hardcover. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. …

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Scientific Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Politics - Environmental Policy, grade: 25 von 40 Punkten, The University of Sydney (Center for International Security Studies), course: CISS6008: Population and Security, language: English, abstract: Water is the base of all human existence. First of all for drinking, food production and hygiene, but also for all other developments of contemporaries' human society. The United Nations has estimated world population would grow from 6 to 9,3 billion between 50 years and beside this 'people are getting wealthier' . Thus can be no doubt of a rising global demand for freshwater, but climate change and other environmental factors will lead to short run of water in certain regions. In consequence water can be predicted to become a security issue and a reason for conflict, as it even may be today in some regions. Only 2,5% of all water on the earth is freshwater. 70% of this freshwater is frozen at North and South Pole, 29% are bonded not accessible for mankind as 'soil moisture' and in 'underground aquifers' . About 1% (0,007% of all water) is useable for mankind, but 'water is renewable resource' . This numbers underline the importance of the question, if it is possible supplying all humans with enough water or if water may lead to conflict. Chapter 2 will discuss the questions of waters potential as a reason for dispute, conflict or peaceful development. Dispute is to understand as a political issue while conflict could further mean use of other elements than political including force. Connected to this Chapter 3 will analyse how water disputes and fertility, mortality and migration relate to each other. This is important because developments of the last three factors are highly dependent on fresh water accessibility. As examples for today's water disputes two case studies on Israel/Jordan/Syria/Lebanon and Turkey/Syria/Iraq will be made. Even if such an answer is difficult to make, chapter 5 will try to answer the main question if water will become a major security problem in the 21st century and if water disputes will lead to conflicts. In context of population growth and climate change this will be an important topic for 21st centuries politics.The terms `conflict or `major conflict do necessarily contain war or violence. Water disputes could possibly lead to violent conflict, but when the term `conflict is used here it means conflict in general and not specifically war or violence.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The human population of the world is increasing by about 1.5% per annum, adding about one hundred million people to the human ark each year. Not all agree that population growth on this scale constitutes a problem, but there is wide acceptance that the world's human population cannot go on growing indefinitely. Where do the limits lie, and how can they be determined What are the problems caused by population growth and how can we safeguard the future of our planet In this important book, leading authorities examine the implications of rapid human population growth for global stability and security. Avoiding the hysteria and over-statement that so often characterize discussions of human population issues, the book represents an important assessment of current prospects for the process of sustainable development, based on care for the environment.…
