  Salton Sea The: The History of...

  In the list of popular American geological oddities and attractions, one sizeable phenomenon remains surprisingly unfamiliar to the average citizen. This may be due in part to its remote desert location, but perception of the Salton Sea in southern California is also laden with environmental concerns and is in a constant state of flux. The extensive body of inland saltwater hides a glorious commercial past and has served as an important wildlife preserve but approaches a seemingly inevitable crisis in the coming decade. 
  	The Salton Sea in not directly “on the way” to anything substantial or iconic, and is situated one hour’s drive from Palm Springs, 30 miles to the south of Indio, California on Highway 111. Its distance from Los Angeles and San Diego is approximately three hours driving time. The most recognizable natural phenomenon of Imperial and Riverside counties, it is surrounded by a rural area comprised of predominantly migrant farm workers and located in the southern Colorado desert area known as the Salton Trough, or Salton Sink. 
  	Despite being a natural occurrence filling and emptying intermittingly throughout history, the current presence of this large inland sea surrounded by sand was created accidentally in the early 20th century. First formed around 700 CE, the original and much larger version of the great inland lake was called Lake Cahuilla, connected to the Sea of Cortez. By the time the first Europeans arrived in the 16th century, the basin was completely dry as Don Juan Bautista led the first party across the basin’s expanse.  
  	The “accidental” creation of the lake’s modern version was a product of the rising Colorado that destroyed a crucial section of the canal system designed to help farmers. Millions of gallons of water were forced into the lowland area. Beyond the one breach, the entire volume of the river flowed into the Salton lowlands for nearly two years before engineers finally stopped it.

  Ways of Attending - How our...

  Attention is not just receptive, but actively creative of the world we inhabit. How we attend makes all the difference to the world we experience. And nowadays in the West we generally attend in a rather unusual way: governed by the narrowly focussed, target-driven left hemisphere of the brain.  
  Forget everything you thought you knew about the difference between the hemispheres, because it will be largely wrong. It is not what each hemisphere does – they are both involved in everything – but how it does it, that matters. And the prime difference between the brain hemispheres is the manner in which they attend. For reasons of survival we need one hemisphere (in humans and many animals, the left) to pay narrow attention to detail, to grab hold of things we need, while the other, the right, keeps an eye out for everything else. The result is that one hemisphere is good at utilising the world, the other better at understanding it.  
  Absent, present, detached, engaged, alienated, empathic, broad or narrow, sustained or piecemeal, attention has the power to alter whatever it meets. The play of attention can both create and destroy, but it never leaves its object unchanged. How you attend to something – or don’t attend to it – matters a very great deal. This book helps you to see what it is you may have been trained by our very unusual culture not to see.  
  Ways of Attending is expertly read by Mike Fraser. The cover design has been adapted from a Cajal original drawing, and used with permission of Legado Cajal (Madrid).  
  This audiobook was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. © 2018 Iain McGilchrist (P)

  Technology and the Environment -...

  The relationship between technology and the environment is increasingly becoming a focal point in discussions about sustainability and the future of our planet. As the world faces growing environmental challenges, technological innovation plays a crucial role in providing solutions. From renewable energy technologies to smart agricultural practices, technology is being leveraged to address some of the most pressing issues, including climate change, resource depletion, and pollution. However, while technology offers vast potential to mitigate environmental harm, it also raises questions about its impact on natural ecosystems and whether technological advancements always lead to positive outcomes for the environment. 
  In recent decades, the global focus on environmental sustainability has been paired with rapid technological development. The relationship between the two is dynamic—where technology can either exacerbate environmental issues or serve as the key to solving them. For example, the industrial revolution, powered by fossil fuels and machinery, contributed significantly to environmental degradation, yet the same technological advancements have now paved the way for cleaner, more sustainable solutions. This dual nature of technology’s impact on the environment makes it essential to examine how technology can be harnessed in ways that benefit rather than harm our ecosystems. 
  One of the key ways technology is addressing environmental challenges is through the development of renewable energy sources. Solar panels, wind turbines, and other green technologies offer cleaner alternatives to the traditional methods of power generation, reducing reliance on coal, oil, and natural gas. These renewable energy solutions have the potential to dramatically reduce carbon emissions, a leading cause of climate change.
