Paperback. Condición: New. North Americans have reached a socioenvironmental tipping point where social transformation has become necessary to secure a stable and desirable future. As hurricanes destroy coastal areas that once hosted schools and homes, petroleum refineries choke nearby communities and their parks, and pipeline construction threatens water rights for indigenous peoples, communities are left to determine how to best manage and mitigate environmental loss.In this new collection, a range of contributors -- among them researchers, practitioners, organizers, and activists -- explore the ways in which people counter or cope with feelings of despair, leverage action for positive change, and formulate pathways to achieve environmental justice goals.

Adams, Randall Amster, Jan Inglis, Eileen Delehanty Pearkes, Zo?½ Roller, and Michael Truscello.…
