Book Description
Earth originated about 4.5 billion years ago, the first life evolved around 3.7 billion years ago. The Homo sapiens have lived since about 200,000 to 300,000 years ago. Massive and radical disastrous changes in the ecosystems have been happening due to the activities of ever growing human population sustenance. Last 150 years had been very disastrous for the earth due to the activities of human beings. Anyone desiring honour and respect should not forget the basis of ones existence. As human beings one need to show reverence to the three fundamental things a reason for ones existence on earth. Mother Earth Ancestral Lineage Biodiversity Such earth centers play a key role in bringing together all the people living in villages for a common purpose of presenting themselves as one community, with common heritage and values. They would be the sacred places which promote peace, harmony, well-being and happiness among the communities. The pride and honour of the local communities also improve. There is also scope as resource centers for knowledge sharing, capacity building, reinforce traditional values, awareness, sensitization and networking with other earth centers with common objectives. Any person by visiting a number of earth centers would value the earth resources and respect mother earth. Finally one would believe, mother earth is one, and it is for all, to coexist with least impact for peace and harmony. For the future generations they would leave a strong message to adopt sustainable development solutions. These are the centers by the people for sustainability. All those involved in the establishment and sustenance of earth centers are the earth leaders. Each earth center evolves to as per the aspirations of the local communities. The ideas shared in this book are not limited to a particular geographic region of place. The author visited several villages, and in each village, as per the convenience and resources they are planning their centers.

Book Description
Poetry. With patience and precision, Hannah Brooks-Motl's third collection of poems, EARTH, explores the grand themes of love, family, economy, and home with the skill of a true craftsman. As the measured compositions of these poems shift, so do their near-sculptural forms, and a feeling both classical and contemporary develops. At times a paean to poetry, other times a critique of it, EARTH is a breakthrough collection by a poet who's ceaselessly sharp intellect continues to use poetry to gain insight into not only her own wants and needs, but ours, and those of poetry itself.

The Problem of the Earth's Shape from Newton to Clairaut
Author: John L. Greenberg
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521385411
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 808
Book Description
This book investigates, through the problem of the earth's shape, part of the development of post-Newtonian mechanics by the Parisian scientific community during the first half of the eighteenth century. In the Principia Newton first raised the question of the earth's shape. John Greenberg shows how continental scholars outside France influenced efforts in Paris to solve the problem, and he also demonstrates that Parisian scholars, including Bouguer and Fontaine, did work that Alexis-Claude Clairaut used in developing his mature theory of the earth's shape. The evolution of Parisian mechanics proved not to be the replacement of a Cartesian paradigm by a Newtonian one, a replacement that might be expected from Thomas Kuhn's formulations about scientific revolutions, but a complex process instead involving many areas of research and contributions of different kinds from the entire scientific world. Greenberg both explores the myriad of technical problems that underlie the historical development of part of post-Newtonian mechanics, which have only been rarely analyzed by Western scholars, and embeds his technical discussion in a framework that involves social and institutional history politics, and biography. Instead of focusing exclusively on the historiographical problem, Greenberg shows as well that international scientific communication was as much a vital part of the scientific progress of individual nations during the first half of the eighteenth century as it is today.
