Our Five Seasons

2025/08/12 出版

From the Fields, Sounding the Alarm of Climate Change Our Five Seasons offers powerful, first-hand accounts of what is happening to our food system in the face of climate change. Drawing from the lived knowledge of farmworkers-those on the front lines of our changing environment--this book reveals the dramatic and subtle changes that are impacting U.S. agriculture and the reality of what it is like to live and work under these conditions. While the challenges facing our food system may seem distant from our everyday lives, in truth, the dangers that threaten farmworker lives and wellbeing impact all of us. The struggles with Cold, Heat, Storms, Fires, and Pesticides that farmworkers face are not just consequences of global warming but of a system that is becoming increasingly unstable, unsafe, and unhealthy. Through powerful storytelling and first-hand accounts, Our Five Seasons gives voice to those who have been ignored and relates the biggest threats to U.S. agriculture in farmworkers' own words. It shares wisdom shaped by heatwaves, floods, fires, and pesticide drift --and by the deep connection farmworkers have to the land they work. You'll hear from seasoned pickers, irrigators, and organizers who are sounding the alarm on our food system from the fields.Learn about: the generations of knowledge and experience that farmworkers bring to their labor;the dangers and hardships they face at home and in the workplace;workers' innovation and adaptation to address climate threats;their warnings for consumers further down the food system;and much more. . .Our Five Seasons will shift how you understand our food system in a changing climate --not as a distant crisis, but as a daily reality already shaping lives and labor. Whether you're a policymaker seeking practical solutions, an advocate fighting for justice, or someone who simply wants to listen and learn, this book will deepen your understanding of the climate crisis from the people who know it best.From the Author: From my conversations with farmworkers across the U.S., it became clear that climate change is radically changing the conditions of agriculture and can no longer be understood in traditional terms. Our Five Seasons shifts our perceptions from winter, spring, summer, and fall to highlight the seasons that have the greatest impact on farmworker lives and our food supply. In this way, Cold, Heat, Storms, Fires, and Pesticides have become central actors in farmworker lives and labor, redefining our modern food system, and impacting all of us through the food we eat.

Lake Erie's Long Point and the Company that saved it

Petra Books 出版
2025/08/11 出版

Long Point, a wilderness in the Canadian waters of Lake Erie, attracts thousands of migrating waterfowl. In the 1800s it was becoming a home for nefarious activities including illegal logging and hunting, drunkenness and prostitution. Seeking to bring the lawlessness under control, the pre-confederation British Government parcelled off the land for auction in 1866 and a group of wealthy businessmen seeking a private duck hunting preserve established the Long Point Company. With the arrival of the Gilded Age in the 1870s, American millionaires came to dominate the membership. The area is designated a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. www.unesco.org/en/mab/long-pointPutting his curiosity and research skills to use, Stephen Selk has documented the symbiotic relationship that has proven beneficial to both Long Point and the shareholders.

Remediation Strategies for Soil and Water

Mdpi AG 出版
2025/08/11 出版

With the rapid development of industries worldwide, soil and water pollution have accelerated in recent decades. The pollutants, including heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, antibiotics, and microplastics, in soil and water pose severe environmental problems, presenting serious risks to human health and the ecological system. Approximately 4 billion people, representing around half of the world's population, experience severe physical water scarcity for at least part of the year. Hence, several techniques have been developed for the remediation of contaminated soil and water, including adsorption, membrane separation, advanced oxidation, ion exchange, electrochemical treatment, microbial degradation, and phytoremediation. Considering the ongoing issue of pollution and emerging pollutants, remediation strategies for soil and water should be further optimized to focus on developing functional materials, improving remediation efficiency, and enhancing integrated remediation processes. This Reprint, entitled "Remediation Strategies for Soil and Water," features six research articles and three review papers, each addressing critical aspects of remediation processes for soil and water.

