| Resumen: |
Este volumen ofrece una colección única de contribuciones que abordan tanto el lado de "demasiado" como el de "muy poco" de la historia del nitrógeno. Partiendo de los análisis iniciados en la 6ª Conferencia Internacional sobre el Nitrógeno, celebrada en Kampala, el libro explora la idea de "nitrógeno suficiente": suficiente para la producción sostenible de alimentos, pero no tanto como para provocar una contaminación insostenible y problemas climáticos. La gama de amenazas del nitrógeno examinadas, las soluciones evaluadas y los análisis cientÃfico-polÃticos presentados aquà han proporcionado la base para acordar la ''Declaración de acción de Kampala sobre el nitrógeno en Ãfrica y a nivel mundial'', como se informa en este volumen. La humanidad hoy enfrenta desafÃos sin precedentes: ¿Cómo alimentar a una población en crecimiento? ¿Cómo reducir la contaminación del aire, la contaminación del agua y el cambio climático? ¿Cómo manejar las diferencias regionales en una era de creciente globalización? Estas preguntas están en el centro de este volumen editado que examina la naturaleza multidimensional del desafÃo global del nitrógeno. Si bien los humanos han alterado enormemente el ciclo del nitrógeno, las consecuencias se han polarizado. Algunas regiones tienen demasiado nitrógeno, lo que se asocia con la contaminación y el despilfarro de un recurso valioso, mientras que otras regiones tienen muy poco nitrógeno, lo que limita la producción de alimentos y agota las reservas de nutrientes del suelo. En conjunto, las contribuciones de este libro ahora informan las acciones de la Iniciativa Internacional del Nitrógeno (INI) en colaboración con el Programa de las Naciones Unidas para el Medio Ambiente y otros para establecer el Sistema Internacional de Gestión del Nitrógeno (INMS). Un resultado clave ha sido catalizar el desarrollo de la primera Resolución sobre Gestión Sostenible del Nitrógeno, adoptada por la cuarta Asamblea de las Naciones Unidas para el Medio Ambiente (UNEA/EA.4/Res.14). El trabajo está escrito para investigadores, responsables polÃticos y todos aquellos interesados ​​en ver cómo la gestión sostenible del nitrógeno puede contribuir a cumplir muchos de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de las Naciones Unidas. . |

| Summary : |
This volume provides a unique collection of contributions addressing both the 'too much' and 'too little' sides of the nitrogen story. Building on analyses started at the 6th International Nitrogen Conference, Kampala, the book explores the idea of 'just enough nitrogen': sufficient for sustainable food production, but not so much as to lead to unsustainable pollution and climate problems. The range of nitrogen threats examined, solutions evaluated and science-policy analyses presented here has provided the foundation to agree the 'Kampala Statement-for-Action on Nitrogen in Africa and Globally,' as reported in this volume. Humanity today faces unprecedented challenges: How to feed a growing population? How to reduce air pollution, water pollution and climate change? How to handle regional differences in an era of increasing globalization? These questions are at the heart of this edited volume which examines the multi-dimensional nature of the global nitrogen challenge. While humanshave massively altered the nitrogen cycle, the consequences have become polarized. Some regions have too much nitrogen, associated with pollution and wasteful use of a valuable resource, while other regions have too little nitrogen, leading to constraints on food production and depletion of soil nutrient stocks. Together, the contributions in this book are now informing actions by the International Nitrogen Initiative (INI) in working with the United Nations Environment Programme and others to establish the International Nitrogen Management System (INMS). A key outcome has been to catalyse development of the first Resolution on Sustainable Nitrogen Management, as adopted by the fourth UN Environment Assembly (UNEA/EA.4/Res.14). The work is written for researchers and policy makers and all those interested in seeing how sustainable nitrogen management can contribute to meeting many of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. . |
