In the Face of Climate Change
Community resilience and community sustainability have increasingly become popular topics of research separately and together. The aim of this article is to elucidate the perceived interconnections between community sustainability and community resilience using Dayton, OH, as a case study. This article largely examines the perceived interconnections between climate change mitigation and climate adaptation initiatives within sustainability and the…
Reconceptualizing natural capital and sustainable use of natural capital through Aldo Leopold's land ethic
This article reconceptualizes natural capital. It categorizes natural capital into renewable natural capital and structural natural capital, and argues for exclusion of nonrenewable natural capital (such as coal and oil) from consideration as a natural capital. It presents 10 guiding principles for sustainable use of natural capital. Both tasks of reconceptualizing natural capital and identifying guiding principles for sustainable use of natural …
Exploration of unconventional oil and gas (Uoag) development on farmland
The Goldilocks view
A tale of two rural cities
The Community Capitals Framework was used in this study to understand, compare, and contrast how an oil boom is changing the nature, character, and context of two rural cities, “Minor” and “Major.” Minor and Major are the county seats of two adjacent counties located in the heart of the North Dakota Bakken region. This study examines the changes and impacts caused by the oil boom through the lens of community capitals. The study investigates the …
Life in the Goldilocks Zone
Community impacts from oil development in the Bakken Shale, located in the north central region of the United States, have been well reported in the press, including highly publicized accounts of social disruption. Less examined are communities on the periphery of such development, which experience related impacts unique to their location. Twenty-eight long-time residents from three Bakken periphery communities were interviewed to evaluate social…
Housing for essential service workers during an oil boom
Attitudes toward shale oil development in western North Dakota
Socioeconomic System of the Oil Boom and Rural Community Development in Western North Dakota
An oil boom is a complex social and economic phenomenon. The socioeconomic system presented in this article represents a novel effort to explicate boom impacts and changes, within a systems framework, at the community level to enhance community planning and development efforts. Most boomtown studies focus on longitudinal changes of a boom-bust-recovery cycle or social-disruption-based approaches. This article is an effort to demonstrate that long…
