DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe trajectories of pollution in global capitalism, from the toxic waste of early tanneries to the poisonous effects of pesticides in the twentieth century. Through the centuries, the march of economic progress has been accompanied by the spread of industrial pollution. As our capacities for production and our aptitude for consumption have increased, so have their byproducts--chemical contamination from fertilizers and pesticides, diesel emissions, oil spills, a vast "plastic continent" found floating in the ocean. The Contamination of the Earth offers a social and political history of industrial pollution, mapping its trajectories over three centuries, from the toxic wastes of early tanneries to the fossil fuel energy regime of the twentieth century.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAir Pollution is widespread and a growing challenge to the international community, with clear known impacts on local and global health and the environment. Governments face a need to balance concern over these impacts with maintaining or improving economic development. Science is the key to identifying the nature and scale of air pollution impacts and is essential in the formulation of effective policies and regulations. Our knowledge of the fundamental science of air pollution and its application continurd to improve, enabling us to better predict, assess and mitigate the air pollution implications to local, regional, national and international economic systems. This book contains papers presented at the nineteenth in the successful series of annual International Conferences dealing with Modelling, Monitoring and Management of Air Pollution. The papers deal with advances in a wide variety of topics, including: Air Pollution Modelling; Air Quality Management; Emission Studies; Monitoring and Measuring; Aerosols and Particles; Atmospheric Chemistry; Indoor Air Pollution; Policy Studies; Climate Change and Air Pollution; Regional and Global Studies; Exposure and Health Effects; Rural Pollution Studies; Air Pollution Effects on Ecosystems; Air Pollution Mitigation; Case Studies.
