Book Coming Into the City

Download or read book Coming Into the City written by Elise Patkotak and published by Precious Cargo, Limited. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After spending 28 years living in the Inupiat Eskimo community of Barrow, Elise Sereni Patkotak decided it was time to return to the big city. Since New York City, the place she'd left so long ago, seemed a bit scary after living in a state with a population less than that of Brooklyn, she chose to move to Anchorage and gently get back into life amidst coffee stands, malls, fresh produce and highways. The transition was not always easy. This book is a look back at the ten year adjustment she made to wearing bras, experiencing a sun that actually brought heat and watching her parrots discover the feeling of going outside and not freezing to death. It is also a series of ruminations on life as she found it now that she is entering what she likes to refer to as "extreme middle age."

Book The River Pollution Dilemma in Victorian England

Download or read book The River Pollution Dilemma in Victorian England written by Leslie Rosenthal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nineteenth-century Britain witnessed a dramatic increase in its town population, as a hitherto largely rural economy transformed itself into an urban one. Though the political and social issues arising from these events are well-known, little is known about how the British legal process coped with the everyday strains that emerged from the unprecedented scale of these changes. This book explores the river pollution dilemma faced by the British courts during the second half of the nineteenth century when the legal process had to confront the new incompatible realities arising from the increasing amounts of untreatable waste flowing into the rivers. This dilemma struck at the heart of both Victorian urban and rural society, as the necessary sanitary reformation of the swelling cities and expanding industry increasingly poisoned the rivers, threatening the countryside and agricultural rents and livelihoods. Focusing on ten legal disputes, the book investigates the dilemma that faced the courts; namely how to protect the traditional and valued rights of landholders whose rivers and lands were being polluted by industrial waste and untreated sewage, whilst not hindering the progress of sanitary reform and economic progress in the towns. The case studies considered involve major industrialising centres, such as Birmingham, Leeds, Northampton, Wolverhampton and Barnsley, but also include smaller towns such as Tunbridge Wells, Leamington Spa and Harrogate. The fundamental issues raised remain as important today as they did in Victorian times. The need for the courts to balance a variety of conflicting needs and rights within the limits of contemporary technological capabilities often played out in surprising ways, with outcomes not always in line with theoretical expectations. As such the historical context of the disputes provide fascinating insights into nineteenth-century legal process, and the environmental and social attitudes of the times.

Book Excreta Disposal in Emergencies

Download or read book Excreta Disposal in Emergencies written by Peter Harvey and published by Wedc. This book was released on 2007 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is generally accepted that excreta disposal is given less priority in emergencies than other humanitarian interventions such as health care, food and water supply. This is despite the fact that many of the most common diseases occuring in emergency situations are caused by inadequate sanitation facilities and poor hygeine practice. Many aid agencies are aware of these facts and wish to give greater emphasis to excreta disposal. In the past, however, they have often been hampered by a lack of experience and resources to support their field staff. This manual is designed for use by field-based technicians, engineers and non-technical staff responsible for sanitation planning, management and intervention in emergencies. This may include international personnel sent to an emergency, local, national and regional staff.
