概要 | Porteous (emeritus, environmental engineering, Open U., UK) presents an updated edition of a dictionary focused on the science and technology of environmental protection and resource management. With ...ome 4000 explanatory definitions from "abatement" to "zooplankton," the dictionary was produced in the hopes of promoting environmental literacy by providing basic definitions and data and summaries of key issues for an audience diverse in background and interest. Technical and scientific terms are typically defined in quite brief fashion, whereas some issues, such as "bottles" or "plastics" receive far broader attention. Legislative and governance issues are presented, but with a generally British/European perspective. This perspective is also evident in the listing of organizations presented in an appendix.
