Tree Plantation Extractivism in Chile
This book examines how extractivism transforms territories and affects the well-being of rural people, drawing on in-depth fieldwork conducted on tree plantations in Chile.The book argues that pine and eucalyptus monoculture plantations in southern Chile are a form of extractivism representing a mode of nature appropriation that captures large amounts of natural resources to produce wooden-based raw materials with little processing and an export-oriented focus. The book discusses the nexus of extractivism, territorial transformations, well-being, and emerging resistances using a participatory action research methodological approach in the Region of Los R穩os, southern Chile. The findings show how the configuration of an extractivist logging enclave generated a substantial and irrevocable reordering of human-nature relations, resulting in the territorial and ontological occupation of rural places that disrupted the fundamental human needs of peasants and indigenous people. The book maintains that Chile's green growth development approach does not challenge the consolidated tree plantation enclave controlled by large multinationals. Instead, green growth legitimises the extractivist logic. The book draws parallels with other countries and regions to contribute to wider debates surrounding these topics.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of the extractive industries, development studies, political ecology, and natural resource governance.

Conserving Nature in Greater Yellowstone
The story of how Yellowstone, established in 1872 as the world's first national park, has become synonymous with nature conservation--and an examination of today's challenges to preserve the region's wilderness heritage. For more than 150 years, the Yellowstone region--now widely known as the twenty-three million acre Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem--has played a prominent role in the United States' nature conservation agenda. In this book, Robert B. Keiter, an award-winning public land law and policy expert, traces the evolution and application of fundamental ecological conservation concepts tied to Yellowstone. Keiter's book highlights both the conservation successes and controversies connected with this storied region, which has been enmeshed in change. During the 1980s, leaders in Yellowstone embraced ecosystem management concepts to recover a dwindling grizzly bear population and to support wolf reintroduction. Since then, management policies in the region's two national parks and adjacent national forests have largely followed suit, prioritizing ecosystem-level conservation over industrial activity. Groundbreaking efforts are currently afoot to protect elk, deer, and pronghorn migration corridors and to maintain the park's bison population, effectively expanding the scope of regional conservation initiatives. But in the face of explosive human population growth and related development pressures, new efforts must also account for the region's privately owned lands along with accelerating recreational activities that present quite different problems. Indeed, the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem--extending across three states and twenty counties and embracing more than sixteen million acres of federal land as well as private and tribal lands --can only be characterized as a complex, jurisdictionally fragmented landscape. As Keiter makes clear, the quest for common ground among federal land managers, state officials, local communities, conservationists, ranchers, Indigenous tribes, and others is a vital, enduring task. Exploring both notable conservation accomplishments and the ongoing challenges confronting this special place, Keiter's book explains the many forces--scientific, political, economic, legal, cultural, climatic, and more--at work driving controversy and change across the region. But more than this, Conserving Nature in Greater Yellowstone shows us that the lessons gleaned from Yellowstone's expansive nature conservation efforts are profoundly important for both the country and the world.

The Great River
The Mississippi River lies at the heart of America, an undeniable life force that is intertwined with the nation's culture and history. Its watershed spans almost half the country, Mark Twain's travels on the river inspired our first national literature, and jazz and blues were born in its floodplains and carried upstream.In this landmark work of natural history, Boyce Upholt tells the epic story of this wild and unruly river, and the centuries of efforts to control it. Over thousands of years, the Mississippi watershed was home to millions of Indigenous people who regarded "the great river" with awe and respect, adorning its banks with astonishing spiritual earthworks. The river was ever-changing, and Indigenous tribes embraced and even depended on its regular flooding. But the expanse of the watershed and the rich soils of its floodplain lured European settlers and American pioneers, who had a different vision: the river was a foe to conquer.Centuries of human attempts to own, contain, and rework the Mississippi River, from Thomas Jefferson's expansionist land hunger through today's era of environmental concern, have now transformed its landscape. Upholt reveals how an ambitious and sometimes contentious program of engineering--government-built levees, jetties, dikes, and dams--has not only damaged once-vibrant ecosystems but may not work much longer. Carrying readers along the river's last remaining backchannels, he explores how scientists are now hoping to restore what has been lost.Rich and powerful, The Great River delivers a startling account of what happens when we try to fight against nature instead of acknowledging and embracing its power--a lesson that is all too relevant in our rapidly changing world.

Delving into the Earth璽€(TM)s structure, composition, and history, Hitchcock explores topics such as rock formations, stratification, and the forces that shape our planet. The book also examines the fascinating world of paleontology, tracing the evolution of life through fossil records and geological eras. This classic work provides insights into earthquakes, volcanoes, and other dynamic processes, presenting a detailed picture of the Earth璽€(TM)s geological features. A valuable resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in understanding the science behind our planet璽€(TM)s formation and ongoing transformation.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

The Adirondack Graphite Deposits
The Adirondack Graphite Deposits, originally published in 1918, is a detailed examination of the graphite deposits found in the Adirondack region. Authored by Harold Lattimore Alling, this work provides a comprehensive overview of the geological formations, mineralogical characteristics, and economic potential of these deposits. Alling璽€(TM)s study delves into the history of graphite mining in the area, the methods employed for extraction, and the various uses of graphite. The book offers valuable insights into the industrial and economic significance of graphite during the early 20th century and remains relevant for those interested in the geological history of the Adirondacks and the evolution of mining techniques.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
