A pressing need exists to understand how, when, and why to adjust and build upon urban environmental policies that can influence a city’s capacity to foster and enact climate adaptation and mitigation. The objective of this book has been to define what we can learn from past urban environmental crises and resulting policy transitions that might be applicable to understand how climate change will manifest as crises in cities and what can be done to help accelerate urban climate action. In this chapter, we more directly turn our attention to learning what the book’s case studies reveal about these objectives. The case studies illustrate how existing urban environmental practices can be adjusted and enhanced to better grapple with the challenges of climate change. The analysis provides the groundwork for a set of innovative recommendations on how to perceive the urban climate crisis and how to consider new urban climate change policies. A key overall conclusion is that we should do all we can to learn from previous urban environmental crises as they will continue to inform us moving into the future.
The social work, health and human services sectors employ a variety of professionals to provide care to people. There is an increasing need for practitioners to be skilled in ethical decision making as the professional practice context becomes more complex and concerned with risk management. Interprofessional Ethics explores the ethical frameworks, policies and procedures of professional practice for multidisciplinary teams in health, government and community-based workplaces. The second edition includes content on criminology, environmental practice, youth work practice, the intersection of law and ethics, and cultural content, including non-Western philosophies and Indigenous worldviews. New 'Through the eyes of a practitioner' boxes provide insight into the professional experiences of practitioners in the field, while reflection points and links to further readings encourage students to think critically about the content. Interprofessional Ethics encourages readers to better understand the perspectives, approaches and values of others, preparing them to work within collaborative teams.