Tree Day

Meg,Lowman  著
University 出版
2025/08/09 出版

An hourly guide that spotlights twenty-four trees as they root, flower, and host diverse forest life. In this short book, treetop explorer Meg Lowman guides us through a global forest. Each chapter of Tree Day introduces a single tree during a single hour, highlighting twenty-four species from around the world. In the dark of Yemen's night, it is too early to see the red sap from which the dragon's blood tree gets its name. But if we watch closely, we will see nocturnal geckos carry the trees' pollen in their snouts. Later, in the Pacific Northwest, we climb the world's tallest species, the coastal redwood. The morning fog is a reminder that redwoods absorb water through their roots and canopies, helping them survive such heights. The sun is already low in the sky on an autumn afternoon. Given the darkness of this New England forest, the sugar maple's leaves have stopped producing chlorophyll that converts light into energy--and green gives way to vivid crimson foliage. After many hours of boiling, the maple sap makes delicious maple syrup. As the sun sets in Mexico, we observe the origin of another treat, chocolate. The cocoa tree's flowers sprout along its trunk and branches, allowing easy access for tiny insects like midges that pollinate the tree and start the process of making delicious food for humans, monkeys, bats, and squirrels. By the end of our tree day, we will understand that trees are the silent caretakers of our planet, providing us with medicines, foods, machinery for making fresh water and oxygen, and more. For each hour, celebrated artist Thibaud H矇rem has depicted these trees with gorgeous pen and ink illustrations. Working together to narrate and illustrate these unique moments in time, Lowman and H矇rem have created an engaging read that is a perfect way to spend an hour or two--and a true gift for anyone who has ever looked up at a tree in wonder.

The objective of the Air Force's compliance through pollution prevention (CTP2) program is to reduce overall environmental compliance (EC) cost and risk (compliance burden) associated with maintaining compliance at an installation through increased pollution prevention (P2) efforts. However, no quantifiable evidence has been produced that suggests P2 projects are actually reducing compliance burden. Therefore, this research attempts to determine if projects categorized as P2 truly reduce compliance burden.This research demonstrated that, under the current burden calculation methodology, the compliance site inventory data should not be used to measure or track compliance burden reductions.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Verification and Comparison of Polar MM5 and AFWA MM5 Forecasts Over Alaska

Biblioscholar 出版
2025/08/08 出版

The Mesoscale Model 5th Generation (MM5) is used for operational support to Air Force missions in the Alaskan Theater. The 11th Operational Weather squadron has identified problems with the MM5 producing excessively warm surface temperature forecasts. The Polar MM5 (PMM5), developed by the Byrd Polar Research Center for the high latitude ice sheets of Antarctica and Greenland, is tested over the Alaskan domains used by the Air Force Weather Agency to determine the utility in replacing the MM5 with the PMM5. The verification of surface temperature, pressure and wind as well as upper-air temperature, geopotential height, and relative humidity of 27-hour PMM5 forecasts are compared to the MM5 forecasts to assess the differences between the models' accuracies. A grid-to-station inverse-weighted linear interpolation technique is used to compare model output to surface observation for 71 locations and to radiosonde upper-air observations for 7 locations. The results are based on 67 forecasts made over a 4-month period during the Fall-Winter of 2001.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Biblioscholar 出版
2025/08/08 出版

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was introduced on December 2, 1970 by President Richard Nixon. The agency is charged with protecting human health and the environment, by writing and enforcing regulations based on laws passed by Congress. The EPA's struggle to protect health and the environment is seen through each of its official publications. These publications outline new policies, detail problems with enforcing laws, document the need for new legislation, and describe new tactics to use to solve these issues. This collection of publications ranges from historic documents to reports released in the new millennium, and features works like: Bicycle for a Better Environment, Health Effects of Increasing Sulfur Oxides Emissions Draft, and Women and Environmental Health.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Here Comes the Sun

