Emerald City is a polarizing and courageous piece from Matthew Klingle. Matthew Klingle had explored the functions of nature in the development of Seattle as from the early days when settlement began to the present time. The book has made a combination of environmental history, human geography, urban history, among others, as he tries to attempt to reshape how nature looks like within the period of ecological disaster and social inequality. Matthew Klingle has explored many things that are…

ecocentric Deep Ecology ecological movement is to end the dominantion and power relationships modern humans have over nonhuman Nature, and to set up realistic biological conditions under which the wild species and biodiversity of the earth can exist and flourish. The deep ecological approach to contesting Earth’s future is to distinguish between the vital and the nonvital needs of humans. The vital needs of nonhumans get priority before the non vital needs of humans. Deep Ecology, Radical…

categories; the world is biophysically finite, over-population can be considered as an example of the tragedy of the commons, and the system commons for breeding must be abandoned. The tragedy of the commons continues to be so popular because it has “…. become part of the conventional wisdom in environmental studies, resource science and policy, economics ecology, and political science and is featured in textbooks….

Dietz, Thomas, and Richard York. "Animals, Capital and Sustainability." Human Ecology Review, vol. 22, no. 1, 2016, pp. 35. The aim of this article is to recognize that humans use animals as goods to increase their well-being, which has a negative impact on the environment. The impact on the environment can leave the land unsustainable, which impacts humanity’s well-being as well as the animals.

many of them are sold as ornamentals. But certain fern species can create substantial problems and they are herein called “problem ferns”. Pteridium aquilinum (bracken fern) is one of the problem ferns which cause the greatest range of problems on ecology and human welfare. Bracken fern has been described as one of the five most common plants on earth, the most locally intensive and globally extensive. It is a ubiquitous fern belonging to the phylum Pteridophyta and to the family…

companies have turned their attention in realizing how going ‘green’ can benefit public relations, reducing cost and lowering the global emissions for industrial manufacturing. Thus Green Computing has become an innovative way on how technology and ecology converge together. Nowadays, people prefer Network-based computing to an in-house based computing. The concept of cloud computing has dramatically changed the classical method of computation. Cloud computing and Green computing are two most…

In order to maintain the sustainable development, the government should build the construction of the legal system of sustainable development, build the construction of the education system for sustainable development, and build the construction of public participation in sustainable development. Also, the government should achieve a sustainable development of science and technology system and a management…

The terms ‘conservation’ and ‘environmentalism’ often bear negative stigmas: images of activists chained to trees and of people engaging in physical conflicts over the practice of whale harvesting sometimes come to mind when we hear words associated with environmental protection. As Christians, we recognize that human life is far more important in the eyes of the Creator than is the life of any other creature, no matter how rare. Yet does this truth immediately release us from responsibility to…

environment, especially with his concepts of “thinking like a mountain” and “land ethics”. Thinking like a mountain refers to his notion that humans should understand ecological systems in a holistic sense, by recognising that each entity in the ecological system has a function that affects the survival of the other entities in that system (ibid: 132). He explains though his discussion of how killing wolves, allows deer to destroy the natural habitat as their populations go unchecked by…

of the people who were affected by creating these parks, his argument would have not been supported and would have made the reader not support his main goal. Jacoby wants us to think more deeply about the inherent tension between state legislated systems of environmental control and social justice. Crimes Against Nature gives the reader to many compelling stories about poachers and wardens, backwoods juries and frustrated prosecutors, Indians, and park rangers. According to Henry Wiencek, in the…
