Beschreibung

"Sky Holds Rivers" reveals the critical, yet often unseen, role of atmospheric rivers in our planet's environment, shaping weather patterns and influencing ecosystems. These airborne waterways profoundly impact the global water cycle, delivering essential rainfall to some regions while posing threats of flooding and landslides to others. It's intriguing to consider that the sky holds "rivers" of water vapor, impacting everything from daily weather to long-term climate trends. The book explores the formation, tracking, and environmental consequences of atmospheric rivers, highlighting how climate change is intensifying these weather events. Meteorologists use satellite imagery and radar systems to map these phenomena.

 
Divided into three parts, "Sky Holds Rivers" first introduces the concept, then examines monitoring technologies, and finally analyzes environmental and societal impacts. The book uses data from scientific research and real-time weather events to present a complete view of the Earth's system, focusing on the scientific understanding of atmospheric rivers and their impact. The unique value of "Sky Holds Rivers" lies in its accessible blend of scientific rigor and clear language, making complex concepts understandable for a broad audience interested in Environment, Earth Sciences Geography. By connecting atmospheric rivers to fields like hydrology, ecology, and disaster management, it provides a holistic perspective. The book also underscores the increasing need for improved climate forecasting and disaster preparedness due to the growing intensity of weather events.

    In 2019, Jenna Watt took part in the stalking of a hind on the vast Highland estate of Corrour: part of an immersive attempt to understand the ideas that lie behind 'rewilding', and what it means emotionally and physically to participate in Scotland's deer cull. Piece by piece and chapter by chapter she unravels the story of that one day spent hunting the hind, interlaced with her discovery that her ancestors were deer stalkers, game keepers, and ghillies on a Highland estate, who once took part in increasingly controversial land practices like muirburn and species persecution. 
     
     
     
    This exploration leads her into the complex and often conflict-ridden world of the rewilding movement. 
     
     
     
    In the process, Jenna comes to better understand the meaning of 'wildness', the shifting baselines of 'rewilding', and, in a world beset by climate change and species extinction, how to cope, both as an individual and as a society, with the concept of ecological grief.

    Book Summary of "Sapiens" by Yuval Noah Harari 
     
    Important note: This is not the original book. This is a book summary of the following book: 
    Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari 
    About 
    Our species, Homo sapiens, started out as just another insignificant animal—among countless others. But at some point, homo sapiens made a rapid jump to domination over all other species. This rapid rise has left humanity anxious, destructive, and often miserable—despite all our efforts to be happy. Yuval Noah Harari's book 'Sapiens,' traces the origins and effects of what we think of as “human progress” from small bands of hunter-gatherers 100,000 years ago to the present-day global network through which our species has come to dominate the Earth. This bird's-eye view of human history delves into the development of sapiens' social organization and the structural features of human cultures through which our species has spread and evolved, including breakthroughs like human language, the use of human imagination, and the rise of the concept of a better future that lies just beyond the horizon. Through these mechanisms, our species has evolved into a species that's increasingly in control of our own destiny. This book considers how this evolution has occurred, whether this progress has been beneficial, and what the future might hold for our species. 
     
    Here's what you'll learn about in this summary:  
    —How our species has evolved, not just biologically, but socially. 
    —How history, overall, is moving in the direction of global unity of humankind. 
    —How none of the outcomes of history have been inevitable, and the flexible nature of the social order may mean that our species can control its destiny.
