Summary
Achieving human development while overcoming, rather than exacerbating environmental challenges – such as the degradation of land, watersheds and marine fisheries, deforestation, pollution, and climate change – is an immense but central challenge to humanity. Environment and Human Well-Being presents principles upon which each country can determine for itself the most appropriate steps to take towards achieving environmental sustainability. The authors integrate cross-cutting strategies, present case studies and propose specific interventions and policy changes required to improve environmental management at the country, regional and international levels.
