Beschreibung

Wood Cooling Homes explores the potential of wood as a sustainable solution for naturally cooling residential buildings, reducing our reliance on energy-intensive air conditioning. The book delves into wood's inherent thermal properties, showcasing how this renewable resource can contribute to energy conservation and more comfortable living spaces. It highlights intriguing facts such as the relationship between wood density, moisture content, and thermal conductivity and examines how vernacular architecture historically utilized wood for climate-responsive design. The book uniquely bridges traditional knowledge with modern building science, demonstrating how responsible forestry contributes to carbon sequestration. It progresses from foundational principles of thermal insulation and wood properties to case studies of historical and contemporary wood buildings, culminating in practical design guidelines for integrating wood into modern homes. By examining wood's role within sustainability movements, the book advocates for a holistic approach to building design, challenging conventional reliance on active cooling systems.

    Constructing Canine Consent -...

    The concept of canine consent is far more than simply a buzzword in modern dog training practices. In its current form, consent is a distinctly human concept, designed by humans and for humans. Looking beyond species boundaries can help us not only consider concepts of canine consent and autonomy, but it can also help us to apply these concepts in our everyday interactions with dogs, which is fundamental for any professional working with dogs as well as for everyday dog caregivers. This canine-indexed definition of consent includes a model of five major categories: Touch/interaction-based consent, cooperative care using learned consent behaviors, activity consent, consent-based learning, and substitutive consent. These categories involve a two-way communication system, integration of salient choices, teaching consent behaviors and incorporating existing training protocols that adhere to the Humane Hierarchy of best practices, and an evaluation of dependent decision-making in extenuating circumstances. This book aims to merge the existing literature and new understandings about canine consent to paint a complete picture. It will challenge the current expectations of dogs and dog behavior in our society with an intention of considering their perspectives, experiences, and emotional needs.

    Invisible Worlds - Discovering...

    The universe we observe with our naked eyes or through telescopes is only a fraction of the total cosmos. The rest of the universe, a vast portion, remains invisible and hidden from our view. This hidden matter is known as dark matter, dark energy, and other mysterious entities that make up the majority of the universe. Though we cannot directly observe these hidden components, their existence is inferred through indirect evidence, such as their gravitational effects on visible matter. The study of these hidden aspects of the universe is an ongoing effort to understand what makes up the majority of the cosmos. 
    One of the most significant mysteries in modern physics is the nature of dark matter. This form of matter doesn't emit, absorb, or reflect light, making it completely invisible to conventional instruments. Yet, its presence is essential for explaining the structure and behavior of galaxies. Without dark matter, galaxies would not have enough mass to hold themselves together. The gravitational influence of dark matter helps galaxies maintain their shape and stability, preventing them from being torn apart by their own rotational forces. Though we can't see dark matter, we can detect its effects on visible matter, such as the way galaxies rotate. 
    In addition to dark matter, dark energy is another invisible force that plays a crucial role in the universe. Dark energy is responsible for the accelerated expansion of the universe, a discovery that has stunned astronomers since the late 1990s. Unlike dark matter, which exerts a gravitational pull, dark energy pushes galaxies apart, counteracting the forces that would otherwise slow the expansion of the universe. This mysterious force is thought to make up about 68% of the universe's total energy density, yet little is known about its true nature. Understanding dark energy is one of the greatest challenges in modern cosmology.
