Sinopse

Wind Ships explores the exciting resurgence of wind-assisted propulsion (WAPS) in the maritime industry, offering a path towards sustainable shipping. It examines how modern cargo ships can harness wind power to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and minimize the environmental impact of global trade. One intriguing insight is the potential for significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, improving air quality in port cities. The book uniquely balances technological feasibility, environmental benefits, and economic viability, presenting a comprehensive view for industry professionals and environmental advocates alike.

 
The book investigates various WAPS designs, from rotor sails to kite sails, and analyzes their performance through real-world case studies. It quantifies emissions reductions and assesses the economic factors driving WAPS adoption, offering a framework for evaluating return on investment.

 
By starting with the fundamental principles of wind-assisted propulsion, dedicating chapters to specific WAPS designs, and culminating with an analysis of economic factors, the book provides a clear progression of information.

 
The book argues that wind-assisted propulsion is a viable component of a sustainable future by demonstrating how innovative engineering and advanced materials are transforming wind power into a competitive alternative to conventional fuel sources.

    Wild Waters - The Magic of...

    'I often sit by the bank of the small river that flows through our farm in County Wicklow, fascinated by its many moods ... Getting to know a river is like reading the story of a person's life ...  from its young energetic stages in the hills to the slower-moving mature river, through to the tranquil water of lakes and finally to its resting place in the sea.'
    Richard Nairn is an ecologist who has been visiting waterways around Ireland for over half a century, fascinated by how they sustain and enrich our lives. Here he sets out on a year-long adventure to explore every stretch and tributary of the Avonmore River, which runs through Co. Wicklow. From source to sea, he immerses himself in the wildlife, archaeology, history and people connected to the river. Travelling to explore more of Ireland's rivers, lakes, wet woodlands, ponds and canals, Richard details encounters with dragonflies, crayfish, otters and great flocks of migratory waterbirds, and finds himself awestruck by the sense of a lost wilderness they convey.
    With our waterways now under serious threat, this is a love letter to Ireland's rivers and lakes, and a reminder of what we stand to lose.
    'Opens the window into a watery world. Personal yet panoramic.' Colin Stafford-Johnson, filmmaker.

    Horses are valuable teachers and healers, and give us powerful lessons in how to be effective leaders. In this 2022 interview with Justine Willis Toms, Carolyn Resnick reveals the secrets of how a horse gains and maintains its leadership of a herd of wild horses. What makes a good leader in a stallion of a herd of wild horses can be used for human leadership as well: it does not lead by coercion or waging battles, but creates unity, harmony, and respect including the personal space of others.  
    Carolyn Resnick is the founder of The Resnick Method of Horsemanship and offers many online courses, clinics, retreats, and certification opportunities that create a magical connection with horses using rituals that are innate to the horse. She is a master horse communicator who grew up with horses and spent three summers of her childhood gradually becoming accepted into a community of wild horses, culminating in her ability to ride a lead mare bareback and without a bridle. She is the author of Naked Liberty: Memoirs of My Childhood, Guided by Passion, Educated by Wild Horses (Amigo Publications, Inc. 2005).

    A hilarious romp through the past, present, and future of Green politics in Canada. 
    "Incisive, frequently hilarious!" - Lean Out with Tara Headley 
    "I burst out loud laughing." - Brian Lilley, Full Comment Podcast 
    "Mark writes candidly and hilariously about the state of Green politics in Canada." - Joseph Planta, TheCommentary.ca 
    "It's great... Some of the details, my god, they make working in that party sound like living in a house of mirrors... Ouch." - Arshy Mann, The Hatchet 
    Mark Leiren-Young, a lifelong environmentalist and Leacock Medal-winning humour writer, journeys to the heart of greenness to reveal the toxic sludge of Canadian eco-politics. 
    For a brief moment in 2019, it looked like Elizabeth May’s Green wave could change Canadian politics and finally wield real power in Ottawa. During that brief moment, Leiren-Young was a campaign manager in a riding the federal Greens were sure to win. He quit on discovering that there was only one thing stopping the Green Party of Canada from changing the country’s electoral landscape forever: the Green Party of Canada. 
    The Greens were not ready for prime time. Or late night. Or four a.m., after last call, when voters stop being picky and are desperate for anyone with a nice smile. Once the spotlight hit, the Greens wilted, never to recover. 
    A comedic take on the sorry state of Canada’s environmental politics, Greener Than Thou explores how the Green party has repeatedly shot itself in the foot, blasted out its kneecaps, and done everything in its power to ensure it will never have a say in decisions that shape the future of our planet.
