Protecting New Jersey's Environment

From Cancer Alley to the New Garden State

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In Protecting New Jersey's Environment, critical environmental concerns translate into real human interest stories about people and their surroundings in the state-a critical site for the growth of environmentalism. The book explores the science underpinning environmental issues and the public policy infighting that goes undocumented behind the scenes and beneath the controversies. It demonstrates the ways that scientists, regulators, lobbyists, and politicians interact and offers the public a go-to guide on how to seek environmental protection in practical ways.
