Title: Industry and environment in Latin America
Description: "Most discussion of environmental issues in Latin America has focused on the 'green issues' of deforestation and land degradation. Although the majority of Latin Americans live in urban areas and the region has industrialised and urbanised rapidly, relatively little attention has been paid to the 'brown issues' such as industrial pollution. Industry and Environment in Latin America attempts to redress this imbalance." "Offering a wealth of empirical research material, and an important new perspective on the environmental implications of globalisation, this book represents essential reading for any scholar of environment or development-related subjects."--Jacket.
