Podmaněná planeta
Author: Bedřich Moldan
12,40 €
Human intervention in natural processes has reached a scale that calls for a broader way of thinking. Podmaněná planeta uses the concept of the Anthropocene to explore the relationship between society and the Earth system.
In this second, expanded and updated edition, Bedřich Moldan brings together historical perspectives, major drivers of development, the state of the planet, and societal responses. Four sections provide a framework for comparing environmental conditions with the ways people and institutions respond.
This Czech-language PDF eBook suits readers of environmental studies and those interested in the long-term context of human activity. Its contribution lies in connecting natural processes with social action. As this is a specific older edition, its data and projections should be read in their historical context.
Moldan's book examines human influence on the planet through the concept of the Anthropocene. It connects the state of the Earth system with historical contexts and societal responses. This edition expands and reorganizes the original treatment.