W. W. Norton 出版
2025/08/08 出版

Our climate, and our democracy, are melting down. But Bill McKibben, one of the first to sound the alarm about the climate crisis, insists the moment is also full of possibility. Energy from the sun and wind is suddenly the cheapest power on the planet and growing faster than any energy source in history--if we can keep accelerating the pace, we have a chance. Here Comes the Sun tells the story of the sudden spike in power from the sun and wind--and the desperate fight of the fossil fuel industry and their politicians to hold this new power at bay. From the everyday citizens who installed solar panels equal to a third of Pakistan's electric grid in a year to the world's sixth-largest economy--California--nearly halving its use of natural gas in the last two years, Bill McKibben traces the arrival of plentiful, inexpensive solar energy. And he shows how solar power is more than just a path out of the climate crisis: it is a chance to reorder the world on saner and more humane grounds. You can't hoard solar energy or hold it in reserves--it's available to all.There's no guarantee we can make this change in time, but there is a hope--in McKibben's eyes, our best hope for a new civilization: one that looks up to the sun, every day, as the star that fuels our world.

Territorial Space and Transportation Coordinated Development

Gaoru,Zhu  著
Mdpi AG 出版
2025/08/07 出版

Territorial space and transportation are closely related to each other. The interaction mechanism and coordinated development of the two are important research directions of academic concern. On the one hand, transportation networks are the skeleton of national and regional development, and the comprehensive transportation system provided by highways, railways, aviation, and water promotes the development of territorial space. On the other hand, the pressure of transportation infrastructure and transportation activities on the protection of territorial space such as ecological and agricultural land is also increasing. The question of how to coordinate the relationship between development and protection, use the network effect of transportation to empower regional development, and improve the environmental impact of the transportation field, thereby enhancing regional sustainability, is a key scientific issue that needs to be studied urgently. In order to promote research in the field of territorial space and transportation coordination, as well as the deep integration of production, study, and research, we have organized a Special Issue titled "Coordinated development of territorial space and transportation" in Land. This reprint publication includes 16 articles, encompassing a wide range of critical topics, such as comprehensive transportation network planning, the impact of transportation on land use, the impact of land use on transportation, the interaction between transportation networks and territorial space, and territorial space development guided by transportation.

Science in Resistance

2025/08/06 出版

Scientists around the world rise up for climate and ecological justice In April 2022, hundreds of scientists rose in civil disobedience, breaking the law in more than twenty-eight countries. Risking arrest, they glued their hands to roads, blocked government and corporate buildings, and chained themselves to the White House fence. In Science in Resistance, Fernando Racimo provides a first-person account of the Scientist Rebellion, a growing international movement of researchers stepping beyond conventional roles to alert the public about the need for action in the climate emergency. Combining personal stories, interviews with frontline activists, and insights from research on direct action and academia, he explores the challenges scientists face when taking a stand for climate and social justice. Reflecting on his role as a scientist-activist, Racimo describes how he came to be involved in the movement. He also explores the many ways in which academic institutions today are complicit in climate breakdown--whether by accepting funding from and collaborating with the very industries driving it, or by discouraging scientists from speaking up. Drawing on lessons from political science, psychology, ecology, sociology, and the history of science, this inspiring book shows how we can all take a stand for climate justice, by collectively organizing for change.

Urban Regeneration

Mdpi AG 出版
2025/08/06 出版

Many aspects come into play when addressing urban regeneration issues, and various interventions are needed to ensure cities are resilient and prepared to respond to environmental, economic, and social challenges. Resilience is understood as a "cross-cutting condition" in the reorganisation of a city, as the ability to provide adaptive and timely responses to numerous challenges and adverse events. Land consumption, characterised by the expansion of artificial cover for residential, manufacturing, and infrastructure purposes, is a worrying trend globally. There is a need to monitor and formulate strategies to mitigate land consumption and safeguard ecosystem services. Only through joint actions will cities be prepared to address key land vulnerabilities exacerbated by climate change: drought and water scarcity, heat waves in urban areas, unconventional events, and hydrogeological risk. This Special Issue aims to identify contextual actions that can reduce land consumption, promote de-impermeabilization, and encourage re-naturalisation, focusing on enhancing ecosystem services in land use activities. Therefore, it focuses on understanding the contributions of ecosystem services, landscape restoration and green infrastructure for climate mitigation, and land use reduction in urban regeneration processes.

