Teaching Competence and Teacher Education in the United States.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of the state of teaching competence and teacher education in the United States and recommend changes in policy and practice that, if made in concert, could create the conditions for a gradual upgrading of teacher competence and occasion a considerable qualitative improvement in teacher education.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peak energy and climate change: The double bind of post-normal science
TL;DR: The concept of post-normal science has been introduced for precisely this kind of situation, where "facts are uncertain, values in dispute, stakes high and decisions urgent" as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecoethics: Now Central to All Ethics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define eco-ethics very broadly to deal with dilemmas over a vast range of scales, and believe they now should penetrate virtually all areas of human activities.
Dissertation
Deep ecology: should we embrace this philosophy?
TL;DR: Deep ecology (DE) as discussed by the authors is a philosophy that is based on a phenomenological approach to the understanding of nature and its relationship with human beings, which has been shown to be beneficial in the context of the current environmental crisis.
Potential consequences of increasing atmospheric co2 concentration compared to other environmental problems
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the validity of the assertion that anthropogenic climate change is the overriding environmental concern facing the globe today and determine that over the next several decades the projected global impacts of climate change upon food security, deforestation, biodiversity, and human health could be an order of magnitude smaller than those due to other stressors such as population growth, poverty, land conversion, or baseline (non-climate change related) rates of infectious and parasitic diseases.
