Download or read book Energy Democracy written by Denise Fairchild and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The near-unanimous consensus among climate scientists is that the massive burning of gas, oil, and coal is having cataclysmic impacts on our atmosphere and climate. These climate and environmental impacts are particularly magnified and debilitating for low-income communities and communities of color. Energy democracy tenders a response and joins the environmental and climate movement with broader movements for social and economic change in this country and around the world. Energy Democracy brings together racial, cultural, and generational perspectives to show what an alternative, democratized energy future can look like. The book will inspire others to take up the struggle to build the energy democracy movement.
Download or read book Matter written by Andi Diehn and published by Nomad Press. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matter: Physical Science for Kids from the Picture Book Science series gets kids excited about science! What’s the matter? Everything is matter! Everything you can touch and hold is made up of matter—including you, your dog, and this book! Matter is stuff that you can weigh and that takes up space, which means pretty much everything in the world is made of matter. In Matter: Physical Science for Kids, kids ages 5 to 8 explore the definition of matter and the different states of matter, plus the stuff in our world that isn’t matter, such as sound and light! In this nonfiction picture book, children are introduced to physical science through detailed illustrations paired with a compelling narrative that uses fun language to convey familiar examples of real-world science connections. By recognizing the basic physics concept of matter and identifying the different ways matter appears in real life, kids develop a fundamental understanding of physical science and are impressed with the idea that science is a constant part of our lives and not limited to classrooms and laboratories. Simple vocabulary, detailed illustrations, easy science experiments, and a glossary all support exciting learning for kids ages 5 to 8. Perfect for beginner readers or as a read aloud nonfiction picture book! Part of a set of four books in a series called Picture Book Science that tackles different kinds of physical science (waves, forces, energy, and matter), Matter offers beautiful pictures and simple observations and explanations. Quick STEM activities such as weighing two balloons to test if air is matter help readers cross the bridge from conceptual to experiential learning and provide a foundation of knowledge that will prove invaluable as kids progress in their science education. Perfect for children who love to ask, “Why?” about the world around them, Matter satisfies curiosity while encouraging continual student-led learning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential guide for anyone with an interest in body therapy, this book contains an exploration of the connections between Eastern and Western beliefs about health and the human body, based on the concept of energy as a fundamental force in nature. This hidden-energy theory incorporates facets of Chinese acupuncture and Hindu yoga, while establishing that Western medical knowledge validates these ancient Eastern insights. Dr. Smith explains how healthcare practitioners can access this energy through their hands, feel its existence, and see a person's response to the movements. Medical practitioners as well as patients can use this book to learn how to: -Bridge Eastern and Western belief systems -Connect Eastern Yoga and Western theories of anatomy -Bridge the physical and spiritual worlds -Diagnose illness -Communicate in the therapeutic setting -Create a healing perspective -Expanding their vision of the human body
Download or read book Mindful Movement written by Sang H. Kim and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a guide to invigorating your internal Ki energy flow through a unique sequence of 12 movements (MBX-12) targeting the 12 meridian energy channels. MBX-12 brings together mindful movement and deep breathing to create an active form of moving meditation. As you learn the exercises that make up the MBX-12 routine, you will develop an understanding of the mindfulness practice principles of attention, centring and release. Sang H Kim introduces the movements of MBX with step-by-step practice guidance, focal points, self-assessment criteria, wellness applications and detailed explanations of how mindful movement influences your inner energy flow. You'll also learn 13 MBX Mudras, symbolic hand movements that activate the 6 meridians in the hand and affect energy flow across the body. Throughout the book, short readings introduce you to the four pillars of energy transformation: mindfulness, movement, breath, and meridians. For experienced mind-body practitioners, MBX-12 is an excellent supplement to other mindful movement practice such as Yoga, Taichi, and Qigong. MBX-12 integrates your moving body with your breath, redirects energy flow along the 12 meridians, and unites the mind with all in the present.
Download or read book Nothing Happens Until Something Moves written by Margaret Wiss and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing happens until something moves? If nothing is happening where is the movement initiated from? Life moves in a series of reactions and changes in energy. Movement is produced from the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy. Potential energy is stored energy and depends on gravity, the mass and relative position of an object in space (Peterson). Kinetic energy is the work to accelerate a body (Peterson). Humans are perpetually in a state of kinetic energy; on the microscopic scale, charges equalize to activate ion channels and transport hormones and necessary molecules such as oxygen and glucose (Sherwood). Neurons constantly fire in the brain, playing a role in voluntary and involuntary behavior generating thoughts and emotions. Muscles pump the heart, circulate blood, and move the skeleton (Clippinger). Physical forces such as friction and gravity affect the efficiency of the system (Hinrichs et al.). These external forces determine the degree of movement a body can have, both on the microscopic and macroscopic scale. But the average individual is unaware of these forces. How and through what medium can these invisibilities be revealed? Like scientists, I believe artists hold the tools to expose hidden forces. In my studies of dance kinesiology I have explored biomechanics, specifically the kinetic energy of the body, space, and sound and played with magnifying these concepts through movement for the stage. My research over the last four years culminated in the creation of a mini ballet: Nothing happens until something moves. This paper, presented as a laboratory report, analyzes each component of the creative process.

Download or read book Body Physics written by Lawrence Davis and published by . This book was released on 201? with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Body Physics was designed to meet the objectives of a one-term high school or freshman level course in physical science, typically designed to provide non-science majors and undeclared students with exposure to the most basic principles in physics while fulfilling a science-with-lab core requirement. The content level is aimed at students taking their first college science course, whether or not they are planning to major in science. However, with minor supplementation by other resources, such as OpenStax College Physics, this textbook could easily be used as the primary resource in 200-level introductory courses. Chapters that may be more appropriate for physics courses than for general science courses are noted with an asterisk symbol (*). Of course this textbook could be used to supplement other primary resources in any physics course covering mechanics and thermodynamics"--Textbook Web page.
