    Urban Environmental Studies is an interdisciplinary field that explores the complex relationship between cities, their natural environments, and the sustainability of both. As the world becomes increasingly urbanized, understanding the environmental challenges and opportunities within urban settings is crucial for creating sustainable, livable cities. This chapter introduces the core principles of Urban Environmental Studies, outlining the essential role of urban ecosystems and their impact on the broader global environment. 
    Cities, as centers of human activity, consumption, and growth, have a significant effect on the planet's natural systems. The rapid expansion of urban areas, particularly in developing regions, has led to heightened concerns regarding air quality, water management, waste disposal, and biodiversity loss. These environmental issues are exacerbated by factors such as climate change, resource depletion, and social inequality, highlighting the need for integrated approaches to managing urban environments. 
    Urban Environmental Studies seeks to address these challenges by examining the ways in which cities interact with their surrounding ecosystems. It focuses on how urban areas can mitigate their environmental footprint while enhancing the quality of life for their inhabitants. Central to this field is the concept of sustainability—an approach that promotes the careful use of resources to meet the needs of present and future generations. This includes developing green infrastructure, managing natural resources efficiently, and creating green spaces that benefit both people and the environment.

    The dramatic story of an ingenious man who explained nature and created a country. 
     
     
     
    Benjamin Franklin was one of the preeminent scientists of his time. Driven by curiosity, he conducted cutting-edge research on electricity, heat, ocean currents, weather patterns, chemical bonds, and plants. But today, Franklin is remembered more for his political prowess and diplomatic achievements than his scientific creativity. 
     
     
     
    In this incisive and rich account of Benjamin Franklin's life and career, Richard Munson recovers this vital part of Franklin's story, reveals his modern relevance, and offers a compelling portrait of a shrewd experimenter, clever innovator, and visionary physicist whose fame opened doors to negotiate French support and funding for American independence. 
     
     
     
    Munson's riveting narrative explores how science underpins Franklin's entire story—from tradesman to inventor to nation-founder—and argues that Franklin's political life cannot be understood without giving proper credit to his scientific accomplishments.
