and action; a bibliography and resource guide; and a list of relevant organizations. It will be of interest not only to women's study groups, but to anyone who wants to understand and work towards stemming the tide of degradation that is overtaking the earth. ANNABEL RODDA, taught geography for many years. Currently she is working with the UN Non-Governmental Liaison Service. Size: 8vo. Seller Inventory # 141856
