Abstract

Bien que l'historiographie de la science écologique et de l'écologie politique se soit enrichie ces années dernières de nombreuses études qui en ont mis en lumière les sources multiples, il s'en faut de beaucoup que tout ait été dit, notamment en ce qui concerne la genèse de l'écologie politique. Cet article tend à établir que le politologue, économiste et prospectiviste français Bertrand de Jouvenel fut, dès 1957, l'un des premiers sinon le premier à avoir lancé l'expression d'"écologie politique" dans le sens qui lui est actuellement conféré et à avoir proposé que l'économie politique s'intègre dans cette discipline plus vaste et plus fondamentale.

Abstract

Blessed unrest tells the story of a worldwide movement that is largely unseen by politicians or the media. Hawken, an environmentalist and author, has spent more than a decade researching organizations dedicated to restoring the environment and fostering social justice. From billion-dollar nonprofits to single-person causes, these organizations collectively comprise the largest movement on earth. This is a movement that has no name, leader, or location but is in every city, town, and culture. It is organizing from the bottom up and is emerging as an extraordinary and creative expression of people's needs worldwide. Blessed Unrest explores the diversity of this movement, its brilliant ideas, innovative strategies, and centuries-old history. The culmination of Hawken's many years of leadership in these fields, it will inspire, surprise, and delight anyone who is worried about the direction the modern world is headed. Blessed Unrest is a description of humanity's collective genius and the unstoppable movement to re-imagine our relationship to the environment and one another. Like Hawken's previous books, Blessed Unrest will become a classic in its field--a touchstone for anyone concerned about our future.

Abstract

"In this report, the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC) recommends that North American leaders make green building a foundational driver for environmental, social, and economic improvement in Canada, Mexico, and the United States. Green building refers to the use of environmentally preferable practices and materials in the design, location, construction, operation and disposal of buildings. It applies to both renovation and retrofitting of existing buildings and construction of new buildings, whether residential or commercial public or private. By continually improving how we locate, design, build, operate, and retrofit buildings, North American leaders can significantly improve the well-being of North America. Advanced energy-saving technologies applied in buildings can result in enormous reductions in demand for fossil fuels and emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG). Better design and building practices can also help address environmental challenges such as natural resource depletion, waste disposal, and air, water, and soil pollution. Green building can also help achieve gains in human health and prosperity."