Forty Ways to Know a Tree

Joan,Maloof  著
2025/08/04 出版

Discover the incredible life of trees through forty eye-opening short essays that explore trees as miraculous, living, breathing protectors of our Earth. Environmental activist and author Joan Maloof's elegant writing turns science into storytelling. There are an estimated three trillion trees in the world, half as many as there once were. To honor and protect these vital organisms, a shift in perspective can help expand our understanding beyond simply appreciating trees' remarkable beauty to discovering the ways they are inextricably connected to our planet, our fellow species, and our spirits.Within these pages, biologist Joan Maloof offers forty distinct ways of encountering, exploring, and learning about a tree. Through engaging, impassioned essays, paired with beautiful watercolor illustrations, she invites us to get to know a tree: By its leaves, whether it is needle-leaved or broad-leaved. Leaves can also be different on an individual tree; for example, those on the lower part, called shade leaves, tend to be larger to catch what sunlight they can.Through its rings, the only sure way of telling its age. The oldest documented tree ever counted was a bristlecone with 4,500 rings.From its birds. For example, avian migration is driven by how weather affects trees, like the honey mesquite trees' yellow blooms that cue migratory birds to stop and feed on the spiders found in their blossoms.By its song, either through the many organisms living there or the wind moving through its branches and leaves. Trees sound different in winter and summer, and healthy trees sound different than sick ones. And so much more.Each profile is illustrated with a particular species, representing dozens from all around the world, which combine to create a broader canvas of tree knowledge. This book celebrates the tree itself, with its many roles and parts, as well as its invaluable services to humans and wildlife--providing food, shelter, clean air, water, and, to many, simple joy. EMBRACING TREES: Increasing awareness of climate change and the environment, as well as new research about their complexity, has brought trees into the spotlight of popular culture. For readers who loved The Hidden Life of Trees and The Serviceberry, this book is an excellent, accessible complement, with immersive storytelling and gorgeous illustrations and photographs. AUTHOR EXPERTISE: Joan Maloof is an award-winning author, environmental activist, and recognized tree expert with five previous books on the subject. She founded the Old-Growth Forest Network to preserve, protect, and promote the country's few remaining stands of old-growth forest. BEAUTIFUL, ENGAGING CONTENT: Readers will learn surprising new facts about trees, exploring their essence from birth, roots, bark, and shape to colors, fragrance, sap, and song. Sara Nunan's elegant watercolors provide an artistic and colorful addition to Maloof's beautiful text. Perfect for: Nature loversBotanistsHikers, campers, and lovers of the outdoorsScience enthusiastsGift-givers seeking beautiful nonfiction books for Mother's Day, Father's Day, Graduation, birthdays, holidays, and more

Urban Planning and Housing Market

Mdpi AG 出版
2025/08/04 出版

The interaction between urban planning and the housing market plays a key role in the context of progressing urbanization, urban population growth, and the rising demand for housing. The rational distribution of housing resources in cities (and functional urban areas) is one of the crucial priorities of urban planning. The relevant measures should align with the principles of sustainable development, as well as the rational management of space and social justice. Existing problems and social needs should be identified and resolved in order to improve the quality of life. The identification and evaluation of processes in the housing market-across the economic, social, and spatial dimensions-are essential elements of urban planning. The development of geographic information systems, along with quantitative and qualitative analytical methods, promotes an innovative approach to the evaluation of urban space, where housing resources that meet fundamental human needs play a special role. How can urban planning effectively cater to housing needs? Can urban planning improve housing affordability and housing supply? What remedial measures can be implemented to prevent spatial, social, and economic segregation in cities? How and where should new housing estates be planned? Can urban densification be reconciled with a high quality of life? This Special Issue will focus on the extent to which urban planning and management systems address the complex and dynamic trends in the housing market.

