Sweeping The Library

Sweeping The Library, part one

Sweeping The Library, part two

At the end of the video, there's an invitation to people in or near Oregon to come sweep Knight Library at the University of Oregon, and use one of our classrooms as your staging ground. You can bounce ideas with me, or debrief and sort your articles into categories after you get done.

What's below is the bait I'm dangling in front of you to tempt you to come. It is by no means an exhaustive list of all the books or journals in the U of O library that I think you and a club ought to check out. This is just scratching the surface. You can find some awfully good evidence that no one else has, if you're willing to roll up your sleeves and work hard.

Books I think you should at least look at. Every last one of these is a 2009 book, and all are in the U of O library:
  • Becoming good ancestors: how we balance nature, community, and technology, David Ehrenfeld

  • Blue-green coalitions: fighting for safe workplaces and healthy communities, Brian Mayer

  • Conservation psychology: understanding and promoting human care for nature, Susan Clayton

  • Contagion and chaos: disease, ecology, and national security in the era of globalization, Andrew T. Price-Smith

  • Recalibrating the law of humans with the laws of nature: climate change, human rights and intergenerational justice, Burns Weston

  • Smart green: how to implement sustainable business practices in any industry and make money, Jonathan Estes

  • The economics of climate change policies: macroeconomic effects, structural adjustments and technological change, Rainer Walz

  • The environmental food crisis: the environment's role in averting future food crises: a UNEP rapid response assessment, Christian Nelleman

  • The global deal: climate change and the creation of a new era of progress and prosperity, Nicholas Stern

  • The human right to a green future: environmental rights and intergenerational justice, Richard P. Hiskes

  • Why we disagree about climate change: understanding controversy, inaction and opportunity, Michael Hulme

  • Yellowstone and the snowmobile: locking horns over national park use, Michael J. Yochim
