    Description: Each year, the world burns an area of forest and natural vegetation equivalent to that of Europe. Climate, human activities and vegetation are the three main factors that control fires and sometimes modify their behaviour and even their danger. The danger is therefore increasing in certain "hot spots" around the world where most fires are concentrated, particularly with the development of mega-fires. However, the millennia-old history of fires in the world teaches us that fire is a natural process that is essential for the maintenance of many ecosystems and species. In many countries, it is also an ally in cultivating the land. The effects of fire can therefore be dramatic, but also beneficial. There is little literature on fire on a global scale. Aimed at decision-makers as well as a wider public, this book, illustrated with numerous examples, is a synthesis of current knowledge on the ecology of fire and its geography. It suggests that it is possible to live sustainably with fire provided that we adapt and manage landscapes intelligently, in order to reduce the risk of fire while preserving biodiversity.

    Description: Faced with the ecological imperative, how have public action and professional and citizen practices been positioned and reconfigured in France in the fields of urban planning and architecture since the 2000s? How have the injunctions of sustainable development and ecological transition been translated into public policies, mediation mechanisms and project situations? This book analyses, from a comprehensive and critical perspective, the political, professional, citizen, scientific and media spheres that have mobilised and interacted to negotiate this societal shift. It describes the tensions that have arisen between an approach to the ecological city that is still marked by normative and productivist logics, and another based on the idea of sobriety and the capacity of the citizen-inhabitant to control the transformation of his or her living environment. In an economic context strongly influenced by neo-liberal logics, it questions the very notion of 'factory' which has progressively replaced that of production in the fields of urban transformation since the beginning of the third millennium. This book brings together articles by a group of researchers - sociologists, geographers, urban planners, architects - who are members of different scientific laboratories in France and who have actively contributed to this reflection. It is intended for academics and students of architecture, urban planning or urban engineering, as well as for practitioners and actors in charge of developing ecological urban policies.

    Description: La question climatique s’est diffusée dans de nombreuses sphères de la vie publique, forçant des acteurs parfois assez éloignés des enjeux écologiques à s’y intéresser. Un nombre croissant de firmes, d’associations et d’institutions se voient désormais contraints à repenser leurs orientations stratégiques, leurs routines organisationnelles et leurs pratiques économiques. L’auteur propose de saisir les évolutions en cours comme le résultat d’une « climatisation » du monde. Cette expression traduit la capacité du changement climatique à connecter et à agréger toutes sortes de sujets aussi divers que la sécurité alimentaire, la finance ou les sols. Paradoxalement, cette force d’attraction rend la formation des politiques climatiques de plus en plus complexe. En décryptant la gouvernance climatique instaurée notamment dans les Conferences of Parties, les COP, Stefan C. Aykut aide également à en cerner les effets ambigus et contradictoires.

    Description: Food security, jobs, ecological transition of production and consumption modes and more One of the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals, agro-ecology could be one solution for meeting the forthcoming challenges for humanity. Cirad and AFD set out their thoughts on agro-ecology as a means for Southern agricultural systems to adapt to global change and on conditions for a successful agro-ecological transition.

    Description: "Food security, jobs, ecological transition of agricultural production models and consumption patterns... Agroecology could be one of the solutions to meet the future challenges of humanity. Part of the United Nation’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals, it requires a lasting commitment from all of us. To meet the food and economic needs of growing rural and urban communities, fulfil increasingly demanding consumer requirements, conserve natural resources and adapt to climate change, we have to find new ways of agricultural production. Over the last decade, CIRAD and AFD have conducted experiments in agroecological transitions with farmers, researchers, development agents and policymakers in many countries of the Global South. In this book, they reflect on the future of agroecology as a way for agriculture in the developing world to adapt to global changes and they examine the conditions necessary for a successful agroecological transition."
