The City of Richmond and the Virginia Department of Transportation proposed to rehabilitate the Gambles Mill Trail connecting the University of Richmond (UR) to the intersection of Huguenot and River Road. Planners envision this trail as a sustainable model for the reduction of nutrient and sediment flow and as a vital path in a city-wide network of bike and pedestrian trails. Meanwhile, UR also proposes to rehabilitate the corridor in their new Master Plan. Nevertheless, until now, no substantive studies exist on the trail or the corridor linking the trail to the south side of the James River through the …

Since contact, the assumption of indigenous people unproductively managing their forested homelands has fueled colonization, deforestation, …
Environmental Imaginaries Of The Middle East And North Africa, Diana K. Davis, Edmund Burke Iii
Environmental Imaginaries Of The Middle East And North Africa, Diana K. Davis, Edmund Burke Iii
Ohio University Press Open Access Books
The landscapes of the Middle East have captured our imaginations throughout history. Images of endless golden dunes, camel caravans, isolated desert oases, and rivers lined with palm trees have often framed written and visual representations of the region. Embedded in these portrayals is the common belief that the environment, in most places, has been deforested and desertified by centuries of misuse.

This is the first volume to critically examine culturally constructed views of the environmental history of the Middle …
