Polluted Air

Tradutor A AI

Sinopse

Polluted Air examines the pervasive issue of air pollution, asserting that it poses a significant threat to public health globally, stemming from industrial practices, transportation, and individual behaviors. Despite increased awareness, effective strategies for reducing exposure remain underdeveloped.

 
For instance, did you know that air pollution disproportionately affects low-income communities, raising critical social justice issues? Or that pollutants are categorized as primary (emitted directly) and secondary (formed through atmospheric reactions)?

 
The book explores the historical and scientific context of air pollution, tracing its evolution from localized incidents to a global crisis. It's structured into three sections, dissecting the causes (industrial emissions, vehicular exhaust), investigating health effects (respiratory, cardiovascular), and exploring mitigation strategies (emissions control technologies, policy interventions). The evidence is drawn from scientific literature and government reports. Each chapter concludes with actionable steps.

 
Written in an accessible style, Polluted Air is suitable for a broad audience, including students, policymakers, and concerned citizens. The book fairly addresses debates regarding the contribution of different sources and the effectiveness of mitigation strategies. It empowers readers to become informed advocates for cleaner air and healthier communities.

Footprint of a Heart - 18000...

Shayla Paradeis

*This Recording Includes Five Original Songs* 
Imagine having all of you needs reduced to the things you can't live without; food, water, and shelter. 
In Footprint of a Heart, Shayla Paradeis, whose trail name is Kiddo, ventures off the path of musical theater at age 21 and moves from Manhattan to Montana. Trading tap shoes for hiking boots, she sculpts a life outdoors as a long-distance hiker. By age 34, she hiked the Appalachian, Pacific Crest, and Continental Divide Trails, the Haute Route in the Alps, and the Te Araroa across New Zealand. As well as thousands of joyful miles running across the land of her dreams, Glacier National Park. All without a smart phone. 
Kiddo shares the trailside moments of five long journeys, including barren deserts, windy ridges above tree line, ocean tides in estuaries, narrow spaces between the painted lines of highways and guardrails, and countless peaks, passes, meadows, and valleys. Her ventures take her through swarms of bugs, knee-deep mud, every kind of precipitation imaginable, and the threat of rattlesnakes, bears, charging bulls, and one angry mama turkey. 
Journeys are often more internal than external. As she walks, she learns that counting miles can be a self-measurement as dangerous as body-image or money. The need to connect is the true north. With an openness taught through the trees, she experiences a fulfillment she never dreamed possible. Trails are no longer a thing to do, they're a place to be.
