Green Development : Environment and Sustainability in a Developing World
The concept of sustainability lies at the core of the challenge of environment and development, and the way governments, business and environmental groups respond to it.Green Development provides a clear and coherent analysis of sustainable development in both theory and practice.Green Development explores the origins and evolution of mainstream thinking about sustainable development and offers a critique of the ideas behind them.It draws a link between theory and practice by discussing the nature of the environmental degradation and the impacts of development.It argues that, ultimately, ‘green’ development has to be about political economy, about the distribution of power, and not about environmental quality.Its focus is strongly on the developing world. The fourth edition retains the broad structure of previous editions, but has been updated to reflect advances in ideas and changes in international policy.Greater attention has been given to the political ecology of development, market-based and neoliberal environmentalism, and degrowth.This fully revised edition discusses: the origins of thinking about sustainability and sustainable development, and its evolution to the present day; the ideas that dominate mainstream sustainable development (including natural capital, the green economy, market environmentalism and ecological modernisation); critiques of mainstream ideas and of neoliberal framings of sustainability, and alternative ideas about sustainability that challenge ‘business as usual’ thinking, such as arguments about limits to growth and calls for degrowth; the dilemmas of sustainability in the context of forests, desertification, food and farming, biodiversity conservation and dam construction; the challenge of policy choices about sustainability, particularly between reformist and radical responses to the contemporary global dilemmas. Green Development offers clear insights into the challenges of environmental sustainability, and social and economic development.It is unique in offering a synthesis of theoretical ideas on sustainability and in its coverage of the extensive literature on environment and development around the world.The book has proved its value to generations of students as an authoritative, thought-provoking and readable guide to the field of sustainable development.

Regreening the Built Environment : Nature, Green Space, and Sustainability
Now in its second volume, Regreening the Built Environment provides an overview of physical and social environmental challenges that the planet is facing and presents solutions that restore ecological processes, reclaim open space, foster social equity, and facilitate a green economy. Healing the planet requires a combination of strategies networked across multiple scales of development, including buildings, sites, communities, and regions.Case studies from a range of locations in the United States, Denmark, Vietnam, Germany, South Korea, Switzerland, France, and the United Kingdom, among others, demonstrate how existing gray infrastructure can be retrofitted with green infrastructure and low-impact development techniques.From this, the author shows how a building can be designed that creates greenspace or generates energy; likewise, a roadway can be a parkway, an alley can be a wildlife corridor, and a parking surface can be a garden.This new edition also includes case studies that have successfully reconnected communities that were fragmented by unjust planning practices and irresponsible patterns of development, resilient design solutions in response to natural disasters, passive design strategies that can make interior spaces more efficient and healthier, and expanded discussions on capturing carbon, renewable energy, agriculture, waste, public transit, and adaptive reuse, including innovative ideas on how to reimagine the shopping mall in the era of e-commerce. The strategies presented in this book will stimulate discussions within the design profession and will be of great interest to students and practitioners of environmental studies, architecture, landscape architecture, and urban design.

Does waste reduction go beyond waste recycling?
Yes, waste reduction goes beyond waste recycling. While recycling is an important part of waste management, waste reduction focuses on minimizing the amount of waste produced in the first place. This can be achieved through practices such as reducing packaging, reusing items, and implementing more sustainable production processes. By focusing on waste reduction, we can decrease the overall environmental impact of waste and move towards a more circular and sustainable economy.

What do you think, 2nd floor - 1st floor or 2nd floor?
I believe the 2nd floor is a better option compared to the 1st floor. The 2nd floor usually offers better views, more privacy, and less noise from foot traffic. Additionally, being on the 2nd floor can provide an added sense of security as it is harder for intruders to access compared to the 1st floor.

What is waste separation and recycling?
Waste separation is the process of sorting different types of waste materials into separate categories such as paper, plastic, glass, and organic waste. Recycling involves taking these separated materials and processing them to create new products, reducing the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. By separating waste and recycling, we can help conserve natural resources, reduce pollution, and minimize the impact of waste on the environment.
-
Is the ground floor on the 3rd floor?
No, the ground floor is not on the 3rd floor. The ground floor is typically the first floor of a building, while the 3rd floor is two levels above the ground floor. Therefore, the ground floor and the 3rd floor are not the same.

How do green spots form under the drain pipe and green drops on the floor?
Green spots can form under a drain pipe due to a buildup of algae or mold caused by moisture and lack of sunlight. The stagnant water from the drain pipe provides a perfect environment for these organisms to grow. When water drips or leaks from the pipe onto the floor, it can carry some of the algae or mold, resulting in green drops forming on the floor. Regular cleaning and maintenance of the drain pipe can help prevent the formation of green spots and drops.
