Book Synopsis American Earth: Environmental Writing Since Thoreau (LOA #182) by : Bill McKibben
Download or read book American Earth: Environmental Writing Since Thoreau (LOA #182) written by Bill McKibben and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2008-04-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As America and the world grapple with the consequences of global environmental change, writer and activist Bill McKibben offers this unprecedented, provocative, and timely anthology, gathering the best and most significant American environmental writing from the last two centuries. Classics of the environmental imagination, the essays of Henry David Thoreau, John Muir, and John Burroughs; Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac; Rachel Carson's Silent Spring - are set against the inspiring story of an emerging activist movement, as revealed by newly uncovered reports of pioneering campaigns for conservation, passages from landmark legal opinions and legislation, and searing protest speeches. Here are some of America's greatest and most impassioned writers, taking a turn toward nature and recognizing the fragility of our situation on earth and the urgency of the search for a sustainable way of life. Thought-provoking essays on overpopulation, consumerism, energy policy, and the nature of nature, join ecologists - memoirs and intimate sketches of the habitats of endangered species. The anthology includes a detailed chronology of the environmental movement and American environmental history, as well as an 80-page color portfolio of illustrations.
Book Synopsis Snowball Earth by : Gabrielle Walker
Download or read book Snowball Earth written by Gabrielle Walker and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2009-08-24 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The riveting story of Earth's first ice age and the scientist who discovered it 'An engrossing book on the emergence of a stunning new account of events on our primordial planet ... fascinating' Sunday Telegraph 'This is a story worth telling ... Walker is an ideal person to tell it ... Racy and pacey, with a focus on the people involved ... A very entertaining read' Independent 'Did the Earth once undergo a super ice age, one that froze the entire planet? A global adventure story and a fascinating account of scientist Paul Hoffman's quest to prove his maverick 'Snowball Earth' theory, this is science writing at its most gripping. In SNOWBALL EARTH, Gabrielle Walker takes us on a thrilling natural history expedition in search of supporting evidence for the audacious theory which argues that the Earth experienced a climatic cataclysm 600 million years ago that froze the entire planet from the poles to the equator. Because the global snowball happened so long ago the ice has now long gone - but it left its traces in rocks around the world and in order to see the evidence, Walker visited such places as Australia, Namibia, South Africa and Death Valley, USA. Part adventure story and part travel book, it's a tale of the ultimate human endeavour to understand our origins.

Book Synopsis Environmental History and Ecology of Moreton Bay by : Daryl McPhee
Download or read book Environmental History and Ecology of Moreton Bay written by Daryl McPhee and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The south-east Queensland region is currently experiencing the most rapid urbanisation in Australia. This growth in human population, industry and infrastructure puts pressure on the unique and diverse natural environment of Moreton Bay. Much loved by locals and holiday-goers, Moreton Bay is also an important biogeographic region because its coral reefs, seagrass beds, mangroves and saltmarshes provide a supportive environment for both tropical and temperate species. The bay supports a large number of species of global conservation significance, including marine turtles, dugongs, dolphins, whales and migratory shorebirds, which use the area for feeding or breeding. Environmental History and Ecology of Moreton Bay provides an interdisciplinary examination of Moreton Bay, increasing understanding of existing and emerging pressures on the region and how these may be mitigated and managed. With chapters on the bay's human uses by Aboriginal peoples and later settlers, its geology, water quality, marine habitats and animal communities, and commercial and recreational fisheries, this book will be of value to students in the marine sciences, environmental consultants, policy-makers and recreational fishers.

Download or read book Philadelphia Radio written by Alan Boris and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philadelphia radio broadcasting began in 1922, when the city's first officially licensed stations went on the air. Within a few years, what had begun as a small, experimental medium became a full-fledged craze as families listened to live news, sports, and entertainment for the first time. In 1932, the first building designed for radio broadcasting opened on Chestnut Street, coinciding with the golden age of radio that featured live orchestras, soap operas, and imaginative dramas. In the 1950s, a few stations began playing rock and roll, and Philadelphia became known as a city that not only produced hit music but also consistently broke new acts. By the 1970s, FM radio began to grab the majority of listeners, and once again Philadelphia stations were responsible for breaking new artists, such as Billy Joel and Bruce Springsteen.

Book Synopsis It Works! Gmat Sentence Correction by : Deborah Phillips
Download or read book It Works! Gmat Sentence Correction written by Deborah Phillips and published by . This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE APPROACH: The approach used in this book is a systematic, skill-building methodology, one that begins with a simple presentation of skills in the lessons and ends with tests that consist of GMAT-style questions at the difficulty level of the actual test. This is an approach that has been tried out over decades, and it is an approach that works In each lesson, one skill is presented using examples containing easier language than the language found on a GMAT to ensure that the targeted skill is clear. A skills practice exercise follows each skill presentation, using language that is at the difficulty level of the GMAT but is in a single-sentence format that makes the practice easier than GMAT-style questions. The materials then progress to GMAT-style skills practice exercises that are at the level of the actual test but cover only the material from that particular lesson. Thorough explanations follow each skills practice exercise and each GMAT-style practice exercise. After all the individual lessons have been mastered, GMAT-style tests are presented. These GMAT-style tests contain questions that cover points from each of the lessons. These questions are at the difficulty level of the GMAT and contain the same selection of skills as the GMAT. Thorough explanations follow each skills practice exercise and each GMAT-style test. THE CONTENTS: The book includes a lesson section and a test section. The lesson section includes twelve individual lessons (Nouns, Pronouns, and Possessives, Agreement, Parallelism, Comparisons, Verbs, Modifiers, Sentences, Wordiness, Awkwardness, Diction, Idioms, and Clarity) that are based on an exhaustive study of the points tested on official released GMAT tests; any point that appears on this list has appeared numerous times on official released versions of the test. Each of the twelve lessons includes a presentation, a skills practice exercise with thorough explanations, and a GMAT-style practice exercise with thorough explanations. The test section includes six GMAT-style tests with twelve questions in each (Test 1, Test 2, Test 3, Test 4, Test 5, and Test 6) with thorough explanations for each correct and incorrect answer.
