Revista científica Galego-Lusófona de Educación Ambiental que neste caso comprende os números dos meses de xullo-decembro 2008. Este número é un monográfico sobre os usos de moitos dos espazos forestais que teñen un necesario uso social, científico e educativo: os parques periurbanos, xardíns botánicos e áreas forestais. Estes lugares están a funcionar, non só como pulmóns verdes e para o lecer, si non tamén como lugares para construir ciencia e cidadanía democrática, espazos vivos para a divulgación científica, a investigación e a sensibilización.

"The world's urban population now exceeds the world's rural population. What does this mean for the state of our cities, given the strain this global demographic shift is placing upon current urban infrastructure?
Following on from previous State of the World's Cities reports, this edition uses the framework of 'The Urban Divide' to analyse the complex social, political, economic and cultural dynamics of urban environments. "

Este libro é un compendio e unha escolma dunha obra que está contida en varios libros publicados, pero sobre todo dispersa nunha chea de artigos en diversos diarios, dos que hai aquí citas. O libro contén varias lecturas da obra de Castroviejo,  crónicas sobre algúns dos grandes espazos naturais e as paisaxes galegas, como os Ancares, as Cíes, as nosas noutrora abondosas e variadas brañas ou o camiño do Miño na busca do mar.

This Guide to Municipal Finance describes the current issues in municipal finance and the ways in which local governments finance services and infrastructure. It sets out a basic economic framework that is used to evaluate the different aspects of municipal finance and that can be used by readers to evaluate other options. The Guide emphasizes that responsible, accountable, and efficient local governments need to raise their own revenues as much possible, adhere to an open and visible municipal budgetary process, and engage in transparent and prudent financial management.

Decision-makers who guide urban development need the most reliable and current information possible upon which to act. Unfortunately a good deal of information – some contradictory, not all trustworthy – is in circulation regarding climate change and its potential effects upon cities. It is not always clear what represents the scientific consensus.
