Description
* Description
* Environmental stories have all the elements of a good drama—villains that plunge the world into danger and heroes that
fight for positive change. Industrial Disasters and Environmental Policy: Stories of Villains, Heroes, and the Rest of
Us illuminates the interplay between environmental policies and the people and groups who influence their development
and implementation. Through the stories of four major industrial disasters—the Union Carbide explosion, the BP oil
spill, the Upper Big Branch
Mine explosion, and the asbestos poisoning in Libby, Montana—this book examines the organizational breakdowns and
regulatory lapses that caused these disasters, and how attitudes and policies changed as a result. It also explores the
achievements of environmental heroes like Gaylord Nelson and Judy Bonds and how their activism has shaped US
environmental politics and policies.
Industrial Disasters and Environmental Policy concludes with a discussion of how the "rest of us" can participate in
everyday environmental actions, hold corporations and the government accountable, and lobby for greater environmental
protections. With its compelling stories and calls to action, this book helps students understand how US environmental
policies have developed and transformed—and how they can continue to do so.
