Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peatlands are a unique and fast-disappearing landscape. More and more countries are recognizing this situation and putting protective legislation into place. It is therefore important to understand all the processes and influences that are involved in sustaining the remaining examples of this fragile ecosystem. Addressing two key questions, why should peatlands be conserved and how should this conservation be achieved, this book brings together the leading workers in the area, whose contributions have been developed from the Peatlands Convention in Edinburgh. The book summarizes the current situation regarding peatlands and bogs and sets the agenda for their future survival. This work is important reading for all environmental scientists and practitioners working with peatlands and bogs. The book is also relevant to all government policy makers and voluntary bodies involved in sustaining biodiversity.

Download or read book War Peat written by Ian D. Rotherham and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The themes of this book were addressed at a major international conference in 2013, and the expanded papers are presented here as chapters with an introduction by Ian D. Rotherham. The papers are grouped around several themes: Military Landscapes; Battles and Battlefields; The Impacts of Conflict and War; War & Peat in the Peak District; and Non-military Campaigns. As we approach the centenary of the Great War (WW1), matters of landscape, terrain, resources and strategies become increasingly topical and relevant. The relationships of people and landscapes, of economies and conflicts, and ecology and history, are complex and multi-faceted. For peatlands, including bogs, fens, moors, and heaths, the interactions of people and nature in relation to history and conflicts, are both significant and surprising."--

Download or read book The Rinderpest Campaigns written by Amanda Kay McVety and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-23 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amanda Kay McVety has written the first history of the international effort to eradicate rinderpest - a devastating cattle disease - which began in the 1940s and ended in 2011. Rinderpest is the only other disease besides smallpox to have been eradicated, but very few people in the United States know about it, because it did not infect humans and never broke out in North America. In other parts of the world, however, rinderpest was a serious economic and social burden and the struggle against it was a critical part of the effort to fight poverty and hunger globally. McVety follows the deployment of rinderpest vaccines around the globe, exploring the role of the environment in the understanding of development, internationalism, and national security. She expands the standard Cold War narratives to show how these concepts were framed not only by economic and political concerns, but also by biological ones.
