Exploring the changing significance of nature in daily life, this text demonstrates that nature is irreducibly contested and embedded in highly diverse and ambivalent social practices. The book emphasizes that people's understandings and attitudes to nature are often ambivalent and there are no simple ways of prevailing upon them to "save the environment". The authors show that while environmental tasks permeate everyday life, people hugely mistrust states and corporations to safeguard the planet.
