Rand McNally Easy to Read: North Carolina State Folded Map
Lunar
The first book to combine exquisite cartographical charts of the Moon with a thorough exploration of the Moon's role in popular culture, science, and myth. President John F. Kennedy's rousing "We will go to the Moon" speech in 1961 before the US Congress catalyzed the celebrated Apollo program, spurring the US Geological Survey's scientists to map the Moon. Over the next eleven years a team of twenty-two, including a dozen illustrator-cartographers, created forty-four charts that forever changed the path of space exploration. For the first time, each of those beautifully hand-drawn, colorful charts is presented together in one stunning book. In Lunar, National Air and Space Museum curator Matthew Shindell's expert commentary accompanies each chart, along with the key geological characteristics and interpretations that were set out in the original Geologic Atlas of the Moon. Interwoven throughout the book are contributions from scholars devoted to studying the multifaceted significance of the Moon to humankind around the world. Traveling from the Stone Age to the present day, they explore a wide range of topics: the prehistoric lunar calendar; the role of the Moon in creation myths of Ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome; the role of the Moon in astrology; the importance of the Moon in establishing an Earth-centered solar system; the association of the Moon with madness and the menstrual cycle; how the Moon governs the tides; and the use of the Moon in surrealist art. Combining a thoughtful retelling of the Moon's cultural associations throughout history with the beautifully illustrated and scientifically accurate charting of its surface, Lunar is a stunning celebration of the Moon in all its guises.

Impacts of Tourism on Joshua Tree National Park. Economic Trends and Recommendations
Seminar paper from the year 2023 in the subject Tourism, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Wernigerode (International Tourism Studies), language: English, abstract: The primary objective of this study is to investigate the impact of tourism on Joshua Tree National Park. The study addresses questions such as the recent developments in tourism, its economic impact on the region, the most affected economic sectors, and how these impacts influence the local population. The work concludes with recommendations for politics, management, and the local population. Joshua Tree National Park holds historical, cultural, and ecological significance. Despite global challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic, it remained the second most visited national park in California, underlining its importance. Situated east of Palm Springs, it is a unique blend of the Mojave and Colorado Deserts, offering over 32 hiking trails and diverse flora covering approximately 85% of roadless wilderness. The park's popularity surged post-World War II during the economic boom, transforming it into a prominent recreational destination. It was declared a national monument in the 1950s, attracting notable figures and becoming a hub for spiritual and cultural rejuvenation. The trend continued, leading to its designation as a national park in 1994.

Sustainable Tourism Development
Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2014 in the subject Tourism - Miscellaneous, language: English, abstract: Tourism is making much advancement with the deregulation of the airline industry, coupled with technological advancement and attitudinal changes of people. Consequently, more tourism destinations are being promoted globally for socio-economic development through the revenue generated by it. The tag of UNESCO-enlisted WHS is used as a powerful instrument for tourism campaigns. Nevertheless, the WHS belongs to all the peoples of the world, irrespective of the territory on which they are located. All those sites have become assets for the tourism industry in many countries. On the one hand, tourism provides financial support to preserve these sites. On the other hand, uncontrolled tourism practices cause severe socio-cultural impacts by compromising its OUV. Therefore, a balance between tourism development and protection of WHS must be ensured by evolving a model to promote and sustain tourism in the destination Mahabalipuram. Hoteliers have utterly failed in the duty of sharing resources for protection of ecology and environment. However, different categories of accommodation operators are driven towards maximizing profits without having concern for sustainable tourism development. Majority of hoteliers are more tourists centric without adhering to the environmental management practices directly leading to depletion of resources. Thus, questions for the sustainability of Mahabalipuram as tourism destination need to be answered with proper justification. In order to find practical solutions for sustainable tourism development, perceptions of residents and tourists have been studied to guide planners to implement the principles of sustainable tourism. An in-depth study with the following objectives has revealed several hidden obstructions for the development of tourism in a sustainable manner.

Ecovillages as Destinations. Potential of Educational Tourism for Coping with Climate-Anxiety
Master's Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Tourism - Miscellaneous, grade: Pass, Uppsala University, course: Sustainable Destination Development, language: English, abstract: This paper argues that ecovillages are places where students can learn hands-on techniques to reduce their climate-anxiety and conclude by suggesting that HEI should initiate cooperation with local ecovillages to improve the problem of climate-anxiety among students. Climate-anxiety is a growing mental health issue among the public and particularly among students in sustainability-related fields in Higher Education Institutions (HEI). The research field of climate-anxiety has emerged after 2007, and it also relates to other increasingly relevant mental health responses to environmental destruction, such as eco-anxiety. This study examines how HEI can better address climate-anxiety. Specifically, it investigates whether non-formal actors like ecovillages can help students to cope with climate-anxiety. In this context, climate-anxiety is party attributed to the way HEI teach about it. While education on climate change overly addresses cognitive learning, social and emotional learning are neglected. Ecovillages are increasingly recognising their role in Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) and, through novel pedagogical approaches, can balance the shortcomings of HEI. Exploring the capacity of ecovillages for ESD and coping with climate-anxiety, the study includes five case studies of distinct ecovillages on three continents. The aim is on how educational tourism to ecovillages can help students to cope with climate-anxiety. This study found that lecturers do not sufficiently address climate-anxiety in HEI or Student Mental Health Services (SMHS) in Sweden.
