Book Description
Enormes incendios forestales y de matorrales, aguaceros gigantescos, bosques moribundos , inundaciones, catástrofes por sequías y tornados: noticias de catástrofes casi diarias en periódicos y tickers de noticias. Una serie de procesos irreversibles de destrucción y autodestrucción se están desarrollando en la naturaleza, poniendo en cuestión la supervivencia en cada vez más regiones. Estos procesos lo dejan claro: ¡la catástrofe ecológica global ha comenzado! Los responsables principales de este desarrollo son los supermonopolios internacionales, quienes en su caza por la ganancia máxima, sin piedad y a pesar de saberlo mejor, pasan por alto la necesidad urgente de protección del medio ambiente y las medidas inmediatas que se requieren agudamente. Todos aquellos que no quieran sucumbir en la catástrofe ecológica global hoy más que nunca están desafiadas a emprender una lucha transformadora de la sociedad. El libro pone inequívocamente en claro: la salvación de la humanidad sólo será posible en el verdadero socialismo. Este libro es el tomo suplementario del libro ¡Alarma de catástrofe! ¿Qué hacer contra la destrucción deliberada de la unidad entre el ser humano y la naturaleza?, publicado en 2014. El tomo suplementario da la prueba de que muchos de los pronósticos entonces realizados se están materializando más rápido de lo esperado. ¡Estamos en una carrera contra el tiempo!

Global Environment Outlook - GEO-6: Summary for Policymakers
Author: UN Environment
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108707688
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 25
Book Description
Published to coincide with the Fourth United Nations Environmental Assembly, the Summary for Policymakers of the sixth Global Environment Outlook provides an evidence-based source of environmental information to help policymakers in government, local authorities and businesses achieve the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. Since the first edition in 1997, there have been many examples of environmental improvement, especially where problems have been well identified, manageable, and where regulatory and technological solutions have been readily available. Nevertheless, the overall condition of the global environment has deteriorated and urgent action, involving ambitious and effective policies, is necessary to arrest and reverse this situation. This Summary for Policymakers answers key policy questions by assessing the drivers of environmental change, the scale and effectiveness of policy responses, potential pathways for achieving sustainability goals in an increasingly complex world, and the data and information that can support the decision-making process. Also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

The Forbidden Religion
Author: Jose M. Herrou Aragon
Publisher: José M. Herrou Aragón
ISBN: 1471725693
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
Gnosis means knowledge. But we are not referring to just any knowledge. Gnosis is knowledge which produces a great transformation in those who receive it. Knowledge capable of nothing less than waking up man and helping him to escape from the prison in which he finds himself. That is why Gnosis has been so persecuted throughout the course of history, because it is knowledge considered dangerous for the religious and political authorities who govern mankind from the shadows. Every time this religion, absolutely different from the rest, appears before man, the other religions unite to try to destroy or hide it again. Primordial Gnosis is the original Gnosis, true Gnosis, eternal Gnosis, Gnostic knowledge in its pure form. Due to multiple persecutions, Primordial Gnosis has been fragmented, distorted and hidden.

How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease
Author: United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Government publications
Languages : en
Pages : 728
Book Description
This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.
