Sinossi

Sky Pollution examines how atmospheric pollutants from sources like industrial emissions and vehicle exhaust alter our skies, impacting their color, visibility, and air quality. It highlights how reduced visibility affects transportation and how air pollution contributes to respiratory illnesses, emphasizing the need for environmental stewardship.

 
The book uniquely combines atmospheric science, chemistry, and geography to explain the generation, dispersion, and interaction of pollutants, revealing the tangible threat to both environmental and human well-being.

 
The book progresses from basic atmospheric optics and pollutant chemistry to detailed case studies of pollution sources and their geographical distribution. Using data-driven assessments, satellite imagery analysis, and air quality indices, it showcases the transboundary nature of atmospheric pollutants.

 
By linking sky pollution to urban planning and public policy, Sky Pollution underscores the necessity for integrated solutions, making complex scientific information accessible to a broad audience concerned about environmental and earth sciences.

    ECPA Top Shelf Book Cover Award
    "Perfect for fans of faith writing by Madeline L'Engle and Anne Lamott, Ellis's exquisite book resounds with hope and birdsong." — Booklist, April 2024
    "Look at the birds"
    Through the painful days of the pandemic stuck in her home, Courtney Ellis found herself looking down in despair. Soon after, her beloved grandfather died unexpectedly.
    It was around this same time that Ellis took up watching birds. "Took up" might not be exactly right—as she puts it, "the switch flipped," and she's been borderline obsessed with birds ever since.
    Looking Up is a meditation on birding as a practice of hope. Weaving together stories from her own life, including the death of her grandfather, with reflections on birds of many kinds, Ellis invites us to open our eyes to the goodness of God both in the natural world and in our own lives. By "looking up" to the birds, Ellisfound the beauty and wonder of these creatures calling her out of her darkness into the light and hope of God's promises.

    A guided journey through the inner workings of Earth, the cloaked mysteries of other planets in our solar system, and beyond. 
     
     
     
    Earth, from space, looks like a shimmering gem suspended in an inky, infinite expanse. But this serene image masks the magnificent and volatile interior forces that make life possible for millions of species on the surface. The placid appearances of our neighboring planets similarly belie their powers—and science fiction-worthy features, like diamond rain. The daily machinations of Earth's deep interior make the planet a habitable, yet sometimes treacherous, place to live. Drill down thousands of miles through our built environments and soil, sand, water, rock, and minerals to the outer (mainly liquid iron with nickel) and inner core, encountering intense convection, roiling metals, hidden continents, and shifting tectonic plates. Discover the effects of magnetism, rotation, and seismic activity seen and sensed in the forms of auroras, hurricanes, volcanoes, and earthquakes, among other manifestations. 
     
     
     
    Join this exciting journey to far-flung interstellar locations and the center of the Earth to learn what lies beneath our feet, and why it's the best real estate in our solar system.
