Sinopsis

Waterways Choke Algae explores the often-underestimated role of detergents in eutrophication, the excessive enrichment of waterways that leads to harmful algal blooms. It reveals how common household cleaning products, particularly those containing phosphates and nitrates, contribute to this growing environmental problem.
The book highlights the link between increased detergent use since the mid-20th century and the rise of algal blooms, which deplete oxygen and harm aquatic life. It provides a comprehensive analysis, drawing from environmental reports and scientific studies, to demonstrate how detergents impact water quality and aquatic ecosystems.
The book examines the chemical composition of detergents and their breakdown in water, investigating how phosphates and nitrates fuel algal growth. It presents case studies of impacted waterways globally, showing the direct correlation between detergent use and algal bloom frequency.
The book stands out by focusing specifically on detergents, an often-overlooked source of water pollution compared to industrial and agricultural runoff. It progresses logically, beginning with the basics of eutrophication and detergent chemistry, then delving into the effects of specific chemicals and potential solutions like phosphate-free detergents and advanced wastewater treatment technologies.
Ultimately, Waterways Choke Algae advocates for a reevaluation of detergent formulations, regulatory policies, and consumer behavior to mitigate the devastating consequences of eutrophication. It offers valuable insights for environmental science students, policymakers, and concerned citizens seeking to understand and address the challenges facing our waterways, encouraging informed choices and actions towards a cleaner future.

The Hidden Fires - A Cairngorms...

Merryn Glover

Shortlisted for the Boardman Tasker Award for Mountain Literature 
 
 
 
Elemental, fierce, and full of wonder, the Cairngorm mountains are the high and rocky heart of Scotland. To know them would take forever, to love them demands a kind of courageous surrender. 
 
 
 
In The Hidden Fires, Merryn Glover undertakes that challenge with Nan Shepherd as companion and guiding light. Following in the footsteps and contours of The Living Mountain, she explores the same landscapes and themes as Shepherd's seminal work. This is a journey separated by time but unified by space and purpose, a conversation between two women across nearly a century that explores how entering the life of a mountain can illuminate our own. 
 
 
 
An Australian who grew up in the Himalayas, her early experiences of the Scottish hills and weather left her cold. But gradually acclimatizing and with an approach like Shepherd's, that is more mountain wandering than mountaineering, she discovers the spark that sets the hills and herself on fire. Through Glover's deepening encounter, the wild majesty and iridescence of the Cairngorms is revealed in this beautiful evocation of landscape, place, and identity.
