The global food crisis is a stark reminder of the fragility of the global food system. The Global Food Crisis: Governance Challenges and Opportunities captures the debate about how to go forward and examines the implications of the crisis for food security in the world’s poorest countries, both for the global environment and for the global rules and institutions that govern food and agriculture. In this volume, policy-makers and scholars assess the causes and consequences of the most recent food price volatility and examine the associated governance challenges and opportunities, including short-term emergency responses, the ecological dimensions of the crisis, and the longer-term goal of building sustainable global food systems. The recommendations include vastly increasing public investment in small-farm agriculture; reforming global food aid and food research institutions; establishing fairer international agricultural trade rules; promoting sustainable agricultural methods; placing agriculture higher on the post-Kyoto climate change agenda; revamping biofuel policies; and enhancing international agricultural policy-making.

Global Tourism is a worldwide phenomenon that is the pulse of the world's economies with the major players being transportation, mass travel and energy consumption. Tourism is actually booming and the mass movement of people by air-, land- and water-transportation has tripled in the last several decades. Mass Tourism's dark side is the gas emissions' pollution of air, water and the environments by transporters' engines and infectious diseases. This is reaching alarming levels. Some of the most dire consequences are climate change, global warming and medication-resistant pathogens. GLOBAL TOURISM & THE ENVIRONMENT: THE NECESSITIES FOR CLEAN ENERGY & CLEAN TRANSPORTATION USAGES discusses ways to stem the tide of transportations' pollution and contamination of the Earth.

The culture of advertising our needs, desires, interests and products is deeply embedded in human nature. It is also a universal natural tendency. We advertise ourselves, our activities and products for a wider audience, to evoke interest, entertain, educate, impart knowledge and spread corporate interests, democratic ideals, competitiveness and world knowledge. ADVERTISING AND THE SPREAD OF BUSINESS, DEMOCRACY AND KNOWLEDGE, demonstrates that advertisements do not only benefit industry and corporations [as taken for granted] but they also benefit the public in spreading, cultivating and practising democracy and free speech, and inculcating knowledge. Think of this every time you see an advertisement.

In Soil Not Oil, Vandana Shiva explains that a world beyond dependence on fossil fuels and globalization is both possible and necessary. Condemning industrial agriculture as a recipe for ecological and economic disaster, Shiva champions the small, independent farm: their greater productivity, their greater potential for social justice as they put more resources into the hands of the poor, and the biodiversity that is inherent to the traditional farming practiced in small-scale agriculture. What we need most in a time of changing climates and millions who are hungry, she argues, is sustainable, biologically diverse farms that are more resistant to disease, drought, and flood. “The solution to climate change,” she observes, “and the solution to poverty are the same.” Soil Not Oil proposes a solution based on self-organization, sustainability, and community rather than corporate power and profits.
