520    Ittsburgh has a rich history of social consciousness in 
       calls for justice and equity. Today, the movement for more
       sustainable practices is rising in Pittsburgh. Against a 
       backdrop of Marcellus shale gas development, initiatives 
       emerge for a sustainable and resilient response to the 
       climate change and pollution challenges of the twenty-
       first century. People, institutions, communities and 
       corporations in Pittsburgh are leading the way to a more 
       sustainable future. Examining the experience of a single 
       city, with all of its social and political complexities 
       and long industrial history, allows a deeper understanding
       of the challenges and opportunities inherent in adapting 
       to a changing world. Choices for more sustainable pathways
       for the future include transforming the energy system, 
       restoring infertile ground, and preventing pollution 
       through green chemistry production. Throughout the book, 
       case studies responding to ethical challenges give 
       specific examples of successful ways forward. Inspired by 
       Rachel Carson's voice of precaution in protecting the 
       Earth, this is a book about empowerment and hope.
