Download or read book Relocating world Population for Reducing GHG Emission written by Subhash Lele and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2019-02-26 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dominance of high energy consuming nations and the blame game seems to defeat the purpose of the Kyoto protocol in limiting global temperature increase to 2 degrees Celsius. In the Paris approach in 2015 voluntary targets from individual nations, indicate such commitments will unlock investments that ratchet up ambition on reducing emissions and eventually achieve the low-carbon world that all sides want. The studies show that the countries with highest emission are least vulnerable to climate change effects like rise in sea level, effects on flora and fauna etc. but the most vulnerable countries are African and small island countries which have little contribution to GHG (Green House Gases) emission. It is ironical and unjust for these developing and underdeveloped countries. It is a common saying that when normal methods fail to yield results, an ‘Out of the Box’ measure only may work. Out of multiple options discussed the book, the most acceptable option (and a few may think outrageous looking into political and social fabric of these countries) can be to relocate the population in EU28 countries, Canada and United States to effectively reduce global energy consumption. Author feels, Implementation of this measure, may give us, a reduction in energy consumption by a modest 10-15 % and can result in reduction of @ 1? C in global temperature. This can be a very encouraging gift to the society. The author would leave it at this, to the readers’ discretion to pour in more thoughts. I would be happy to receive feedback and comments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Skies Above explains nearly any and everything weather-related...enlightening and a worthwhile source" -- Portland Book Review 2022 National Outdoor Book Award Silver Medalist in Nature/Environment Full-color photography and illustrations Details seasonal events, from Nor’easters and northern lights to fire whirls and tornadoes Sidebars dive into fascinating facts, quirky phenomena, historic weather events, myths, and more Written by self-professed weather geek Dennis Mersereau, The Skies Above is designed to inspire equal parts amazement and curiosity. Accessible science, illuminating illustrations, and stunning photography bring the meteorological world to life. From basics such as weather fronts and types of precipitation to more unusual occurrences like polar vortexes, meteor showers, solar eclipses, and the spectacular mammatus clouds that signify a supercell thunderstorm, Mersereau tracks key phenomena across the seasons and demystifies celestial events visible to the naked eye but still enigmatic to most. He also delves into how climate change affects weather, forecasts, and other events, such as devastating wildfires and historic hurricanes churning across the Atlantic Ocean. The Skies Above provides readers with a deeper understanding of the processes and events that fill our skies, which not only soothes the anxiety produced by raucous storms, but instills a stronger and more meaningful appreciation of the beauty of days both stormy and calm.
Download or read book Sprinter and Sprummer written by Timothy Entwisle and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sprinter and Sprummer challenges the traditional four seasons, and encourages us to think about how we view changes in our natural world. Since 1788, Australia has carried the yoke of four European seasons that make no sense in most parts of the country. We may like them for historical or cultural reasons, or because they are the same throughout the world, but they tell us nothing of our natural environment. It's time to reject those seasons and to adopt a system that brings us more in tune with our plants and animals – a system that helps us to notice and respond to climate change. Using examples from his 25 years working in botanic gardens, author Timothy Entwisle illustrates how our natural world really responds to seasonal changes in temperature, rainfall and daylight, and why it would be better to divide up the year based on what Australian plants do rather than ancient rites of the Northern Hemisphere. Sprinter and Sprummer opens with the origins and theory of the traditional seasonal system, and goes on to review the Aboriginal seasonal classifications used across Australia. Entwisle then proposes a new five-season approach, explaining the characteristics of each season, along with the biological changes that define them. The book uses seasons to describe the fascinating triggers in the life of a plant (and plant-like creatures), using charismatic flora such as carnivorous plants, the Wollemi Pine and orchids, as well as often overlooked organisms such as fungi. The final chapter considers climate change and how the seasons are shifting whether we like it or not.
