This textbook provides readers with the fundamentals and the intent of environmental regulations so that compliance can be greatly improved and streamlined. Through numerous examples and case studies, it explains concepts from how environmental laws are applied and work to why pollution prevention and sustainability are critical for the future of all life on Earth. It is organized to accommodate different needs of students with different backgrounds and career choices. It is also useful for site safety and environmental managers, researchers, technicians, and other young professionals with a desire to apply environmental regulations and sustainability measures to their facilities and stay up to date on recently changed regulations.
FEATURES
- Introduces students to issues of global environmental and sustainability challenges and policy
- Explains the science behind issues such as climate change, how environmental policy is made at the national and international levels, and what role politics play in determining environmental resource use
- Focuses on fundamental principles that are applicable in all nations and legal contexts
- Addresses the planet as one biosphere and briefly discusses environmental laws and regulations of more than 50 countries
- Provides numerous case studies that demonstrate major concepts and themes, examples, questions, and exercises to strengthen understanding and promote critical thinking, discussion, and debate
This book will benefit students in advanced undergraduate and graduate programs in environmental sciences and environmental engineering. It will also be of use to new practitioners who are entering the field of environmental management and need an introduction to environmental regulations.
