Totems
 brings together ten texts by architect, historian, and critic Irénée Scalbert. Written between 2001 and 2025, they reflect nearly three decades of critical engagement with architecture and its cultural contexts. Ranging in length and register-from concise meditations to extended analytical essays-the collection captures the evolution of Scalbert's thinking as a critic, teacher, and participant in architectural discourse.
 Organized thematically into sections on buildings, cities, and the environment, Totems traces a loosely autobiographical arc. Earlier pieces echo Scalbert's formative years in London during a period of architectural ferment are marked by the work of James Stirling and Norman Foster, influential figures from Europe such as Aldo Rossi, as well as his close association with a generation of contemporaries including Peter St John (Caruso St John Architects), and Tom Emerson and Stephanie Macdonald (6a architects). Later texts expand outward, both geographically and conceptually, as Scalbert brings a speculative and at times personal lens to questions of urbanism, nature, and meaning in contemporary architecture.

This volume for academics, entrepreneurs or corporate leaders offers global perspectives and inspiring pathways to embed sustainability at the heart of businesses.

Innovating Business and Education for Sustainable Development

Architects, historians, and theorists have had a weird obsession with fascist architecture since postmodernism. Why? And who are the antifascist architects? What does antifascist architecture look like? Antifascist Architecture is the first attempt at creating a working definition of antifascist architecture after academia has spent decades fetishizing fascist architecture.
 Brilliant scholarship has of course been presented about anti-colonial architecture, liberation architecture, and so forth. Yet antifascist architecture is an avenue that remains to be explored. This book does just that, offering a kaleidoscopic, peripatetic bricolage of architects who heroically aligned themselves with antifascist struggles, buildings made in the name of antifascism, and a call to arms for antifascist utopian futures. It is written for students and practitioners of architecture, but also activists and scholars in the social sciences who are interested in antifascist history, theory, and practice.

The Mining Rush in the 21st Century: Dynamics and Outlooks for 2050 is a geopolitical analysis that explains how the global energy transition and the digital revolution are creating massive demand for strategic metals such as lithium and cobalt, forcing humanity to extract more resources in 25 years than in its entire history to combat global warming, while highlighting the risks of dependence, environmental challenges and opportunities for Africa. The book covers a broad spectrum, from the urgency of time - with a critical window of action closing in 2032 - to the vulnerabilities of supply chains, dominated by China (85% of rare earths) and the DRC (70% of cobalt). It highlights the paradox of the green transition: to save the planet from global warming, metals must be extracted on a massive scale, posing colossal technical, environmental, social and ethical challenges. The scope extends to technological innovation (AI in prospecting, seabed mining), Africa's pivotal role in sustainable development beyond the colonial extractive model, and projections up to 2050. Aimed at a diverse audience - researchers, students, decision-makers, NGOs - the book includes more than 50 graphs, case studies (e.g. scandals in the DRC), expert boxes and a glossary for accessibility. It stands out for its holistic approach, combining field expertise, quantitative data (IEA, USGS) and concrete solutions for responsible governance, bridging the gap between geopolitical and technical analyses. It also anticipates post-2025 trends to guide the securing of global supplies.

Waste Management in the Circular Economy Context explores sustainable waste management within the context of a circular economy through a comprehensive exploration of policies, innovative technologies, and case studies aimed at fostering a greener future. This practical reference book dissects the critical interplay between energy waste management and economic considerations, offering invaluable insights into circular economy frameworks, waste management challenges, regulatory policies, circular business models, consumer behavior transformations, and the design and development of waste heat recovery technologies. Key chapters discuss waste management challenges, policy frameworks, circular business models, consumer behavior shifts, and the development of waste heat recovery technologies. Further, it digs into practical applications contexts such as municipal waste management, e-waste management, wastewater management, and integrated waste management, culminating in a forward-looking conclusion and future outlook on sustainable waste practices. With a focus on promoting responsible consumption and harnessing innovative technologies like heat pipe heat exchangers, this book serves as a valuable resource for consultants, policymakers, and organizations striving to advance circular economy principles in waste management practices.

Waste Management in the Circular Economy Context

Striving for greater consumer product circularity The United States generated approximately 292.4 million tons of municipal solid waste in 2018-an estimated 4.9 pounds of waste per person, per day. We manage MSW in several ways including recycling and composting, landfilling, and combustion, with expenses typically borne by municipalities. Increasingly, there's recognition and action toward a more circular, rather than linear, progression of products and materials. Instead of "trashing" resources, they should be recirculated, thus extending product lifecycles. Many product manufacturers are embracing product circularity, sharing responsibility for their products and packaging through Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). From the editor of Handbook of Household Hazardous Waste comes this collection of cases on product stewardship and EPR for paint, mattresses, and other products. Producer Responsibility in Practice shares examples of resource recovery programs and ways to effectively engage stakeholders, for example, in supporting legislation and employing community-based social marketing to motivate consumer behavior. Chapters are written by practitioners who share their perspectives to inform producers; officials and legislators; solid waste management and environmental professionals and students, as well as others interested in building EPR and fostering a more circular economy.

Producer Responsibility in Practice

An engaging, beautifully illustrated history of London told through twenty-five lost buildingsLondon has been rebuilt and reshaped perhaps more than any other city over its two-millennia history. From the construction of the Underground to slum clearance and the Blitz, buildings have long been damaged or demolished to pave way for the new. Today, demolition is big business, and around 3500 buildings are destroyed each year, most of which are social housing.Paul Knox traces the history of London from the Great Fire to the present day through twenty-five lost buildings. Knox explores surprising and unusual locations in the city's history, like the Necropolis Station in Waterloo used by funeral parties traveling to a burial ground in Surrey. We see historic landmarks, like Christ Church Greyfriars and the Crystal Palace, as well as everyday places like the White Horse pub in Poplar and a housing estate in Hackney. This is a fascinating study of London's restless landscape, showing how conservation has changed over 400 years.

Lost London

“Raffish and spirited . . . a nonconformist cri de coeur . . .&nbsp;&nbsp;Usually, comparisons to Bourdain are fatuous. This time it’s accurate . . . It’s been a long time since I’ve read so good and rowdy a memoir about blue-collar work.” — Dwight Garner, The New York Times AN INDIE BESTSELLER A Montreal garbageman's sharp and funny memoir/exposé, in which he attempts to convince people to "stop imagining that your garbage magically disappears" . . . This fascinating no-bullshit account of twenty years in waste management paints a vivid portrait of the heroic labor, anarchic spirit, and violent conditions of the people who keep our cities clean. Paré-Poupart’s story is atypical: he started working as a garbageman to pay for school, and after earning graduate degrees and working in more “respectable” fields, he is still on a truck — out of love for the physical rush, for his rough-and-tumble colleagues, and for an honesty and freedom that no other job has yet given him. Includes eight black and white photographs of the author on the job.&nbsp; His sociology background informs his inquiry into our collective wastefulness and individual failure to confront the trash we produce. Every abstract observation comes with hilarious and hair-raising stories from the collection route to his days off spent hunting down furniture and toys for family and friends, as a committed freegan. Trash! — the French edition of which is a runaway bestseller in Canada — explains and questions efforts to “clean up” a business with longstanding conventions of its own, a last bastion of well-paid employment for people who cannot fit in anywhere else. Aligned with great books about work from Zola to Orwell to Lucia Berlin, and in dialogue with societal critiques like How To Do Nothing, Trash! will change how you think about your waste and the people who handle it.
