Sinopse

Urban Air Pollution explores the critical issue of air quality in our cities, where a large percentage of the global population resides. The book investigates the sources of major pollutants—such as particulate matter from vehicle emissions and industrial processes—and their profound impacts on public health, including respiratory illnesses and cardiovascular diseases. A key insight is the spatial variability of pollution within urban areas, highlighting how certain populations are disproportionately affected. The book takes an interdisciplinary approach, integrating perspectives from earth sciences, geography, environmental science, and public health to provide a comprehensive understanding. It examines various strategies for improving air quality, from emission control technologies to sustainable transportation, and emphasizes the importance of informed decision-making. Using established scientific research and diverse data sources, the book progresses through chapters that analyze the problem, assess its impact, and propose evidence-based solutions while utilizing geographic information systems (GIS) to map pollution hotspots. This resource is valuable because it equips readers with the knowledge to advocate for cleaner air and understand the complexities of balancing economic development with environmental protection. It is aimed at students, researchers, policymakers, and citizens concerned about environmental health and the urban environment.

    Mountains are among the most awe-inspiring features of the Earth's landscape, rising as towering peaks that shape weather patterns, influence ecosystems, and define the natural borders of continents. Their formation is a complex process driven by immense geological forces acting over millions of years. The primary mechanisms behind mountain building include tectonic activity, volcanic processes, and the gradual effects of erosion and uplift. 
    One of the most significant processes responsible for mountain formation is tectonic activity, particularly through folding and faulting. The Earth's crust is divided into massive plates that float atop the semi-molten mantle. When these plates collide, the immense pressure causes the crust to buckle and fold, resulting in the formation of fold mountains such as the Himalayas and the Alps. These ranges continue to rise as the plates press against each other, making them some of the youngest and most geologically active mountains in the world. Fault-block mountains, on the other hand, form when tectonic forces cause large sections of the Earth's crust to break and shift along faults. The Sierra Nevada in North America is an example of a fault-block mountain range created by the movement of these fractured rock masses. 
    Another major contributor to mountain formation is volcanic activity. When magma from beneath the Earth's surface erupts through cracks in the crust, it cools and solidifies, gradually building up into towering volcanic mountains. Over successive eruptions, these formations can grow into massive peaks such as Mount Fuji in Japan or Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa. Volcanic mountains can form along plate boundaries, particularly in subduction zones where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, or in hotspot regions

    This is part of the “Lightworker's Log Book Series” that came into existence in 2008, via soul promptings and after a series of life circumstances designed to awaken the author to humanity's true state. Previous publications consisted of choosing titles, arranging content, and taking vast amounts of time to compile an entire book. These days, books are easily birthed by merely tapping into greater aspects of what may be referred to as the author’s ever-changing consciousness. Publications are now compiled in this way by many more authors than ever before. This book is just one example of material stemming from what may be referred to as a more evolved consciousness experiencing and expressing in a field of decreasing duality. 
    As segments of humanity become increasingly chaotic while others experience greater states of consciousness, there comes a time when one asks, “Are we there yet?” STUDIES IN CONSCIOUSNESS and The Breath Of One is designed to explain in, hopefully, easily understood terms the vast separation from Source that humanity chose to experience. It is not meant to create further separations of Consciousness by delving into and examining other planets, galaxies or universes, but to explain how humanity got to the point where it is in the later portion of the twenty-first century, and how it will rise above it. STUDIES IN CONSCIOUSNESS and The Breath Of One began to surface during weeks of daily, multiple deluges of water in September 2025. 
    “Water is the wilderness, the calling, the rally of the soul.” 
    This book contains what the author refers to as “heavy-duty information,” and as does water contains light codes, which necessitate short bursts of reading material to be assimilated chapter by chapter, allowing time between them for full incorporation. 
    The return to Source may not seem instantaneous, but it is already achieved, for separation is impossible in the grand scheme of Source. 
    Read this book to see that it rings true and speaks for itself.

    A pioneering scientist presents a mind-expanding account of the sociogenomics revolution, which promises to upend everything we know about human development. 
     
     
     
    Sociogenomics brings together advances in molecular genetics and traditional social and behavioral science. The key tool is the polygenic index, which allows us to analyze DNA to measure a child's genetic potential. Today, we can estimate a child's adult height, how far they will go in school, and their weight as an adult—all from a cheek swab, finger prick, or vial of saliva. Dalton Conley and other researchers are using this new science to shed light on the ways in which genes shape our world, influencing how each person both creates and responds to the environment around them. Conley reveals a world where children's DNA influences the nurture they extract from their parents; the genes of our schoolmates affect our likelihood of smoking as much as our own DNA does; and spouses' genes influence each other's moods and behaviors. 
     
     
     
    The Social Genome presents a nuanced, powerful perspective on individual potential and social dynamics and raises critical ethical questions about how we will navigate a future where we have access to far more genetic information than ever before.
