"In a world where most people live in cities, charting a sustainable course into the future demands that we take urban environments as seriously as any other. This volume is filled with interesting ideas about what that means—and how it might give us real leverage against the scourge of radical inequality."

Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature

​

"The City is an Ecosystem artfully demonstrates the sciences and the humanities working together under climate crisis conditions. With integrated knowledge around everyday concerns in urban settings, and aiming for systemic change, this volume will be invaluable to teachers, researchers and activists working on the inequities introduced by climate change."

Elizabeth Mazzolini, author of The Everest Effect: Nature, Culture, Ideology

"The City is an Ecosystem: Sustainable Education, Policy, and Practice delves deeply into the interrelated nature of urban climate change, biodiversity loss, and social inequality. It highlights cities as socio-ecological systems with a focus on human rights, equity, and justice and identifies impactful opportunities for enhancing urban sustainability education."

Cynthia Rosenzweig, Head of Climate Impacts Group, NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies
