Abstract

Two years ago, a book written by L. K. Caldwell, Between Two Worlds: Science, the Environmental Movement and Policy Choice, was published by the Cambridge University Press. It dealt with the relationship between science and the world of people. Caldwell shows how science can help shape new relationships between people and environment when information is clearly transmitted... which is not always the case. He reminds us that when the popular environmental movement was looking to science for guidance, most sciences, including regional science, were unprepared to explain the interactions between regional growth, economic evolution and environment changes in a way that people could understand to have an effect on public behaviour and decisions. The fundamental question of environmental policies in the late 1990s is how to use knowledge about the evaluation of environmental conditions in regional planning terms. The principal purpose of this chapter is to make basic issues and planning implications of climate changes accessible to regional scientists and to a broad public.
