- Title
Ecological impacts of traffication.
- Authors
Vegvári, Zsolt
- Abstract
"Traffication: How cars destroy nature & what we can do about it" by Donald P.F. and "A clouded leopard in the middle of the road: New thinking about roads, people, and wildlife" by D. Jones are two books that highlight the negative impacts of road networks on nature and human welfare. The books provide evidence-based analysis and practical solutions to mitigate the effects of road traffic. They emphasize the neglected topic of road ecology and its detrimental effects on biodiversity and human health. The books also discuss the ecological consequences of roadkill, the role of roads as barriers and facilitators for species movement, and the pollution generated by traffic. The authors suggest engineering solutions, legislation, and conservation-minded responses to address the issue of traffication.
