توجه داشته باشید کتاب بازبینی نقش پلاستیک در جامعه جهانی: چشم انداز غذا، شهرنشینی و محیط زیست نسخه زبان اصلی می باشد و کتاب ترجمه شده به فارسی نمی باشد. وبسایت اینترنشنال لایبرری ارائه دهنده کتاب های زبان اصلی می باشد و هیچ گونه کتاب ترجمه شده یا نوشته شده به فارسی را ارائه نمی دهد.
این کتاب چالشها و فرصتهای ارائهشده توسط پلاستیک در دوران مدرن را پوشش میدهد و تأثیر متقابل پیچیده فناوری، محیط زیست و پویاییهای اجتماعی-اقتصادی را روشن میکند. با کاوش کامل در تاریخچه، کاربردها و پتانسیل پلاستیک ها، این کتاب تاثیر پلاستیک فراتر از پلاستیک های یکبار مصرف را بررسی می کند، و چندین کاربرد پلاستیکی درازمدت را که برای امنیت غذایی، مدیریت منابع آب، حفاظت از محیط زیست مهم هستند، نقد می کند. مرمت و شهرنشینی پایدار همچنین چارچوبهایی را برای دستیابی به اقتصاد پلاستیک پایدارتر و همسو با اهداف توسعه پایدار بررسی میکند. این کتاب شامل 13 فصل است که با ارزیابی انتقادی پلاستیک در زمینه توسعه پایدار و جامعه جهانی آغاز می شود. این مقاله با مروری تاریخی از تکامل پلاستیک ادامه میدهد و نقاط عطف و نوآوریهای مهم در صنعت مدرن و زندگی روزمره را به نمایش میگذارد. فصلهای بعدی به موضوعات مختلفی میپردازند: روابط پیچیده بین پلاستیک، امنیت غذایی و شهرنشینی پایدار. تاثیر پلاستیک بر ایمنی، مدیریت، توزیع و حفاظت از آب؛ پتانسیل آنها به عنوان یک منبع انرژی جایگزین؛ و کاربردهای نوآورانه آنها در حمل و نقل پایدار و تولید انرژی. تاکید بر نقش پلاستیک در کاهش ضایعات و بازیافت، و همچنین آخرین جایگزین های پایدار مانند مواد زیست تخریب پذیر و قابل بازیافت است. در بخشهای پایانی کتاب، خوانندگان با ساختمانهای سبز و شهرهای مقاوم در برابر آب و هوا که با استفاده از مواد پلاستیکی نوآورانه ساخته شدهاند، و اهمیت پلاستیک در اکتشاف فضا آشنا میشوند. این کتاب با یک چشمانداز آیندهنگر در مورد آینده پلاستیک، همراه با توصیههایی برای همزیستی پایدارتر بین جامعه و این مواد همهکاره به پایان میرسد. این کتاب منبع ارزشمندی برای محققان، سیاستگذاران، متخصصان صنعت و شهروندانی است که به دنبال بررسی چشمانداز پیچیده پلاستیکها، پیامدهای زیستمحیطی آنها و پتانسیل آنها برای توسعه پایدار هستند.
This book covers the challenges and opportunities presented by plastics in the modern era and sheds light on the complex interplay of technology, environment, and socio-economic dynamics. With a thorough exploration of the history, uses, and potential of plastics, the book reviews the impact of plastics beyond single-use plastics, and critiques multiple long-term plastic applications that are significant for food security, water resource management, ecological conservation/restoration, and sustainable urbanization. It also explores frameworks for achieving a more sustainable plastic economy aligned with sustainable development goals. This book comprises 13 chapters, commencing with a critical assessment of plastics in the context of sustainable development and global society. It proceeds with a historical overview of plastics\' evolution, showcasing pivotal milestones and innovations in modern industry and daily life. Subsequent chapters delve into diverse topics: the intricate relationships between plastics, food security, and sustainable urbanization; plastics\' impact on water safety, management, distribution, and conservation; their potential as an alternative energy source; and their innovative applications in sustainable transportation and energy generation. Emphasis is placed on plastics\' role in waste reduction and recycling, as well as the latest sustainable alternatives like biodegradable and recyclable materials. In the book\'s final sections, readers will learn about green buildings and climate-resilient cities constructed using innovative plastic materials, and plastics\' significance in space exploration. The book concludes with a forward-looking perspective on plastics\' future, accompanied by recommendations for a more sustainable coexistence between society and these versatile materials. This book is a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, industry professionals, and concerned citizens seeking to navigate the intricate landscape of plastics, their environmental implications, and their potential for sustainable development.
