Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demystifies the models we use to simulate present and future climates, allowing readers to better understand how to use climate model results.

The book offers a framework for answering this question. It provides readers with a basic primer on climate and climate change, and offers non-technical explanations for how climate models are constructed, why they are uncertain, and what level of confidence we should place in them. It presents current results and the key uncertainties concerning them. Uncertainty is not a weakness but understanding uncertainty is a strength and a key part of using any model, including climate models. Case studies of how climate model output has been used and how it might be used in the future are provided. The ultimate goal of this book is to promote a better understanding of the structure and uncertainties of climate models among users, including scientists, engineers and policymakers.

Download or read book DEMYSTIFY written by Rajan Dubey and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2019-07-01 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A phenomenal journey of unveiling the Scientificity of Homoeopathy that has been mysteriously masked since time immemorial.” This book unfolds the latest, astonishing evidence-based discovery as to how foreign exogenous proteins are capable of disrupting the homeostasis of our body and predisposing it to chronic diseases or chronicity. Dr. Hahnemann has strongly asserted that, “Treat the person as one whole and not his individual parts”, which holds true because when a person falls ill, it’s the interior that gets disturbed first. This disturbance not only disseminates to the functional unit of the body, i.e., the cells, but also pervades the proteins, which form a major constituent of our body. Dr. Rajan Dubey, renowned for his scientific and evidence-based writing, has described the intricate process by which protein disturbance occurs and chronicity commences in our body. He also accentuates the role of external influences like emotions, diet and environment in governing our DNA and genes, whereby exciting and maintaining the disease process. To substantiate the scientificity of the Theory of Chronic Diseases proposed by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann and also to facilitate its easy and practical utility even in today’s era, we took up a retrospective study of a random sample of 30 patients from a pool of around 10,000 patients visiting MEDIGENE HOMOEOCARE, our clinical institute located in Mumbai. The purpose of the study was to trace down the precursor leading to chronicity in each patient. Amongst these, 10 cases are explained in complete detail to serve as a practical guide to the readers. An insight into the remedies, holding close proximity to the case and the differentiation between them, has been imparted as well.

Download or read book Eco Nihilism written by Wendy Lynne Lee and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2017-02-22 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we were to ask what is the root cause of our current and unprecedented environmental crisis, climate change, many, particularly on the progressive Left, would refer to the excesses of capitalism—and they’d be right. In Eco-Nihilism: The Philosophical Geopolitics of the Climate Change Apocalypse, Wendy Lynne Lee demonstrates that there are no versions of conquest capital compatible with the fact of a finite planet and that a logic whose operating premise is growth is destined to not only exhaust our planetary resources, but also generate profound social injustice and geopolitical violence in its pursuit. Nonetheless, it is clear that the violence and injustice of capital is selective—some benefit greatly while others are subjugated to its pathological drive to profit. Hence, Lee argues that any comprehensive analysis of what Jason Moore has dubbed the Capitalocene must include an equally probing account of human chauvinism, that is, the axes along which capital is supplied with resources and labor. Defined in terms of race, sex, gender, and species, these axes come ready-made to the advantage of capitalist commodification. Without an understanding of how and why, humanity will remain doomed to settling for a sustainably unjust world as opposed to realizing a just and desirable one. Indeed, on our current trajectory, we may not even achieve the sustainable. The introduction of climate change into the mix of environmental deterioration, the ever-widening economic gap between global North and global South, and the accelerating violence of terrorism, civil war, and human slavery make of a warming planet a combustible world. The only way out requires ending the myth of endless resources, a rejection of climate change denial, and a radical re-valuation of human-centeredness, not as a locus of power, but as an opportunity to take moral and epistemic responsibility for a world whose biotic diversity and ecological integrity make the struggle to realize it worthwhile. This solution demands not only an end to capitalism, but the deliberate reclamation of value—aesthetic, moral, and civic—and a radical transformation of both personal and collective conscience. Lee appeals to the experiential aesthetics of John Dewey and the feminist concept of the standpoint of the subjugated. She argues for a version of the precautionary principle informed by an environmentally and socially responsible concept of the desirable future as the clearest path away from the precipice.
