Seasons

National Trust: A Story of the Seasons

Discover nature through the year

Most of us think about money every day. But how many of us know how it actually works?Every morning, someone unassumingly types numbers into a spreadsheet, hits enter and creates millions of pounds. Somewhere deep underground, a machine most of us will never see props up the entire British economy. And hidden in a vault nearby are individual banknotes worth £100 million each. These are just some of the surprising truths about how money works.The Bank of England know more about the money system than most - after all, it is their job to keep it running smoothly. Now, for the first time, two of its economists take you deep into their vaults to tell you the inside story of money.They explain how ordinary banks are able to create money from scratch, and what stops that descending into chaos. They explore what causes inflation and why one country tried to solve rising prices by asking its citizens to cut all banknotes in half. They uncover how a baby hippo briefly became a global currency, and what that says about the future of money. And they reveal what goes on inside the Bank of England during a banking crisis, and why it means your money is safer now than ever before.Along the way, they explore how money is changing today - and what new technologies like crypto mean for its future. The result is a lively and surprising guide to how money is supposed to work, what happens when it doesn't, and where it might be going next.

Contemporary Studies in Corporate Law

Many attempts have been made to reduce the harms caused by business and to make companies become socially responsible. This book approaches the subject from a new perspective arguing that reflexive law offers the best means to align the interests of large companies with those of society and that recent developments in European company law fit a reflexive model. A reflexive company law, rather than trying to directly regulate companies, aims to affect internal decision-making processes to make companies responsive to outside interests and prevent them from operating as closed systems singularly focused on shareholder value. In this vein, the EU has recently imposed new obligations on companies to develop corporate sustainability reporting and due diligence processes as part of its objective to create a climate-neutral and sustainable economy. This book presents an argument for how the 'societal company' - a company that has an internal culture of transnational responsibility to do no harm but that retains the autonomy necessary to be economically productive - can be established through reflexive law. The book will appeal to researchers, policy makers and lawyers interested in corporate sustainability, regulatory theory, company law and EU law.

Sustainability, Shareholder Value, and European Company Law

The Societal Company

Reciprocity begins with a simple but unsettling question: why have we come to believe that human beings are naturally self-interested, competitive and acquisitive? This galvanising, perspective-shifting book dismantles the myth of Homo economicus to show us the way towards a world whose realities align with our true selves.Drawing on a variety of disciplines, including anthropology, archaeology, evolutionary biology, psychology, economics and social epidemiology, Richard Wilkinson demonstrates that the characteristics which we assume to be our human nature are in fact effects of the market societies we live in. He traces how various systems of exchange have created profoundly different forms of social life throughout the course of history, shaping our behaviours, motivations, and the kinds of people we become. Though it may often feel like it, the avarice and oppressions that defines the twenty-first century are not an unchangeable reality we simply have to live with.The book explains why inequality, status competition and consumerism hold so much power over us and reveals the depths to which these forces are entwined with the ever-rising crises of mental illness, political polarisation and environmental destruction. Rather than asking how we can make individuals behave better, it makes a compelling case for restructuring our societies to make life happier, meaningful and more fulfilling for one and all.Rigorously researched, bracingly practical and full of passion and hope in equal measure, Reciprocity offers a bold reinterpretation of the world we live in. It equips us with the necessary tools to look beyond and remake it in our very own, amiably human image.

Sustainable Finance

This book aims to explore possible solutions to the climate crisis through the tools provided by law, with particular emphasis on tax law. In a rapidly changing and constantly evolving society, taxation assumes increasing importance, as exchanges become as swift and complex as the connections that bring people closer together. Tax law permeates every activity involving an exchange, including those conducted remotely.The chapters follow a linear progression, moving from description to the proposal of concrete solutions. The analysis begins with an examination of the status quo, paying particular attention to the warnings raised by academics who have long highlighted the challenges posed by climate change and emphasized the need for a just transition. The discussion then turns to the issue of taxonomy, which plays a crucial role both in taxation and in green finance.Subsequently, the book explores the opportunities offered by well-designed labor taxation, especially in relation to the development of green jobs. It also provides an overview of the taxation of the digital market, considered in both the Italian and international contexts, in order to address current fiscal challenges.The final chapters set out several relevant solutions, including both short- and long-term measures, implemented through a range of legal instruments. In addition, the book offers macroeconomic perspectives, including reflections on possible adjustments to existing economic theories, with the aim of encouraging further research at the intersection of law and economics.

