Автор: Nuria Torrescano- Valle; Gerald A. Islebe; Priyada Название: The Holocene and Anthropocene Environmental History of Mexico ISBN: 3030317188 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783030317188 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 139750.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book provides essential information on Mexico’s Holocene and Anthropocene climate and vegetation history. Considering the geography of Mexico – which is home to a variety of climatic and environmental conditions, from desert and tropical to high mountain climates – this book focuses on its postglacial paleoecology and paleoclimatology. Further, it analyses human intervention since the middle Holocene as a major agent of environmental change. Offering a valuable tool for understanding past climate change and its relationship with present climate change, the book is a must-read for botanists, ecologists, palaeontologists and graduate students in related fields.

This book is a comprehensive account of all significant energy sources, evaluated according to their capacity, reliability, cost, safety and effects on the environment. Non-renewable sources (for example, coal, oil, gas and nuclear fuel) together with renewable sources like wood, hydro, biomass, wind, solar, geothermal, ocean thermal, and tidal; are considered. Also, nuclear radiations and the disposal of nuclear waste and the future of nuclear power are assessed, as well as pollution and acid rain, the greenhouse effects and climate change. Its social, political and moral problems are discussed, with a special mention of the opposition to nuclear power.

Автор: Faraha Nawaz Название: Environment, ClimateChange and Green Entrepreneurship: A Journey Towards Sustainable Development ISBN: 1536191868 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781536191868 Издательство: Nova Science Рейтинг: Цена: 77080.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Climate change refers to a substantial change in temperature, precipitation, or wind lasting for a long period of time, usually several years. The consequences of climate change are an increase in global air and ocean temperature on average, widespread melting of snow and rising global average sea level. The Bay of Bengals afunnel shape combined with its connection with the rivers of Bangladesh creates a constant hazardous situation for five coastal areas of the country. The high frequency of natural disasters also hinders the countrys ability to achieve its desired rates of economic growth. Climate Change issues have traditionally broken into two basic categories: climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation. Climate change mitigation includes human interventions to reduce drivers of climate systems and climate change adaptation includes managing natural and human systems in response to variations in the climate and their effects. Efforts to mitigate climate change have focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) into the atmosphere which is a complex journey towards sustainabledevelopment. Mitigation strategies include adopting renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, biofuels, and the sustainable use of land and forests. This book argues green entrepreneurship is one of the most effective strategies for greenhouse gas emissions reduction. This book discusses the linkages between climate change mitigation and green entrepreneurship, describing the challenges and possibilities of adopting green entrepreneurship in Bangladesh.

Описание: In the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, legions of English citizens headed north. Why and how did Scotland, once avoided by travelers, become a popular site for English tourists? Katherine Haldane Grenier uses published and unpublished travel accounts, guidebooks, and the popular press to examine the evolution of a false view of Scotland as untouched by nineteenth-century transformations.

Описание: This interdisciplinary collection of eleven original essays focuses on the environmental impact of transportation, which is, as Tatiana Prorokova-Konrad and Brian C. Black note in their introduction, responsible for 26 percent of global energy use. Approaching mobility not solely as a material, logistical question but as a phenomenon mediated by culture, the book interrogates popular assumptions deeply entangled with energy choices. Rethinking transportation, the contributors argue, necessarily involves fundamental understandings of consumption, freedom, and self.The essays in Transportation and the Culture of Climate Change cover an eclectic range of subject matter, from the association of bicycles with childhood to the songs of Bruce Springsteen, but are united in a central conviction: "Transport is a considerable part of our culture that is as hard to transform as it is for us to stop using fossil fuels - but we do not have an alternative.
