Summary

Ocean Current Systems explores the critical role of ocean circulation in shaping our planet's climate and distributing vital resources. It examines how thermohaline circulation, driven by temperature and salinity differences, acts as a global conveyor belt, influencing regional climates. Wind-driven currents also play a crucial role in surface circulation, impacting nutrient distribution and marine ecosystems. Understanding these dynamics is essential due to the significant influence of ocean currents on global climate patterns.

 
This book traces the evolution of ocean current research, highlighting the importance of a comprehensive understanding for predicting future climate scenarios and addressing challenges like sea-level rise. Specific chapters delve into major systems such as the Gulf Stream and Pacific Ocean gyres. By synthesizing published research and integrating insights from climate models, the book offers a holistic view of ocean current behavior and their potential to trigger abrupt climate shifts, making it a valuable resource for students, researchers, and policymakers.

    There once may have been 250,000 miles of stone walls in America's Northeast, stretching farther than the distance to the moon. And even though most are crumbling today, they contain a magnificent scientific and cultural story. 
     
     
     
    Stone walls tell nothing less than the story of how New England was formed, and in Robert Thorson's hands they live and breathe. Millions of years ago, New England's stones belonged to ancient mountains thrust up by prehistoric collisions between continents. Buried again over centuries by forest and soil buildup, the stones gradually worked their way back to the surface, only to become impediments to the farmers cultivating the land in the eighteenth century, who piled them into "linear landfills," a place to hold the stones. Usually the biggest investment on a farm, often exceeding that of the land and buildings combined, stone walls became a defining element of the Northeast's landscape, and a symbol of the shift to an agricultural economy. 
     
     
     
    Stone walls layer time like Russian dolls, their smallest elements reflecting the longest spans, and Thorson urges us to study them, for each stone has its own story. Linking geological history to the early American experience, Stone by Stone presents a fascinating picture of the land the Pilgrims settled, allowing us to see and understand it with new eyes.

    The care of creation is the responsibility of all Christians. 
      
    Join Sequola Dawson in her insightful exploration of death rituals as she examines funerals, memorials, and burial practices, urging us to take ownership and recognize the vital interdependence between humanity, the earth, and all living organisms, advocating for a more ecologically responsible approach to caring for creation. 
      
    The Green Funeral introduces readers to evolving attitudes toward death, the death care industry, and our faith. Dawson not only delves into burial traditions within the African American community but outlines innovative practices suited for a new generation of multicultural churchgoers and those who do not identify with any religious tradition. 
      
    Dawson sheds light on the often-ignored economics behind the funeral industry, challenging us to consider the implications of "putting money in the ground." Many of us are unprepared for the death of a loved one, leaving us to ponder who bears the burden of caring for the deceased. With thousands of dollars spent on burials, Dawson argues for a more responsible approach—one that acknowledges the environmental impact of traditional practices and seeks to honor our loved ones without compromising the land they leave behind. 
      
    Dawson's unique perspective on death stems from her experiences in academia, the military, family life, and engineering, as well as her journey as a cancer survivor. She artfully weaves together the languages of all these worlds collectively raising a voice for better creation care—even in death. 
      
    "In The Green Funeral: Honoring the Environment While Beautifying Funeral Practices, Rev. Sequola Dawson speaks to the black church, but invites us all to contemplate our last impact on God's good earth. Let us all prayerfully consider returning to the dust from which we came as nourishment to the sacred land."—Rev. Carol L. Devine, Director of Blessed Tomorrow

    Zion was made by water working against stone.
    
    Layer by layer, uplift raised the plateau and the river deepened its path. Cliffs emerged. Hanging gardens found water. Life occupied narrow bands between heat, flood, rock, and height. Human communities moved through and named a country later transformed by settlement, roads, tourism, and preservation.
    
    William Stanek's The Living Zion Biography tells that larger story.
    
    It follows sandstone and river, Indigenous homeland and changing names, sanctuary and development, access and danger, protection and the challenge of caring for a canyon loved by millions.
    
    Zion's walls appear immovable. Its biography reveals a place created through movement-and still being changed by water, gravity, climate, people, and time.
