    Reduce energy costs and combat climate change with ISO 50001
    ISO 50001:2018, the international standard for energy management, provides a framework for organisations – both large and small – to manage and reduce their energy usage and associated costs. Implementing an effective EnMS (energy management system) that complies with ISO 50001 ensures that an organisation can:
    
    - Meet legal and contractual energy compliance requirements;
    - Save money by managing energy more efficiently;
    - Reduce its carbon footprint;
    - Increase energy security; and
    - Demonstrate a commitment to improved energy performance.With energy security concerns rising and climate change an existential threat, consumers are increasingly aware of sustainability issues.
    ISO 50001 – A strategic guide to establishing an energy management system provides a practical but strategic overview for leadership teams of what an EnMS is and how implementing one can bring added value to an organisation. It:
    
    - Explains how ISO 50001:2018 (which is based on ISO's Annex SL) differs from the previous version of the Standard;
    - Provides readers with a greater understanding of what energy management is and how taking a risk-based approach can save money and improve brand reputation; and
    - Covers how ISO 50001 can be implemented and how the EnMS can be integrated with other management systems, such as an ISO 14001 EMS (environmental management system).Your strategic guide to energy management and ISO 50001 – buy this book today!

    An immersive, entertaining journey into the hidden life of the koala, revealing what life is really like up in the trees 
    Despite their iconic status and celebrity, koalas remain something of a mystery. Often affectionate in captivity, they seek out human assistance when in need of water or care yet can also be fierce and belligerent. They are beloved worldwide and feature in popular children’s stories, but are also plagued by sexually transmitted diseases and maligned for a lack of intelligence. Their diet consists solely of leaves that are full of toxins. In some states they are threatened with extinction, while in others they are dying from overpopulation. 
     
    Fuelled by her biologist’s background and deep curiosity, Danielle Clode delves into the world of koalas to discover what’s behind the sweet face on thousands of postcards. From their megafaunal ancestors to the disastrous effects of colonisation, from remarkable conservation success in the 1920s to the devastating bushfires of 2019–2020, Clode tells the story of koalas and their complex relationship with humans. Sharing the latest scientific insights and myth-busting facts, all woven through Clode’s award-winning storytelling, Koala takes readers up into the trees to reveal the truth about this extraordinary animal and what must be done to ensure its survival. 
     
    ‘The tree-dwelling koala is one of Australia's most iconic species, yet it is threatened by habitat loss. Danielle Clode, a natural storyteller, has written an insightful book that deepens our understanding of this fascinating animal and highlights the urgency of its survival.’ —PETER WOHLLEBEN, author of The Hidden Life of Trees

    Are you a web designer interested in learning more about user experience? 
    Would you like to customize your website to suit your customers' needs and optimize their user experience? 
    Are you looking to get more details on the various resources used in optimizing user experience? 
    User experience, or UX, can be defined as any interaction with a service or a product. How the user feels, navigates, and completes the desired task are considered. UX design considers every component of the interaction. This principle can be applied to anything. The purpose of UX Design is to provide users with experiences that are simple, relevant, efficient, and enjoyable. 
    Consider heading to your favorite grocery store. You want to buy something, so you stroll down the aisles (how are they spaced?), listen to music (what sort of music and why?), inspect the shelf (is it made of wood, metal, or plastic?), interact with a cashier, and then leave. Everything in this easy and insignificant procedure is based on experience. You've interacted with an entire brand, including colors, feelings, music, arrangements, workers, and so on. Everything is based on personal experience. It is the same case with user experience in web design. 
    User experience has become an essential component of web design. 
    Why? 
    It is because web designers have realized that customers and other website users prefer using seamless platforms that are easy to use and learner-friendly.  
    Is it now easy for you to understand the need to enhance your user experience design skills as a web designer or developer? 
    What are you waiting for? 
    Grab a copy of this informative book, develop the user experience skills you need, and make your customers happy!

    Mental Health, specifically anxiety, is the number one health issue worldwide, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). This mind-illness is a tragic situation, but what is even more tragic is science, philosophy, and religion don't know what the mind is! How can you expect to alleviate anxiety when you don't understand the foundation? 
    Mind Refreshed broaches the crux of the matter. This book is a practical workbook following Sam Kneller's Mind-Body Problem Solved, where he explains what consciousness and mind are based on theology. Genesis 2:7 says God breathed neshama (the breath of life) into each human. This is consciousness. Job 32:8 reveals there's a second spirit in humans, the ruach. These two spirits work intimately to confer on humans their humanity. 
    Humanity can be summarized by the five traits of consciousness each human possesses: Reasoning, Purpose, Conduct, Socialization, and Rulership. When these traits are in alignment, there is a sense of peacefulness; the opposite leads to anxiety. 
    The key point to remember is that this mental makeup applies to all human beings regardless of race, beliefs, or gender. The solution to anxiety is Biblical, but it applies to all people because everyone possesses consciousness and a mind. Every person is diverse because each of us uses or misuses the above five traits differently. 
    Alleviating anxiety involves identifying the most manageable barriers to hurdle in these five areas of our lives and replacing them with doorways to walk through. The real question is, what are the doorways, and where do we find them? 
    Mind Refreshed reveals this. It is a practical workbook that will help you alleviate your anxiety slowly but surely and replace it with the peace you crave.
