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. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Environmental protection|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85044203|zPennsylvania|zPittsburgh.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79054720-781 650 0 City planning|xEnvironmental aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008117683|zPennsylvania |zPittsburgh.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79054720-781 650 0 Sustainable development|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh92005743|zPennsylvania|zPittsburgh.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79054720-781 650 0 Urban ecology (Sociology)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh88004757|zPennsylvania|zPittsburgh.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79054720-781 650 7 Environmental protection.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/913324 650 7 City planning|xEnvironmental aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/862209 650 7 Sustainable development.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1139731 650 7 Urban ecology (Sociology)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1733718 651 0 Pittsburgh (Pa.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79054720|xEnvironmental conditions.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005384 651 7 Pennsylvania|zPittsburgh.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1205171 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z0822965011|z9780822965015 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1616291|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
