内容説明

Taking the slogan "think globally, act locally" to heart, thecontributors to Fatal Consumption are theoretical as well aspractical. They conceptualize the policy analysis they provide, whilealso proposing useful tools for those charged with making decisions.Though specific in focus, the analysis in Fatal Consumptioncan be generalized to most North American urban areas. It offers bothan understanding of the present and hope for a sustainable future,counterbalancing a discussion of the opportunities for change with afrank examination of the barriers to such change.
