- W1506535539 abstract "Ways in which citizens have organized and acted in response to perceived threats to their environments are described. The cases were selected to illustrate the wide variety of issues in which citizens have felt impelled to organize to defend interests threatened by agencies of government or corporate enterprise. In many cases, the power of government and business combined to promote economic development in ways that disregarded environmental and social values. Agencies of government were frequently found to work at cross purposes on environmental issues and were too often discovered to be indifferent or reluctant defenders of the public interest as the protesting citizens understood it. This volume is a response to a need for real-life resource materials for learning or teaching about public response to environmental issues. The cases record successes, failures, and inconclusive outcomes of citizen efforts for environmental protection. Sixty-eight cases were examined to provide a broad coverage of issues and geographic representation. Man-made urban environment as well as the rural environment was dealt with. Although no chapter was wholly the work of any one individual, each author was chiefly responsible for particular chapters. Isabel MacWhirter wrote chapters 2, Coastal Zone; 3, Inland Waters; 4, Air Quality andmore » Weather Modifications; 8, Environmental Health; and 9, Quality of Urban Life. Lynton Hayes wrote chapters 1, Land Use; 5, Natural Areas and Wildlife; 6, Energy; 7, The Economy and Growth; and 10, Institutional Behavior. Lynton Caldwell wrote the introductory chapter and edited the substance of the entire volume. (MCW)« less" @default.
