Resumen: "Latin America and the Caribbean - Atlas of our changing environment collects more than 200 images showing the main environmental issues in the region. More than a book of maps, this publication is the first effort to analyze, with the combined use of spectacular satellite images and scientific data, the transformation that the regional environmental is experiencing. The images collected here show the diversity of habitats, ecosystems, species and landscapes of the region. On the other hand, they also show that this natural and human wealth is under pressure due to the dominant economic development models that have generated growth but have produced significant social and environmental changes. This Atlas is an indispensable tool to think about future actions and public policies necessary for achieving a more sustainable development for the region."--P. [4]
