<P>In the modern age, people are increasingly aware of environmental concerns, and care deeply about the health of the planet. With the effects of climate change all around, many are enacting conservation and sustainability measures for the betterment of the planet. Scientists have raised concerns about Earth’s climate since the late 1800s, and in the early 1900s, actions were taken to preserve natural areas and national parks, national forests, and protected refuges. The movement gained traction in the 1960s with the publication of Rachel Carson’s <EM>Silent Spring</EM>, which raised awareness about the impacts of pesticides and pollution. Public concern continues to grow as the human impact on climate change becomes more apparent. In 2016, 195 nations signed the Paris Agreement, but unfortunately, global emissions continued to climb. With record temperatures recorded in 2024, the modern world seems to be on the precipice of ecological catastrophe, and information about environmental sustainability is needed now more than ever. Sustainability encompasses renewable energy sources, water conservation, recycling, reducing waste, saving energy, cutting emissions, and supporting sustainable food sources. But how do these measures protect the environment, and what else can be done on local, national, and international levels? This book answers these questions and presents a full picture of sustainability for anyone interested in learning more. This carefully researched volume addresses a wide range of topics surrounding environmental studies in easy-to-understand language, providing readers with in-depth, accessible information about how climate change affects our daily lives and what actions can be taken to protect the planet. Topics include green building, bioprospecting, environmental racism, conspiracy theories, fracking, solar energy, deforestation, seed banks, and more, providing a comprehensive guide to environmental issues, sustainability, and energy.</P>
