Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a collection of essays that examine environmental science and policy in the United States with specific attention given to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the years since its 1970 founding. The author points to major environmental issues of our time - the growing human population, increased energy demands, and global warming - and places them within a larger political context, focusing particularly on the major environmental legislation of the past half-century. The essays argue for placing science at the center of environmental policy while arguing that the general public needs to be brought into the process through education and policy. The author also addresses environmental issues through the lens of race, gender and class. Importantly, this book provides insight into the history of environmental policy and science in the United States and offers a compelling look toward the relationship between humans and the natural world.