Groundwater Pollution Control and Groundwater Management

Yunhui,Zhang  著
Mdpi AG 出版
2025/08/04 出版

Groundwater, a hidden reservoir beneath the Earth's surface, is a vital lifeline for billions around the world, supporting drinking water supplies and industrial and agricultural production. As a core component of the hydrological cycle, it interacts dynamically with ecosystems, soil, and surface water. The increasing demand for freshwater as a result of population growth and climate change has intensified the need to address groundwater vulnerability. Sources of pollution such as agricultural runoff, industrial wastewater, untreated wastewater, and chemical infiltration threaten water quality by introducing heavy metals, nutrients, and pathogens, endangering human health and ecological balance. These risks have a disproportionate influence on marginalized communities, exacerbating socio-economic disparities. Anthropogenic pressures like urbanization and over-extraction further hinder the sustainability of groundwater and therefore necessitate a comprehensive management framework. Mitigation methods require the adoption of practices to reduce pollution in agriculture and industry and the promotion of public participation in management. Interdisciplinary collaboration among researchers, policymakers, and communities is essential to advance remediation strategies and sustainable governance. This Reprint combines case studies, on-site data, and successful intervention measures to elucidate contamination pathways, evaluate management efficacy, and chart conservation roadmaps. Protecting the integrity of groundwater is crucial for granting fair access to resources and combating escalating challenges to the climate and human life.

Natural Connection

Princeton 出版
2025/08/03 出版

A new pathway to a thriving future rooted in our relationships with the living world and each other Reimagining environmentalism as an act of doing and a way of being in the world and climate action as a shared goal, not an individual burden, Natural Connection draws on the legacies and ongoing resistance of marginalised communities around the globe to guide us toward a more sustainable relationship with the living world. Joycelyn Longdon defines six conceptual roots--rage, imagination, innovation, theory, healing and care--that can help us to transform environmentalism from the ground up and cultivate the natural connection so essential to creating a safe and thriving shared future. Rage is a necessary response to systems of oppression but impedes progress if it isn't transformed into action. Imagination is essential to resisting the logics of colonialism and exploitation. Theory is a means of building collective wisdom. Longdon illuminates these and other principles, practices and teachings, highlighting the voices and stories of marginalised communities who have revolutionized the landscape of environmentalism, such as the Afro-Indigenous Brazilian quilombolas who fought to defend their ancestral lands, Ken Saro-Wiwa and the Ogoni Nine of Nigeria who lost their lives in the struggle against environmental destruction by fossil fuel giants, and the women of the Indian Himalayas who sparked a mass movement of nonviolent protest against deforestation by hugging trees. Along the way, this lyrical, provocative and deeply humane book interweaves powerfully resonant ideas from writers, philosophers, environmentalists, activists and other changemakers, such as Rebecca Solnit, Poppy Okotcha, Robert Macfarlane, Katherine May and Olafur Eliasson. Rooted in the profound knowledge that we only have each other and the earth itself, Natural Connection cultivates hope in growing a better future together.

'Steve Andrews understands that the key to defending and protecting life and diversity in the Ocean is to use what you are good at to find solutions to seemingly impossible problems. The strength of an eco-system depends upon diversity and interdependence. Therefore a successful movement is defined by diversity and interdependence within it. By harnessing our passions to the virtues of courage and imagination we can find impossible solutions to seemingly impossible problems. Saving Mother Ocean is inspiring, informative and a call to action by all of us to save the Mother to all of us - the Ocean.' Captain Paul Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation SocietyWe've all seen the news of dead and dying whales, and the alarming amounts of plastic pollution washing up on beaches or floating on the tides. The oceans are in very great danger for many reasons, and it is not just plastic waste, which is bad enough. Overfishing, acidification, coral bleaching, nuclear waste, seabed mining, military testing, and climate change, are taking a very heavy toll on marine creatures of all types, from tiny plankton to the massive whales. The eponymous Dead Zones are aptly named. Many marine creatures are in danger of extinction. Life on this planet depends on healthy oceans. We depend on healthy oceans. This book takes a look at the threats to marine life, and what is being done to save the seas. It is a call to action to save Mother Ocean. The author explains how he became personally motivated to do what he could. As a singer and songwriter he wrote songs and came up with the idea for Ocean Aid concerts. Now he has written the book you are holding. He hopes to inspire you to think about what you can do. We all need to help save the seas.
