Beskrivning
Conservation Science and Advocacy for a Planet in Peril: Speaking Truth to Power helps equip scientists working on environmental and sustainability challenges with new tactics for success. Global efforts and cooperation by member states of environmental conventions have steadily increased but lack efficient and scalable mechanisms of translating conservation science to policy. The gap between science and policy is growing and very little time remains before the climate change and biodiversity lossess trigger widespread disruptions of the planet's life support systems. This book covers these important topics, providing a must read for environmental and conservation scientists, climate change activists,�students, social scientists, economic professionals, sustainable businesses and policymakers.

  • Provides an unprecedented collection of local, regional, and national case studies from scientists and practitioners engaged in outreach to decision makers and the public
  • Covers personal accounts that bring science into policymaking, providing usable guidelines for those working to bridge this gap
  • Includes the requisite information needed for effective communications and campaign strategies by sharing lessons learned
