This updated seventh edition presents an extensive revision and update with: sharp evaluation of the Bush administration s most significant environmental decisions, with particular attention to the conflict between conservative and environmentalist approaches to ecological issues; increased emphasis on the interaction of global and domestic environmental issues, such as climate change and growing importance of other transboundary issues in the domestic economy balanced discussion of petroleum consumption and its environmental impact; greater attention to the politics of energy conservation, including regulatory and technological approaches; and increased coverage of environmental justice issues.
