Book Synopsis Prevención de riesgos laborales y ambientales en trabajos de extinción de incendios forestales by : Gregorio Pérez Borrego
Download or read book Prevención de riesgos laborales y ambientales en trabajos de extinción de incendios forestales written by Gregorio Pérez Borrego and published by Tecnos Editorial S A. This book was released on 2007 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro está dedicado a la prevención de riesgos laborales y ambientales en trabajos de extinción de incendios forestales desde una perspectiva interdisciplinar. Y es éste su principal mérito, pues hasta ahora aludir a los incendios forestales suponía priorizar la extinción del fuego antes que la seguridad de los combatientes y de los trabajadores de medios aéreos. En esta obra se dan encuentro importantes profesionales de diferentes sectores de actividad que han encaminado sus conocimientos a los aspectos problemáticos que la prevención de riesgos laborales tiene en sus diferentes vertientes. así encontramos juristas de diferentes especialidades (penal, contencioso-administrativa y, como no, laboral), para analizar las cuestiones que la normativa de prevención de riesgos laborales tiene en su aplicación a la extinción de incendios forestales y la protección de la salud y seguridad que en ella intervienen. a los que se unen profesionales especializados en biología, medicina, química, forestales, bomberos y profesionales de otros sectores, como los pilotos de medios aéreos que cumplen una importante labor de traslado de los combatientes al lugar donde se desarrolla el fuego. En el trabajo no se olvida analizar la conexión en la protección de riesgos laborales y de riesgos ambientales, pero dejando claro que la prioridad es la salud y seguridad de las personas que intervienen en la extinción. Así pues esta edición constituye un material indispensable para todos aquellos que se dedican a labores de extinción de incendios forestales, sean combatientes, medios aéreos o personas responsables de la prevención de riesgos laborales en las empresas y administraciones públicas competentes.
Download or read book Forest Fires written by Eduard Plana Bach and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los incendios forestales son una de las principales perturbaciones naturales que afectan a los bosques de todo el mundo. En diversos países y regiones como en el Mediterráneo es la afectación más relevante sobre la cubierta forestal arbolada, que se ve reducida temporalmente (la recuperación puede tardar décadas) incluso de forma irreversible. A pesar de los grandes esfuerzos que se realizan en prevención y extinción, de forma recurrente se dan episodios de grandes incendios forestales que a menudo interaccionan con los asentamientos e infraestructuras urbanas poniendo en peligro a la población. ¿Cuáles son las razones de esta aparente contradicción? ¿Son los incendios incontrolables? Esta publicación, a través de cinco apartados, pretende explicar de forma práctica y divulgativa el complejo fenómeno de los incendios forestales y ofrecer una imagen precisa y actualizada de los retos actuales a los que se enfrenta la gestión del riesgo. A su vez, recoge ecomendaciones para facilitar el tratamiento informativo de los incendios con el objetivo de promover una mejor comprensión del fenómeno así como avanzar hacia una cultura del riesgo que permita reducir el peligro y la vulnerabilidad del territorio.
Book Synopsis The North American Mosaic by : Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat
Download or read book The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Download or read book Mahatma Gandhi written by Dennis Dalton and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-21 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dennis Dalton's classic account of Gandhi's political and intellectual development focuses on the leader's two signal triumphs: the civil disobedience movement (or salt satyagraha) of 1930 and the Calcutta fast of 1947. Dalton clearly demonstrates how Gandhi's lifelong career in national politics gave him the opportunity to develop and refine his ideals. He then concludes with a comparison of Gandhi's methods and the strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, drawing a fascinating juxtaposition that enriches the biography of all three figures and asserts Gandhi's relevance to the study of race and political leadership in America. Dalton situates Gandhi within the "clash of civilizations" debate, identifying the implications of his work on continuing nonviolent protests. He also extensively reviews Gandhian studies and adds a detailed chronology of events in Gandhi's life.

Book Synopsis Fresh Tracks in the Forest: Assessing Incipient Payments for Environmental Services Initiatives in Bolivia by : Nina Robertson
Download or read book Fresh Tracks in the Forest: Assessing Incipient Payments for Environmental Services Initiatives in Bolivia written by Nina Robertson and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Payments for Environmental Services (PES) are being considered worldwide with great interest and expectation. Proposals to create agreements in which beneficiaries of environmental services pay landowners directly for the provision or protection of these services are innovative and promising. But what real PES experiences are actually out there? This work assesses a range of PES or PES-type experiences in one country, Bolivia, in the fields of carbon sequestration, protection of watershed services, biodiversity and aesthetic landscape values. The report concludes that while none of the generally young initiatives adhere fully to the principle of PES as developed in the theoretical literature, many experiment with some of the relevant PES mechanisms. Protection of watersheds and landscape values are the most common types, though the implementing intermediaries often have underlying biodiversity-protection goals. Main obstacles to PES implementation include ideological resistance against the PES concept, the difficulty of building trust between buyers and sellers, and limited willingness to pay on behalf of service users. During their relatively short lifetime, basically all initiatives had been successful in making service sellers (PES recipients) better off in economic terms, while the effectiveness in achieving environmental objectives and securing positive social impacts so far remained more variable. In some cases, redesigning these initiatives to bring them closer to the full PES principles could also enable them to more effectively achieve positive environmental and livelihood outcomes.

Book Synopsis How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease by : United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General
Download or read book How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease written by United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.
