Sinossi

Solar Power Farming explores the transformative potential of solar energy for small-scale farming, advocating for its integration as a means to boost sustainability and economic viability. The book emphasizes the use of photovoltaic (PV) systems to power farm infrastructure, solar-powered irrigation, and enhanced crop storage, all of which address the critical challenges of reducing costs, ensuring reliable energy, and combating climate change.

 
Historically, small farms have relied on costly and environmentally damaging energy sources; this book argues that solar energy offers a scalable solution that augments traditional methods, thereby increasing efficiency and lessening environmental impact.

 
The book progresses from introducing the fundamentals of solar energy to exploring practical applications, like powering farm buildings and machinery. It dedicates a significant portion to solar water pumping and irrigation systems, detailing technologies and case studies, and then examines solar energy in greenhouses and for crop drying.

 
Real-world examples and case studies demonstrate practical applications, providing guidance for farmers considering solar integration. You'll learn how solar energy can extend growing seasons and reduce post-harvest losses, offering a comprehensive analysis of the economic and environmental impacts of solar adoption on small farms.

 
The book's unique value lies in its practical, solutions-oriented approach, providing actionable information for farmers, policymakers, and researchers. By linking agricultural science with renewable energy engineering and environmental economics, Solar Power Farming offers a holistic view of how solar energy can reshape small-scale agriculture, making it a vital resource for anyone interested in sustainable agriculture and renewable energy.

The Voyage of Sorcerer II - The...

J. Craig Venter, David Ewing Duncan

Upon completing his historic work on the Human Genome Project, J. Craig Venter declared that he would sequence the genetic code of all life on earth. Thus began a fifteen-year quest to collect DNA from the world's oldest and most abundant form of life: microbes. Boarding the Sorcerer II, a 100-foot sailboat turned research vessel, Venter traveled over 65,000 miles around the globe to sample ocean water and the microscopic life within. 
 
 
 
In The Voyage of Sorcerer II, Venter and science writer David Ewing Duncan tell the remarkable story of these expeditions and of the momentous discoveries that ensued—of plant-like bacteria that get their energy from the sun, proteins that metabolize vast amounts of hydrogen, and microbes whose genes shield them from ultraviolet light. The result was a massive library of millions of unknown genes, thousands of unseen protein families, and new lineages of bacteria that revealed the unimaginable complexity of life on earth. Yet despite this exquisite diversity, Venter encountered sobering reminders of how human activity is disturbing the delicate microbial ecosystem that nurtures life on earth. In the face of unprecedented climate change, Venter and Duncan show how we can harness the microbial genome to develop alternative sources of energy, food, and medicine that might ultimately avert our destruction.

The Miracle of the Black Leg -...

Patricia J. Williams

At the heart of "Wrongful Birth" is a lawsuit in which a white couple who use a sperm bank sue when their child "comes out Black." And "Hot Cheeto Girl" examines the way that algorithms give rise to new predictive categories of human assortment, layered with market-inflected cages of assigned destiny. 
 
 
 
The Miracle of the Black Leg offers a brilliant meditation on the tricky place where law, science, ethics, and cultural slippage collide.
