Sinossi

"Solar vs Wind" delivers a comprehensive analysis of the two dominant renewable energy technologies transforming our power landscape. Through a systematic examination of technical capabilities, environmental impacts, and economic factors, the book provides crucial insights for energy planners, homeowners, and policymakers deciding between solar panels and wind turbines for specific applications.The book builds its analysis from fundamental physics principles, explaining how photovoltaic cells convert sunlight into electricity and how wind turbines harness kinetic energy, before progressing to real-world applications. Readers discover fascinating contrasts: solar panels typically require more raw materials but have minimal moving parts, while wind turbines use fewer materials but demand more maintenance.The text leverages decades of field data and engineering studies, incorporating GIS mapping to illustrate optimal deployment locations for each technology based on geographic and climatic conditions. Rather than advocating for one solution, the book emphasizes how local conditions and specific requirements determine the most effective choice.Through detailed case studies from various regions, readers learn how factors such as latitude, weather patterns, and energy prices influence technology selection. The accessible yet technical writing style, supported by clear diagrams and real-world examples, makes complex concepts understandable for readers with varying backgrounds, while maintaining the depth necessary for informed decision-making in renewable energy deployment.

    In 2018, lumps of frozen soil, collected from the bottom of the world's first deep ice core and lost for decades, reappeared in Denmark. When geologist Paul Bierman and his team first melted a piece of this unique material, they were shocked to find perfectly preserved leaves, twigs, and moss. That observation led them to a startling discovery: Greenland's ice sheet had melted naturally before, about 400,000 years ago. 
     
     
     
    In When the Ice Is Gone, Bierman traces the story of this extraordinary finding, revealing how it radically changes our understanding of the Earth and its climate. A longtime researcher in Greenland, he begins with a brief history of the island, both human and geological. For the origins of ice coring, Bierman brings us to Camp Century, a US military base built inside Greenland's ice sheet, where engineers first drilled through mile-thick ice and into the frozen soil beneath. Decades later, a few feet of that long-frozen earth would reveal its secrets—ancient warmth and melted ice. 
     
     
     
    Changes in Greenland reverberate around the world, with ice melting high in the arctic affecting people everywhere. Bierman explores how losing Greenland's ice will catalyze devastating events if we don't change course and address climate change now.

    What the Bears Know - How I...

    In the late 1990s, the town of Mammoth Lakes, California, hired Steve Searles as a hunter to cull half its troublesome bear population. But as he began to prepare for the grim task, the bears soon won him over, and Searles realized there had to be a better way. He soon developed nonlethal tactics to control their behavior and overpopulation that heralded a landmark moment in the care and handling of the American black bear. But change was not without its challenges. To some, his success was dismissed due to his lack of formal academic training. Yet Searles never wavered in his commitment, and eventually became not just local folk hero but a nationally recognized expert. This high school dropout saved not just the bears, but, in many ways, his community. 
     
     
     
    In a tradition that runs from John Muir to Bear Grylls, Searles finds a fellowship with nature and a deeper meaning in the world of bears. Do bears understand things we don't? Are they dialed in to some greater natural force? Unlike us, bears waste little time on unreasonable fears. Bears are fully in the moment. They have an inner peace that seems to offset their power and strength. That may explain why no other animal on the planet is as revered as the bear. As Searles shares his remarkable knowledge and we become immersed in the ursine world, you'll never look at bears or nature the same way again.
