Tracing the first two decades of state-funded African American schools, Educational Reconstruction addresses the ways in which black Richmonders, black Mobilians, and their white allies created, developed, and sustained a system of African American schools following the Civil War. Hilary Green proposes a new chronology in understanding postwar African American education, examining how urban African Americans demanded quality public schools from their new city and state partners. Revealing the significant gains made after the departure of the Freedmen’s Bureau, this study reevaluates African American higher education in terms of developing a cadre of public school educator-activists and highlights the centrality of urban African American protest in shaping educational decisions and policies in their respective cities and states.

Описание: Cities currently account for about two-thirds of the world’s annual energy consumption and about 70 percent of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In the coming decades, urbanisation and income growth in developing countries are expected to push cities’ energy consumption and GHG emissions shares even higher, particularly where the majority of people remain underserved by basic infrastructure services and where city authorities are under-resourced to shift current trajectories. These challenges are faced by many cities and millions of people in the East Asia and Pacific (EAP) Region, which is experiencing unprecedented rates of urbanisation, as the region’s urban population grows almost twice as fast as the world’s urban population. This book lays out a blueprint for transforming EAP cities to global engines of green growth by choosing energy efficient solutions to their infrastructure needs. It urges national and municipal governments to reform institutions, build capacity, and strengthen energy planning and governance in order to mainstream energy efficiency on a citywide scale and introduce low-carbon policies in fast-growing cities in the EAP Region which will define the Region's energy future and its GHG footprint. This book is based on case studies undertaken in three pilot cities -- Cebu City (the Philippines), Da Nang (Vietnam), and Surabaya (Indonesia) -- which illustrate the use of an energy efficiency platform -- SUEEP (sustainable urban energy and emissions planning) -- for the identification and prioritisation of green investments across all major infrastructure sectors. It presents the SUEEP process as a framework for collaboration between municipal governments, stakeholders, private investors and financing institutions in achieving the green growth objectives at the city level. It also provides step-by-step guidance on the SUEEP framework in the form of a Guidebook to help a city develop its own energy and emissions plan and link its aspirations to actionable initiatives to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions.

Описание: In early twentieth-century America, affluent city-dwellers made a habit of venturing out of doors and vacationing in resorts and national parks. Yet the rich and the privileged were not the only ones who sought respite in nature. In this pathbreaking book, historian Colin Fisher demonstrates that working-class white immigrants and African Americans in rapidly industrializing Chicago also fled the urban environment during their scarce leisure time. If they had the means, they traveled to wilderness parks just past the city limits as well as to rural resorts in Wisconsin and Michigan. But lacking time and money, they most often sought out nature within the city itself--at urban parks and commercial groves, along the Lake Michigan shore, even in vacant lots. Chicagoans enjoyed a variety of outdoor recreational activities in these green spaces, and they used them to forge ethnic and working-class community. While narrating a crucial era in the history of Chicago's urban development, Fisher makes important interventions in debates about working-class leisure, the history of urban parks, environmental justice, the African American experience, immigration history, and the cultural history of nature.

Описание: Cities face critical challenges connected to population growth, urbanisation, and climate change. Fundamental transformations in urban planning, community design, and infrastructure development are absolutely needed to address the problems raised by land use changes. A transition from conventional urban development models to a green or low-carbon future needs to change the system of the "systems", such as energy, water, waste, mobility, and infrastructure systems. Cities are facing huge pressure and great opportunities to make these transitions through more effective arrangement of land use development footprints. This book introduces the significant trend of urban planning towards green growth and low-carbon development patterns and reviews the history of urban development models while illustrating key concepts underpinning theories of green growth and low-carbon development. Introduced in this book are broad concepts of urban and land use planning, and a description of practical planning approaches. The authors explain how to incorporate core "green" and "low-carbon" concepts into urban planning and community development. Also discussed are the tools and processes necessary to develop a green and low-carbon development strategy where the major methods include energy conservation and efficiency, transportation planning, liveability and walkability techniques, environmental planning, low impact community design skills, planning support systems, and public participation. A diverse range of examples, from North America, Europe, Africa, and China, are provided to analyse the barriers and solutions in socio-technical transitions emerging in different urban contexts. An international context of urban planning and a proposed model to assess future conditions, evaluate policy choices, create visions, and compare scenarios is presented. This book can help academics, policy makers, practitioners and researchers interested in the development of green cities and low-carbon development.

Nowadays, many people still have not heard about microgreens. This is because, for a very long time, Microgreens haven't been around. When Microgreens were first published on chefs' menus in the 1980s, they originated from San Fran ois. It did not, however, become popular until the 1990s. Their influence then began to spread east, and now microgreens are grown in many other countries in the United States and even elsewhere. Beets, arugula, basil, kale, and cilantro were among the first varieties to be grown. Today's development continues to increase the number of varieties.
In 2010, micro-greens became increasingly popular in the food industry. In most grocery stores worldwide, microgreens started appearing around that time.
Finally, in 2012, the micro-greens got the boost they wanted in the food industry. Researchers in the U.S. eventually became interested in microgreens and studied their nutritional composition and shelf life of microgreens. More than 25 microgreen varieties have been studied. Microgreen media outlets such as The Huffington Post and the National Public Radio gained coverage in this study. Everyone was soon interested in the high nutritional values of microgreens, recently discovered. Microgreen's only short shelf lives are defects. Researchers are also finding ways of extending their shelf lives, however. One way of doing this is to maximize and increase the visibility of microgreen packaging.

Описание: Using a broad international comparative perspective spanning multiple countries across South America, Europe and Africa, contributors explore resident-led self-building for low- and middle-income groups in urban areas. Although social, economic and urban prosperity differs across these contexts, there exists a recurring, cross-continental, tension between formal governance and self-regulation.Contributors examine the multifaceted regulation dilemmas of self-building under the conditions of modernisation and consider alternative methods of institutionalisation, place-making and urban design, reconceptualising the moral and managerial ownership of the city. Innovative in scope, this book provides an array of globalised solutions for navigating regulatory tensions in order to optimise sustainable development for the future.
