The crucial interdependence between humans and their environment is explored and illuminated in this revealing overview of the major environmental issues facing society in the twentyfirst century. With attention to detail and cogent language, the author describes how human health and wellbeing are inextricably bound up in the web of interrelationships that characterize life on this planet. The presentation combines an overall ecological concern with specific elements related to personal and community health, giving readers a clear sense of how today's environmental issues directly impact their own lives.New to the seventh edition is a chapter on clean energy alternatives that evaluates the longterm potential of the most promising renewable energy technologies as well as shortterm strategies to increase energy efficiency.
