Download or read book Cull of the Wild written by Hugh Warwick and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-28 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LONGLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR WRITING ON CONSERVATION Investigating the ethical and practical challenges of one of the greatest threats to biodiversity: invasive species. Across the world, invasive species pose a danger to ecosystems. The UN Convention on Biological Diversity ranks them as a major threat to biodiversity on par with habitat loss, climate change and pollution. Tackling this isn't easy, and no one knows this better than Hugh Warwick, a conservationist who loathes the idea of killing, harming or even eating animals. Yet as an ecologist, he is acutely aware of the need, at times, to kill invasive species whose presence harms the wider environment. Hugh explores the complex history of species control, revealing the global movement of species and the impacts of their presence. Combining scientific theory with gentle humour in his signature style, he explains the issues conservationists face to control non-native animals and protect native species – including grey and red squirrels on Anglesey, ravens and tortoises in the Mojave Desert, cane toads in Australia and the smooth-billed ani on the Galapagos – and describes cases like Pablo Escobar's cocaine hippos and the Burmese python pet trade. Taking a balanced and open approach to this emotive subject, Hugh speaks to experts on all sides of the debate. How do we protect endangered native species? Which species do we prioritise? And how do we reckon with the ethics of killing anything in the name of conservation?

Download or read book Que Sera written by Barry T Cull and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-03-13 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The future’s not ours to see Que sera, sera.” BARRY CULL wasn’t supposed to survive to his fifth birthday. He was born with a hole in his heart at a time when that was a death sentence; however, times were changing, and an experimental surgery under development in Canada gave his parents hope. Barry did survive: He survived childhood open-heart surgery from the man who pioneered the operation. He got to hold his baby sister, and a baby brother after that. He moved from England to Canada and back, and back again. He grew, went to camp and to an experimental self-directed high school, took an ill-advised hitchhiking trip to the West Coast, played in folk and garage bands, and eventually earned a masters in child development psychology. But the trauma of Barry’s heart condition, and the things he and his family sacrificed to see him to adulthood, would reverberate throughout his life. His parents’ relationship broke down as both parents retreated into self-destructive coping mechanisms—his father into alcoholism, his mother into self-delusion and fantasy. He was emotionally abused through his teens and young adulthood as he struggled to find his feet. Long after his heart was beating at its full potential, Barry would find himself facing down the lingering specter of what had happened when he was just a child. His story is one of trauma and resilience, of struggle and failure—and, in the end, of healing.
Book Synopsis Public Diplomacy by : Nicholas J. Cull
Download or read book Public Diplomacy written by Nicholas J. Cull and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-04-15 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New technologies have opened up fresh possibilities for public diplomacy, but this has not erased the importance of history. On the contrary, the lessons of the past seem more relevant than ever, in an age in which communications play an unprecedented role. Whether communications are electronic or hand-delivered, the foundations remain as valid today as they ever have been. Blending history with insights from international relations, communication studies, psychology, and contemporary practice, Cull explores the five core areas of public diplomacy: listening, advocacy, cultural diplomacy, exchanges, and international broadcasting. He unpacks the approaches which have dominated in recent years – nation-branding and partnership – and sets out the foundations for successful global public engagement. Rich with case studies and examples drawn from ancient times through to our own digital age, the book shows the true capabilities and limits of emerging platforms and technologies, as well as drawing on lessons from the past which can empower us and help us to shape the future. This comprehensive and accessible introduction is essential reading for students, scholars, and practitioners, as well as anyone interested in understanding or mobilizing global public opinion.

Book Synopsis Vaccine: The Cull by : Stephanie C. Fox
Download or read book Vaccine: The Cull written by Stephanie C. Fox and published by QueenBeeBooks. This book was released on 2015-08-03 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever read a dystopian novel in which you wondered how the world as we know it collapsed? Well…this novel explains that. Most apocalypse stories begin sometime in the future, after the devastation has been wrought. Not this one. This one lets you watch the horror unfold. Vaccine: The Cull - Nae-Née Wasn't Enough continues the tale of Nae-Née with a study of U.N. Agenda 21's “green”, “eco-friendly”, and “sustainability” policies while a New World Order perpetrates a covert population cull via a vaccine with a secret ingredient: a nanite that destroys cancer tumor suppressor proteins. This is a resource war. After the U.N. population treaty implemented a policy of world-wide use of the birth control nanite, Nae-Née, human-caused stressors on the ecosystem literally heated up. No longer was our planet on the brink of collapse due to biodiversity loss, rising sea levels, floods, droughts, overdependence on fossil fuels, and the climate changes that drive all that. No – collapse was upon us at last. The measures taken to handle resource shortages right in everyone’s backyards are shown: a population cull hidden in a vaccine, and a militarized surveillance society to manage the overflow.
