Consuming with a conscience is one of the fastest growing forms of political participation worldwide. Every day we make decisions about how to spend our money and, for the socially conscious, these decisions matter. Political consumers "buy green" for the environment or they "buy pink" to combat breast cancer. They boycott Taco Bell to support migrant workers or Burger King to save the rainforest.
But can we overcome the limitations of consumer identity, the conservative pull of consumer choice, co-optation by corporate marketers, and other pitfalls of consumer activism in order to marshal the possibilities of consumer power? Can we, quite literally, shop for change? Shopping for Change brings together the historical and contemporary perspectives of academics and activists to show readers what has been possible for consumer activists in the past and what might be possible for today’s consumer activists.

Описание: In this lively history of consumer debt in America, economic historian Louis Hyman demonstrates that today's problems are not as new as we think. "Borrow" examines how the rise of consumer borrowing--virtually unknown before the twentieth century--has altered our culture and economy. Starting in the years before the Great Depression, increased access to money raised living standards but also introduced unforeseen risks. As lending grew more and more profitable, it displaced funds available for business borrowing, setting our economy on an unsustainable course. Told through the vivid stories of individuals and institutions affected by these changes, "Borrow" charts the collision of commerce and culture in twentieth-century America, giving an historical perspective on what is new--and what is not--in today's economic turmoil.

Описание: Climate is the fixed or slightly varying pattern of weather of an area prevailing over a period of time. Climatology attempts to explain the impact of climatic conditions, to assist people in planning and building infrastructure and issuing warnings about potential dangers. Paleoclimatology, historical climatology, and paleotempestology are the different approaches used for determining the past and future global climatic patterns. Since climates are dynamic and complex, they are difficult to deal with. Constant in-depth research and efforts are required on the part of climatologists to deal with these frequently varying patterns. This book presents the research and studies performed by experts across the globe. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers. This text will benefit climatologists, environmentalists, atmospheric scientists, professional and students alike.
