Summary:
Le changement climatique est une réalité vécue maintenant quotidiennement au travers des événements météorologiques extrêmes qui se multiplient. Les villes sont en première ligne de ces bouleversements, à la fois responsables et victimes. Sont-elles condamnées ? Non. En prenant l'exemple de Paris, cet essai montre que les solutions existent et que les villes peuvent s'adapter pour se préparer à ce futur et devenir des métropoles écologiques et bioclimatiques. En 2050, Paris aura le climat de Marseille aujourd'hui. Il y a donc urgence à adapter Paris à ce nouveau climat, en s'inspirant de l'architecture traditionnelle méditerranéenne et en intégrant toutes les nouvelles approches bioclimatiques. C'est ce à quoi nous exhorte Franck Lirzin, s'appuyant sur les dernières découvertes scientifiques et innovations technologiques afin de montrer les voies de l'adaptation climatique de Paris, et de créer une véritable capitale écologique, une « écotopie ». Quelles décisions devons-nous prendre aujourd'hui pour nous assurer une qualité de vie acceptable demain ? Franck Lirzin est polytechnicien et ingénieur des mines, diplômé de l'EHESS. Haut fonctionnaire, il a été dirigeant d'une entreprise engagée dans la transformation de la ville.

Summary:
"Landscapes of retreat" explores climate adaptation through portraits of land left behind as settlement patterns shift with a changing climate. Here, "landscape" refers to the earth alive with creatures and organisms, while "retreat" suggests human patterns are fluid and adaptable. Featuring field studies from Nijinomatsubara Forest (Japan), Maule River (Chile), Niugtaq(...)

Summary:
"Landscapes of retreat" explores climate adaptation through portraits of land left behind as settlement patterns shift with a changing climate. Here, "landscape" refers to the earth alive with creatures and organisms, while "retreat" suggests human patterns are fluid and adaptable. Featuring field studies from Nijinomatsubara Forest (Japan), Maule River (Chile), Niugtaq Village (Alaska), Langtang Park (Nepal), and Gaspésie Peninsula (Québec), the stories emphasize that valuing landscapes fosters community resilience. Cutting across history, fieldwork, and geography, "Landscapes of retreat" rethinks "change" as a shared pathway toward adaptive, collaborative climate futures. Winner of the 2024 J.B. Jackson Book Award from the Landscape Studies Initiative at the University of Virginia.

Summary:
With a deep anticolonial and antiracist critique of what “conservation” currently is, this volume presents an alternative vision—one already working—of the most effective and just way to fight against biodiversity loss and climate change. This powerful collection of voices takes us to the heart of the climate justice movement and the struggle for life and land across the globe. With Indigenous Peoples and their rights at its center, the book exposes the brutal and deadly realities of colonial and racist conservation for people around the world, while revealing the problems of current climate policy approaches that do nothing to tackle the real causes of environmental destruction.
