Sinopse

"Noise Pollution Limits" explores the complex legal and regulatory landscape surrounding noise pollution, a critical issue impacting public health and environmental protection. The book argues for a multi-faceted approach integrating zoning laws, public health regulations, and environmental impact assessments to effectively control noise levels in both urban and rural settings. Intriguingly, noise pollution is linked to cardiovascular disease, sleep disturbance, and cognitive impairment, especially in children, highlighting the urgency of effective noise regulation.

 
The book traces the evolution of noise regulations and establishes the scientific foundation of noise pollution by defining key terms such as decibels and noise exposure limits. It progresses by examining legal frameworks at local, state, and federal levels, featuring case studies of cities with effective noise control strategies. The book further delves into the practical challenges of enforcement, including monitoring and measurement, emphasizing the need for community engagement.

 
"Noise Pollution Limits" uniquely emphasizes integrated regulatory approaches transcending traditional boundaries. It examines noise ordinances and the role of technology in noise monitoring, drawing upon legal statutes, scientific studies, and statistical data. Ultimately, the book aims to empower readers with the knowledge to advocate for quieter, healthier communities by understanding their rights and promoting effective noise control policies.

  • Unsettled - What Climate Science Tells Us What It Doesn't and Why It Matters Updated and Expanded Edition - cover

    Unsettled - What Climate Science...

    In this updated and expanded edition of climate scientist Steven Koonin’s groundbreaking book, go behind the headlines to discover the latest eye-opening data about climate change—with unbiased facts and realistic steps for the future. 
     
    “Greenland’s ice loss is accelerating.” 
    “Extreme temperatures are causing more fatalities.” 
    “Rapid ‘climate action’ is essential to avoid a future climate disaster.” 
     
    You’ve heard all this presented as fact. But according to science, all of these statements are profoundly misleading. 
     
    With the new edition of Unsettled, Steven Koonin draws on decades of experience—including as a top science advisor to the Obama administration—to clear away the fog and explain what science really says (and doesn’t say). With a new introduction, this edition now features reflections on an additional three years of eye-opening data, alternatives to unrealistic “net zero” solutions, global energy inequalities, and the energy crisis arising from the war in Ukraine. 
     
    When it comes to climate change, the media, politicians, and other prominent voices have declared that “the science is settled.” In reality, the climate is changing, but the why and how aren’t as clear as you’ve probably been led to believe. 
     
    Koonin takes readers behind the headlines, dispels popular myths, and unveils little-known truths: 
    • Despite rising greenhouse gas emissions, global temperatures decreased from 1940 to 1970 
    • Models currently used to predict the future do not accurately describe the climate of the past, and modelers themselves strongly doubt their regional predictions 
    • There is no compelling evidence that hurricanes are becoming more frequent—or that predictions of rapid sea level rise have any validity 
     
    Unsettled is a reality check buoyed by hope, offering the truth about climate science—what we know, what we don’t, and what it all means for our future.

    When Animals Rescue - Amazing...

    What do stories about humpback whales protecting a biologist from a shark, a pride of lions rescuing a girl from kidnappers, gorillas working together to dismantle poacher snares, a parrot warding off an attacker in a park, a chimpanzee consoling a human, and an elephant trying to rescue a baby rhino tell us about animal nature? And what might they suggest about our very own human nature?  
      
    Until just a few decades ago, there were only a few animals reported to behave empathetically and altruistically. More recently, the list of species who have been observed behaving in compassionate, helpful, and caring ways has grown exponentially, ranging from rats to elephants. 
      
    Rescued by a Whale presents dozens of astonishing and heart-warming stories about animals, such as chickens, horses, dolphins, and wolves, who engage in acts of helpful kindness. During a time in history when studies show that human empathy is decreasing, our knowledge about animal empathy is increasing. These true tales of heroism, kindness, and compassion suggest that we have far more in common with other animals than we once believed and provocatively suggest that what’s best about our human natures just might be our animal natures.
