Earth and Energy, Power and Pollution: Climate Change Crisis?
Author: Patrick Simmons
Publisher: Outskirts Press
ISBN: 1977260411
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
Human population growth and wars led humanity to develop novel methods to harvest food and advance manufacturing techniques. This drove increased use of earth’s energy forms. The period from 1770 until now is known as the Advent of Mass Production. It was also the Dawn of Pollution, during when the demand and control of crude oil energy and human cupidity overcame discipline and sensibility in resource management. Waste in the forms of smog, foul air, and damage to the atmosphere and environment resulted. Finally, in 2018, extreme weather prompted scientists to sound the alarm. That sparked political panic to save earth from climate change crisis. The historic natural climate has not changed. Air pollution caused weather warming and cooling, and health problems. In the Artic, permafrost is melting releasing methane in a closed loop cycle that may be irreversible. World inhabitants will soon see weather that they have never seen before. What to do? The answer is do not politicize or over-regulate earth problems. Listen to futurist leaders who understand the science and have created solutions since Galileo (1564-1642). Develop alternate energy, capture CO2, convert methane to hydrogen, and stop polluting the globe. Most importantly educate the world before more humans join the dark clouds of pollution witnesses.

The Outlaw Ocean
Author: Ian Urbina
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0451492951
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 560
Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A riveting, adrenaline-fueled tour of a vast, lawless, and rampantly criminal world that few have ever seen: the high seas. There are few remaining frontiers on our planet. But perhaps the wildest, and least understood, are the world's oceans: too big to police, and under no clear international authority, these immense regions of treacherous water play host to rampant criminality and exploitation. Traffickers and smugglers, pirates and mercenaries, wreck thieves and repo men, vigilante conservationists and elusive poachers, seabound abortion providers, clandestine oil-dumpers, shackled slaves and cast-adrift stowaways—drawing on five years of perilous and intrepid reporting, often hundreds of miles from shore, Ian Urbina introduces us to the inhabitants of this hidden world. Through their stories of astonishing courage and brutality, survival and tragedy, he uncovers a globe-spanning network of crime and exploitation that emanates from the fishing, oil, and shipping industries, and on which the world's economies rely. Both a gripping adventure story and a stunning exposé, this unique work of reportage brings fully into view for the first time the disturbing reality of a floating world that connects us all, a place where anyone can do anything because no one is watching.

Heaven and Earth
Author: I. R. Plimer
Publisher: Taylor Trade Publishing
ISBN: 9781589794726
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Climate, sea level, and ice sheets have always changed, and the changes observed today are less than those of the past. Climate changes are cyclical and are driven by the Earth's position in the galaxy, the sun, wobbles in the Earth's orbit, ocean currents, and plate tectonics. In previous times, atmospheric carbon dioxide was far higher than at present but did not drive climate change. No runaway greenhouse effect or acid oceans occurred during times of excessively high carbon dioxide. During past glaciations, carbon dioxide was higher than it is today. The non-scientific popular political view is that humans change climate. Do we have reason for concern about possible human-induced climate change? This book's 504 pages and over 2,300 references to peer-reviewed scientific literature and other authoritative sources engagingly synthesize what we know about the sun, earth, ice, water, and air. Importantly, in a parallel to his 1994 book challenging "creation science," Telling Lies for God, Ian Plimer describes Al Gore's book and movie An Inconvenient Truth as long on scientific "misrepresentations." "Trying to deal with these misrepresentations is somewhat like trying to argue with creationists," he writes, "who misquote, concoct evidence, quote out of context, ignore contrary evidence, and create evidence ex nihilo."
