Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. As projects like Manhattans High Line, Chicagos 606, Chinas eco-cities, and Ethiopias tree-planting efforts show, cities around the world are devoting serious resources to urban greening. Formerly neglected urban spaces and new high-end developments draw huge crowds thanks to the considerable efforts of city governments. But why are greening projects so widely taken up, and what good do they do? In How Green Became Good, Hillary Angelo uncovers the origins and meanings of the enduring appeal of urban green space, showing that city planners have long thought that creating green spaces would lead to social improvement. Turning to Germanys Ruhr Valley (a region that, despite its ample open space, was greened with the addition of official parks and gardens), Angelo shows that greening is as much a social process as a physical one. She examines three moments in the Ruhr Valley's urban history that inspired the creation of new green spaces: industrialization in the late nineteenth century, postwar democratic ideals of the 1960s, and industrial decline and economic renewal in the early 1990s. Across these distinct historical moments, Angelo shows that the impulse to bring nature into urban life has persistently arisen as a response to a host of social changes, and reveals an enduring conviction that green space will transform us into ideal inhabitants of ideal cities. Ultimately, however, she finds that the creation of urban green space is more about how we imagine social life than about the good it imparts.

Paperback. Condition: New. Catastrophic climate change overshadows the present and the future. Wrenching economic transformations have devastated workers and hollowed out communities. However, those fighting for jobs and those fighting for the planet have often been at odds. Does the world face two separate crises, environmental and economic? The promise of the Green New Deal is to tackle the threat of climate change through the empowerment of working people and the strengthening of democracy. In this view, the crisis of nature and the crisis of work must be addressed together-or they will not be addressed at all.This book brings together leading experts to explore the possibilities of the Green New Deal, emphasizing the future of work. Together, they examine transformations that are already underway and put forth bold new proposals that can provide jobs while reducing carbon consumption-building a world that is sustainable both economically and ecologically. Contributors also debate urgent questions: What is the value of a federal jobs program, or even a jobs guarantee? How do we alleviate the miseries and precarity of work? In key economic sectors, including energy, transportation, housing, agriculture, and care work, what kind of work is needed today? How does the New Deal provide guidance in addressing these questions, and how can a Green New Deal revive democracy? Above all, this book shows, the Green New Deal offers hope for a better tomorrow-but only if it accounts for work's past transformations and shapes its future.

Brossura. Condition: new. Cesena, 2023; br. La transizione energetica è centrale per il futuro del pianeta. Una nuova alleanza fra economia ed ecologia è possibile, per tenere insieme sviluppo e sostenibilità ambientale, sociale ed economica. Gli autori di questo libro cercano di fare luce sulle trasformazioni sociali in atto, ammonendo circa i rischi di un ambientalismo ideologico, radicale e anti industriale, che si fa strada in Occidente. Un ambientalismo delle "Ztl", da "decrescita felice", che, lungi dal proteggere l'ambiente, rischia solo di indebolire l'Occidente e renderlo subalterno a quei Paesi che inquinano e utilizzano le terre rare, necessarie alla transizione energetica, come armi di una guerra non convenzionale. Per vincere le sfide della geopolitica, invece, serve un ambientalismo pragmatico e possibile, a sostegno dell'economia, e che non si proponga come freno allo sviluppo. Libro.