Paving the Way to a Sustainable Future

Taxation as a Catalyst for Environmental Protection

A bold, hopeful argument for using our oceans to meet the worldwide need for food, renewable energy, and economic well-being without sacrificing the health of the planet As the world struggles to feed humanity, fuel economies and trade, and fulfill global energy needs, companies and governments are rushing to the vast blue expanse that covers two-thirds of our planet. But should we let them? A Sea of Wealth makes the provocative case for why we must harness the ocean—and demonstrates how we can do so wisely. Blending the latest science with engaging personal stories from a lifetime spent in and around the ocean, Ben Halpern takes readers around the globe to explore five key resources in the rapidly emerging blue economy: food, energy, transport, minerals, and carbon. He carefully considers what each has to offer, their environmental risks, and how they compare to land-based alternatives, while wrestling with his own feelings about using the sea. The danger is that industry and government will push too fast, too far into the ocean. Yet these expanding uses could provide environmental solutions at a planetary scale. A timely book by one of the world’s most influential environmental scientists, A Sea of Wealth tackles the question of whether we should halt or encourage the exploitation of our oceans and their untold resources—the answers may surprise you.

Anthem Environment and Sustainability Initiative

This textbook is designed to introduce the reader to important and emerging issues in contemporary environmental law, policy, economics, and science. It explains the roles and interactions of Congress, federal agencies, state governments, and the courts in protecting the environment and public health from pollution. Topics include common law; administrative law; the role of environmental impact assessments and endangered species protection; and the principal legislation and court decisions dealing with greenhouse gas emissions, conventional and toxic air pollution, water pollution, the control of toxic chemicals and hazardous waste, pollution prevention and primary accident prevention, and community right-to-know. The text also explores various alternatives to regulation and concludes with a brief treatise on sustainability. 
The evolving role of science and economics in legislative, regulatory, and judicial decision making is explored. The text analyzes pollution as an economic problem and a failure of markets, discusses the role of technological innovation and the concept of "dynamic" economic equilibrium, and evaluates economic incentives as an alternative or supplement to regulation. The book also provides an introduction to basic legal skills: how to read and understand judicial opinions, regulations, and statutes; how to discover the current state of the law in a specific area; and how to take action toward resolution of environmental problems. Throughout, the role of national and local politics in shaping and implementing environmental policy is acknowledged and evaluated.

Reclaiming the Environmental Agenda - Revised Edition

Environmental Law, Policy, and Economics

Environmental challenges such as climate change, pollution, waste, and chemical risks have become increasingly complex and urgent. Although scientific knowledge is essential for understanding these issues, environmental science often remains inaccessible to students and researchers in the social sciences and humanities, where its concepts and mechanisms are perceived as a “black box.”
 This textbook offers a clear and accessible introduction to environmental science for readers without formal training in mathematics, chemistry, or physics. Avoiding equations and chemical formulas, the book explains environmental processes intuitively, using plain language and visual reasoning to show how human activities interact with natural systems. Readers are guided to understand not only 
 what environmental problems
 are, but 
 how they arise
 and 
 what kinds of technical, regulatory, and policy responses are available
 .
 The book gives particular attention to climate change, drawing on the latest scientific understanding presented in the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report, and examines both its physical basis and the challenges of mitigation and adaptation. It also addresses the growing global concern over plastic pollution, including international negotiations toward a legally binding agreement and Japan’s Plastic Resource Circulation Act.A distinctive feature of this volume is its systematic integration of Japan’s pollution control experience. Through cases ranging from air and water pollution to waste management, contaminated soil, and post-disaster environmental responses, Japan is presented as a lens for understanding broader principles of environmental science and environmental governance.

Flannery O'Connor on Writing

Humanity's most spectacular era yet is increasingly within reach.So why are we doing everything we can to hold it back?The bestselling author of The Rational Optimist delivers a daring vision of the future - one that is potentially dazzling, but only if we stop sleepwalking into self-inflicted decline.We're on the brink of a truly spectacular explosion of productivity and prosperity, argues Matt Ridley, thanks to a combination of artificial intelligence, material science and genomic knowledge that is unprecedented in its scope and implications. With characteristic wit and ferocity, he confronts the irrational pessimism that dominates public discourse and examines the bureaucratic bloat, regulatory overreach, ideological superstition and crony capitalism that stand in the way.Optimistic in conclusion but unsparing in its analysis, The Flourishing is a rousing call to achieve and innovate by refusing to settle for a merely adequate future when a magnificent one is within reach.
