Managing Land Use

Earth's land area is being changed-and sometimes damaged-by human activities. Forest removal, overgrazing, industrialization, and agriculture transform the land that supports all life. Mananging Land Use explores the effects of these activities, ways of preventing or repairing land degradation, and the laws and practices that govern land ownership and management. Book jacket.
