The book aims to propose a project that will save and protect the Amazon rainforest. This goal would be obtained through the protection of the edges of the rainforest. The project focuses on the problem of the civil exploitation and tries to find a possible solution to it. The Amazon rainforest is one of the most important things we have in this world to fight climate change: that's why we need to protect it. The only way to do it is through the best means that our time can give us: technology and economy.

    Throughout personal essays spiked with humor and natural science, archaeologist R. E. Burrillo widens his range beyond his popular Behind the Bears Ears. 
 
 
 
After an upstate New York childhood and a bartending stint in New Orleans's French Quarter, seasonal resort work led R. E. Burrillo to the desert Southwest, whose redrock landscapes were a source of stability through mental and physical illness. In The Backwoods of Everywhere, archaeologist Burrillo excavates his past, examining Indigenous and tourist cultures, the complexities of American archaeology, and what it means to be a local. From the ancient canal systems of Phoenix, Arizona, to the modern Mayan communities of the Yucatan Peninsula, to the depths of the Grand Canyon, Burrillo brings listeners on an entertaining romp chock-full of history, ecology, cultural preservation, and personal stories. 
 
 
 
In the vein of Bill Bryson, Tim Cahill, and Ellen Meloy, Burrillo's is a fresh voice in humor-spiked nature writing and cultural commentary. Running throughout the wide-ranging topics of The Backwoods of Everywhere are themes of place and locality, and how these vary between cultures and individuals. Marrying the intensely personal with the complex and technical, Burrillo's candid voice brings humor, wonder, irony, and wit to each thought-provoking essay.

    Is a zebra black with white stripes or white with black stripes? And why do flamingos stand on one leg while bats hang upside down? Did you know that a chameleon’s tongue can shoot out at five times the acceleration of a fighter jet? 
In The Buck That Buries its Poo, naturalist Quinton Coetzee answers these and many other intriguing wildlife questions. He also dispels countless myths and elucidates some of the legends that surround 
creatures in the South African bush we thought we knew all about. For example, bats do not get tangled in people’s hair (because they are far too adept at flying) and elephants are not afraid of mice (but they do fear bees!). 
Other tall tales you might hear around the campfire are that lions roll in animal dung, entrails or carcasses to disguise their scent, and that rhinos have a predilection for stamping out fires. What is true, though, is that hyenas are more closely related to cats than to dogs. This handy guide is based on Coetzee’s own research and that of others, and his experience gleaned over decades living close to nature and wildlife. It seeks to unravel the mysteries of nature in Africa – from mammals and birds to arthropods and plants – with fascinating information and fun trivia. It is a book that will enlighten and entertain. 
PS: Zebras are black with white stripes!

    Witnessing the growing division in our communities, cities, and country is heartbreaking. Our worlds feel ripped apart, and we all know the pain of feeling separated. 
While we universally agree on the need to bridge our divides, our calls for unity often intensify our differences instead of healing them. One significant reason is the irresponsible use of science. Its misuse, abuse, and overuse have deepened our divides. 
This book begins with accessible chapters on the fundamentals of scientific tools, gradually progressing to discuss their abuse in the most contentious debates of our time, including global warming, COVID-19, Big Pharma, abortion, and gender fluidity. 
After reading, you'll gain the ability to critically assess scientific claims in the news and engage in debates where science is misrepresented. Join me on this journey to unravel the misuse and limits of science and take a transformative step toward healing our divide.

    AI systems are designed and programmed to mimic human thought and behavior, making artificial intelligence an integral part of our daily lives. This technology impacts a wide range of services and experiences. 
  
For many, the most visible benefits of AI are seen in new gadgets and features, such as voice-activated assistants and facial recognition for unlocking devices. However, AI is also set to revolutionize other areas, such as healthcare. For example, hospitals in India are testing software that analyzes retinal images to detect diabetic retinopathy, a condition that is often diagnosed too late to prevent vision loss. In autonomous driving, AI helps vehicles understand and navigate their environments. AI is already embedded in many applications, from search algorithms to bionic limbs for the disabled.
