This book challenges dominant, top-down approaches to climate mitigation in the land sector, arguing that without genuine negotiation, recognized land rights, and tailored capacity building for Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs), most solutions will inevitably fail or do harm.
Examining the relationship between anthropogenic climate change and atrocity crimes, this book analyses how gender, race, and species hierarchies shape experiences of and responses to the climate emergency.
Now in its fourth edition, The Global Positioning System and GIS arrives at a critical moment of transition- a time when new methods for collecting position and attribute data are reshaping how information is integrated into Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
Water is the lifeline of agriculture, and its efficient management is crucial for sustainable food production in an era of climate uncertainty and resource scarcity.
Bringing together a broad range of case studies from across Europe, this book explores practices implemented to promote the sustainable use of environmental resources from the 16th century until the turn of the 21st century.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the influence that the papyrus plant has had on African wetlands (with a particular focus on the Nile) in the past, and how this may change with the oncoming threats of climate change.
This book draws on interdisciplinary research deploying 'river rights' and 'water justice' as conceptual frameworks to engage with laws and politics around waterbodies.

Zoo Animal Welfare unpacks the different concepts of welfare in the zoo and aquarium, considering how enclosure design, nutrition, conservation activities, visitor engagement and daily husbandry all need to have a welfare focus to be relevant to the species being housed.
Aromatic Basmati rice, also known as 'the scented pearl' by its connoisseurs, has been grown in a specific geo-climatic region of India and Pakistan for centuries.
This book explains the holistic knowledge of xenobiotics and their mode of action, as well as their toxic impact on living organisms at the cellular level.
