Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the day that Penny turned 13, her life changed forever. She would become part of a global team of Earth Protectors, bestowed with powers beyond her imagination, and lead three of her best friends in their first mission. With only a few days of training, her team of Protectors would have to learn to harness their powers and special abilities, and work together as a team to protect their homes and their beloved Silver Lake. With their science teacher as their guide, trainer, and former Protector, they will try to learn how to control their animal metamorphoses and the special abilities that come with their various animal forms. These powers may save their lives and the lives of others, so it is necessary for them to master them. But with so many questions unanswered, and so little time to save their community, they must dig deep within themselves to solve all of the problems that come their way. This first mission is just the beginning for the Earth Protectors; they will need to take what they have learned and use their new skills to continue their missions until their 20th birthdays. Their trainer has told them that they might survive until they are 20, but due to the dangers of their missions, they may not make it. They will need to be mature, smart, and creative in order to stop the pollution that may destroy Silver Lake. If they don't learn how to work together with their differing opinions and personalities, everything could be lost. This is the story of the first mission of the Protectors of the Earth, and what happened after they were chosen.

Download or read book Protectors of the Land and Water written by Thomas R. Huffman and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of the twentieth century, Wisconsin citizens have promoted innovative environmental programs. During the 1960s Wisconsin was again at the forefront of the movement advancing mainstream political environmentalism. Thomas Huffman traces the rise of environmentalism in the Badger State during these key years, when the people of Wisconsin instituted policies in such areas as outdoor recreation and resource planning, water pollution control, the preservation of wild rivers, and centralized environmental management. Huffman focuses especially on the influence of Senator Gaylord Nelson, a Democrat and founder of Earth Day, and Governor Warren Knowles, a Republican. He shows that their efforts--and the efforts of their followers in citizen groups, the business and university communities, and the state government--clearly indicate that the origins of environmentalism cannot be placed along a left-right political spectrum. Rather, the movement evolved from an interweaving of liberal and conservative ideologies and from important traditions and precedents within the state's environmental culture. What happened in Wisconsin is particularly significant, Huffman points out, because of the effect of that state's example on other states and the federal government. Originally published in 1994.

Chaos is their playground. The Golden Age is a distant memory, its legacy shrouded in myth and whispers. Now, a creeping darkness threatens to extinguish joy from the very fabric of existence. The Devourer, a formless entity that feeds on despair, stretches its tendrils across the cosmos, its influence casting a pall over countless worlds. Hope dwindles, but a flicker of defiance remains. The Scattered Gods, once revered guardians, are scattered across time and space. Anya, a brilliant scientist thrust into a celestial conflict. Thor, the mighty god of thunder, grappling with the power of humor. Hermes, the trickster god, whose wit may be their only advantage. And Apollo, the sun god, whose celestial music could be the key to salvation. When the Devourer's influence reaches Earth, their paths converge. Aided by a brilliant scientist, Dr. Walker, they must rediscover their powers and forge a bond stronger than any they've known. Their journey takes them through the labyrinthine Yggdrasil, a World Tree where logic crumbles and bacon reigns supreme. Here, they face bizarre creatures, nonsensical challenges, and a test of their comedic timing unlike any other. Can the Scattered Gods reclaim their laughter, the very essence of the Golden Age, and use it as a weapon against the Devourer's soul-crushing despair? Or will the universe succumb to an eternity of joyless silence? The Scattered Gods: Guardians of the Golden Age is a hilarious and heartwarming adventure that blends Norse mythology with science fiction, reminding us that even in the face of darkness, laughter can be the most potent weapon of all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "EMPOWERING...KINARI WEBB IS AN INSPIRATION." --BILL MCKIBBEN "A WONDERFUL BOOK." --JANE GOODALL A TIMELY, HOPEFUL MEMOIR ABOUT A WOMAN SPEARHEADING A GLOBAL INITIATIVE TO HEAL THE WORLD'S RAINFORESTS AND THE COMMUNITIES WHO DEPEND ON THEM Full of hope and optimism, Kinari Webb takes us on an exhilarating, galvanizing journey across the world, sharing her passion for the natural world and for humanity. In our current moment of crisis, Guardians of the Trees is an essential roadmap for moving forward and the inspiring story of one woman’s quest to heal the world. When Webb first traveled to Indonesian Borneo at 21 to study orangutans, she was both awestruck by the beauty of her surroundings and heartbroken by the rainforest destruction she witnessed. As she got to know the local communities, she realized that their need to pay for expensive healthcare led directly to the rampant logging, which in turn imperiled their health and safety even further. Webb realized her true calling was at the intersection of medicine and conservation. After graduating with honors from the Yale School of Medicine, Webb returned to Borneo, listening to local communities about their solutions for how to both protect the rainforests and improve their lives. Founding two non-profits, Health in Harmony in the U.S. and ASRI in Indonesia, Webb and her local and international teams partnered with rainforest communities, building a clinic, developing regenerative economies, providing educational opportunities, and dramatically transforming the region. But just when everything was going right, Webb was stung by a deadly box jellyfish and would spend the next four years fighting for her life, a fight that would lead her to rethink everything. Was she ready to expand her work to a global scale and take climate change head on?
