Download or read book English for geographers written by Carmen Isabel Luján García and published by Editorial Club Universitario. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English for Geographers is a textbook intended to be used not only by students of the university degree of Geography, but also by anybody interested in the field of geography. It is divided into seven different units, each of them dealing with a specific topic (introduction to geography, human geography, environmental geography, tourist geography, Internet for geographers, cartography and climatology). Each of the units offers the learners a variety of activities to improve their skills, mostly reading and writing in English, as well as the capacity to increase their vocabulary related to this field. Following the European philosophy that promotes the use of new technologies throughout the teaching/learning process, students are proposed a series of activities such as an online glossary (which allows students to build up their own classroom dictionary), and a class forum (to exchange their knowledge, opinions, and so on). Eventually, at the end of each unit, learners are asked to fill out a conscious learning grid chart in order to make them aware of their learning process, as encouraged by EHEA (European Higher Education Area). After fulfilling this course, students are expected to reach level B1 according to Common European framework of reference for languages.

Book excerpt: Enormes incendios forestales y de matorrales, aguaceros gigantescos, bosques moribundos , inundaciones, catástrofes por sequías y tornados: noticias de catástrofes casi diarias en periódicos y tickers de noticias. Una serie de procesos irreversibles de destrucción y autodestrucción se están desarrollando en la naturaleza, poniendo en cuestión la supervivencia en cada vez más regiones. Estos procesos lo dejan claro: ¡la catástrofe ecológica global ha comenzado! Los responsables principales de este desarrollo son los supermonopolios internacionales, quienes en su caza por la ganancia máxima, sin piedad y a pesar de saberlo mejor, pasan por alto la necesidad urgente de protección del medio ambiente y las medidas inmediatas que se requieren agudamente. Todos aquellos que no quieran sucumbir en la catástrofe ecológica global hoy más que nunca están desafiadas a emprender una lucha transformadora de la sociedad. El libro pone inequívocamente en claro: la salvación de la humanidad sólo será posible en el verdadero socialismo.

Download or read book Methodological guide to reduce carbon and water footprints in banana plantations written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Banana Forum (WBF) publication developed a methodological guide to reduce water and carbon footprints in banana plantations worldwide. Members of the Working Group (WG) on Sustainable Production Systems and Environmental Impact acknowledged the contribution of banana production in the total global GHG emissions and the consumption of freshwater in the economic activity, both stressed in the 2015 Paris Climate Conference (COP21), having the agricultural sector a high mitigation potential. Therefore, the WG wishes to contribute to the global fight against climate change and promote the sustainable use of natural resources, developing practical tools to strengthen the efforts of the global banana industry to reduce its carbon and water footprint (CWF). Since banana farmers are struggling to adapt to climate change, the project aims to mainstream and support the adoption of best climate-smart practices and efficient water management in the banana value chain as part of the environmental strategy of organizations. Efforts to promote CWF reduction programs in the banana industry are still incipient and carried out mostly by multinationals, due in part to the implementation costs, the complexity of the topic for farmers, the lack of user-friendly tools to measure them efficiently, and that is still a B2B-driven strategy not yet recognized by consumers. Even though the need for supporting carbon and water footprint analysis (CWF) in the banana industry remains strong, there is still an apparent lack of sufficient financial incentives by both the governments and the global market.
