Summary

Arctic Whales Balance explores the intricate relationship between Chukchi whaling, indigenous rights, and Arctic conservation. It examines how centuries-old cultural traditions intersect with modern environmental law and political science, particularly in the context of the Arctic ecosystem. The book highlights the critical role of whaling in the cultural heritage of the Chukchi people, while also addressing the legal and political frameworks, such as the International Whaling Commission and the Marine Mammal Protection Act, that govern these practices.

 
One intriguing fact is how deeply embedded whaling is in the Chukchi's spiritual connection to their environment, providing not just sustenance but also cultural identity.

 
The book uniquely advocates for a balanced approach, integrating indigenous knowledge with scientific data for effective co-management. It argues that this collaborative method is essential for sustaining both the Chukchi's whaling traditions and preserving healthy whale populations. The approach involves ethnographic studies, legal analyses, and scientific data to present a comprehensive view.

 
Beginning with the historical context and moving through legal frameworks and scientific research, the book culminates in strategies for future management, underlining the importance of local ecological knowledge. This offers a fresh perspective on resolving conflicts between conservation and cultural preservation.

Science for a Green New Deal -...

Eric A. Davidson

Since it was first proposed in the US House of Representatives, the Green New Deal has been hotly debated. The intent was not simply to fight climate change or address a specific environmental concern, but rather to tackle how climate change and other environmental challenges affect the economy, the vulnerable, and social justice—and vice versa. 
 
 
 
In Science for a Green New Deal, Eric Davidson dissects this legislative resolution. He also shows how green new deal thinking offers a framework for a convergence of the natural sciences, social science, economics, and community engagement to develop holistic policy solutions to the most pressing issues of our day. Davidson weaves the case for linkages among multiple global crises, including a pandemic that has reversed progress on fighting poverty and hunger, an acceleration of climate change, and a renewed awareness of profound social injustices highlighted by the Black Lives Matter movement. 
 
 
 
Illustrating these points with his personal life experiences as a child growing up in Montana and as a famed researcher leading a large scientific society, Davidson relates these complex challenges to our everyday lives and decision-making. Science for a Green New Deal is a realistic and optimistic look at how we can attain a more sustainable, prosperous, and just future.
