sehr guter Zustand (noch originalverschweisst, OHNE Mängelex.-Stempel!), 168 S., kart. Wer weiss schon, dass 150 Kilo Holz verbrannt werden müssen, um ein Kilo marktfähigen Tabak zu erzeugen, d.h. ein/e Durchschnittsraucher/in alle drei Monate einen Tropenbaum verqualmt? Geschätzte 500.000 Kinder verhungern weltweit im Jahr, weil die Eltern das Geld lieber für Zigaretten als für Kindernahrung ausgeben (allerdings sind die Zahlenangaben nicht immer gut belegt). Und die EU zahlt jährlich rund 1 Milliarde Euro an Subventionen für den Tabakanbau, während zugleich Geld für Nichtraucherkampagnen ausgegeben wird. Dieses Buch steckt voll von Argumenten gegen die Tabakkonzerne, von den ausbeuterischen Bedingungen des Anbaus angefangen bis zu den aggressiven Vermartungsstrategien. Der Band ist auch ein guter Beitrag zur Debatte um Rauchverbote, wobei wohltuend auffällt, dass sich die Argumentation des Bandes keineswegs nur auf die - durchaus sehr doppelbödige - Gesundheitsdebatte beschränkt. Vielmehr kommen hier eben wenig bekannte Fakten z.B. hinsichtlich ökologischer Zusammenhänge auf den (Rauch-)Tisch. Sollte jede/r Raucher/in gelesen haben jede/r zweite von ihnen stirbt übrigens an den Folgen des Rauchens - für Raucher/innen ist das Rauchen die mit Abstand häufigste Todesursache -,aber auch für NichtraucherInnen bietet der Band gutes Argumentationsmaterial. Gramm 600.

Summary:Scientists predict that the environment over the next 100 years will be threatened by severe challenges--the loss of biodiversity, expected changes in world-wide climate, and decreasing amounts of arable land and potable water for an exploding human population. All of these will greatly impact how the earth will be able to support life in the future. And at the center of these global environmental changes are developments in land use. Over the last 300 years, and in particular the last 50 years, the earth's land has been altered drastically as a result of increasing industrialization and urbanization worldwide, as well as by changes in agricultural techniques in lands under cultivation. These developments raise troubling questions about out future: How will these changes affect the sustainability of certain types of land use? How will they impinge upon critical regions, like rainforests and deserts? Will the earth be able to provide for the basic human needs of food, shelter, and water?

Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Hardcover, 2006 reprint, xiv + 258 pages, NOT ex-library. Missing the dust jacket. Neat green highlighting on first seven text pages. A small indentation to the tip of upper corner of last leaves. Else interior is clean and bright with no other markings in text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Light handling wear on boards; ISBN sticker on rear panel. -- This book provides an examination into the causes and prospects of desertification through a systematic review of 132 sub national case studies. It uses a meta-analytical model to determine whether proximate causes and underlying driving forces fall into any patterns, to identify mediating factors, feedbacks, cross-scalar dynamics and typical pathways. It shows a limited set of recurrent core variables in varying combinations to drive desertification. Most prominent root causes are climatic factors, institutions, national policies, population growth and remote economic influences that lead to local cropland expansion, overgrazing and infrastructure extension, associated with desertification as a potential but not necessary outcome. Some factors are geographically robust; most of them are region and time specific. -- Contents: 1 The Problem and Its Identification; 2 Research Design; 3 Initial Conditions; 4 Causes and System Properties; 5 Syndromes and Process Rates; 6 Pathways; 7 Indicators; 8 Discussion; 9 Conclusions; Bibliography; Index.
