A rigorous work of environmental and social scholarship, The Impact of Environmental Degradation on People presents a compelling examination of how the destruction of natural ecosystems directly undermines the lives, livelihoods, and well-being of vulnerable communities. Authored by Philip Viegas and Geeta Menon, the work chronicles the human cost of ecological decline across a range of contexts, drawing on field research and case studies to ground its arguments in lived reality. With an academic yet accessible tone, it illustrates the intricate connections between environmental health and social justice, arguing that degradation is never merely an ecological issue but a deeply human one. The authors detail how marginalized populations—particularly those dependent on natural resources for survival—bear a disproportionate burden when forests, water systems, and land are compromised. This essential volume makes a powerful case for integrating human rights perspectives into environmental policy and advocacy.
