This book is an extensive treatment of environmental issues with a focus on the 15 countries in the Baltic Sea region. The book covers the effects of environmental impacts on landscape, biodiversity, water, atmosphere, soil, ecosystems, and people. Also examined is how society deals with environmental impacts be engineering, economic and legal means as well as international cooperation. Considerable space is given to aspects of environmental management as a systematic way for society to cope with environmental problems. There is an abundance of case studies, mostly from the region, and comparisons are made between the situation in Northern Europe and the rest of the world. There is also concrete information about European Union directives as well as UN conventions that deal with the environment.
Environmental science is defined as the interface between society and nature. The text is thus highly interdisciplinary, and about half the book is allocated to natural sciences and half to social sciences. Ethics, behaviour, lifestyle, and education issues are included.
