the environment is a precondition for awareness, and it seems that in Slovenia in the last decade people’s informedness about environment and sustainable living has increased. People are expressing greater inclination toward environmental protection. - (IKR)
. By plotting a range of concepts of waste and dualist concepts of waste and society, she contextualizes scholarship on waste within the broader discussion about the ‘rematerialization’ of geography and social science.
effets, parfois favorables mais le plus souvent dramatiques, des variations climatiques sur les sociétés humaines. Alors qu'aujourd'hui l'action anthropique modifie radicalement l'environnement, la connaissance des climats du passé éclaire l'analyse des

The A. examines here the use of narratives about these causal relationships and explore why narratives with little basis in observation can persist in guiding policy. He examines 3 case studies, one concerning a narrative of climate impacts
(catastrophic flooding in Mozambique, in 2000), a second concerning the relationship between household wealth and vulnerability, and the third concerning the procedures and needs of policy-makers themselves. In each case, the A. finds that the narrative

. The concept of ecosystem services is generally defined as a set of products and functions of ecosystems that benefit society. This paper contains definitions of the most common concepts found in the literature, i.e. ecosystem services, the drivers behind
In this paper, the A. presents two empirical cases from Icelandic history and current Greenlandic society. These cases shed light on the natural–social entanglements in a long-term historical perspective and in a highly charged present, respectively

This paper uses a case study on the evolution of the Rhine river delta to illustrate the coevolution of the environment, the technology used to exploit it, and the institutions governing it. Three strands are interwoven : (1) Achieving equilibrium
between collective and individual action that accompanies these changes, individuals beget institutions and institutions beget individuals; (3) New technologies are invented, helping overcome challenges posed by the natural environment. Their unexpected
