Earthscan Conservation and Development

This book focuses on human-elephant encounters and relationships, showing how these have been politicized and pose challenges for rural development and conservation. It draws from a sustained ethnography of human-elephant conflict and co-operation in India to address key questions at the interface of biodiversity conservation, animal and development geographies.

Well Integrity for Abandoned Well Re-entries addresses well integrity and operational risks that accompany the benefits of using an old and abandoned wellbore by providing it a second chance to perform. Re-entering an abandoned well provides new life to an old wellbore by reducing the need for drilling new wells. This, in turn, reduces emissions footprint, drilling waste, and costs for some wells. The book covers well integrity basics, abandoned wells, analysis required for re-entry, potential uses for re-entered wells (including applications for EOR, CO2 EOR with sequestration, natural gas storage, geothermal heat recovery, and much more.) Packed with case studies and tips for practical application, this book provides readers with an understanding of re-entry techniques, pitfalls, and diagnostics to determine well integrity. This novel text digs deep into the process and benefits of re-entering abandoned wells in support of sustainability.

European Ethnobotany

<div>Ethnobiology is the study of the dynamic relationship between plants, animals, people, and the environment. Academic and applied interests include ethnobotany, ethnozoology, linguistics, paleoethnobotany, zooarchaeology, ethnoecology, and many others. The field lies at a dynamic intersection between the social and biological sciences. The major contribution from the biological sciences has come from economic botany, which has a rich historical and scientific tradition. </div><div>
</div><div>The Balkans MRW (online and print) Volume will cover this European Macroregion. The content will focus on the ethnobotany of wild plants in this Macroregion and it will be first developed as an online site and, later, when all of the planned topics have been covered for this specific volume, printed in a hard copy version. The online site will remain live and be available for updates (with new monographs [if not covered initially due to lack of research]). </div><div>
</div><div>The content will be divided into sections covering countries (or groups of countries), based on plant diversity and not necessarily political or national boundaries. The Balkans volume will have an Introduction (4,000-6,000 words); 50 200 plant monographs (10 to maximum 50 monographs per country) with each monograph having a length of ~1,500 words (with references), plus 2-4 photographs. To further define the content, the plant monographs will be divided into five major categories (food; medicine/cosmetic; veterinary; handicraft plants; and ritual/folkloric uses) and include notes. The number of the monographs in every category will be negotiated depending on the advances of the ethnobotanical research in each specific country, or group of countries. The main criteria for the inclusion of a given plant will be its cultural salience within a given country (assessed by the Volume Editor). References will be given at the end of the Introduction and each monograph.

Ethnobotany of the Balkans

Climate change-possibly the most pressing and difficult problem facing life on earth today-raises a series of questions that are fundamentally philosophical in nature. Some are: --Is skeptcism about climate change warranted? --Why does scientific consensus about global warming matter? --Who should pay-those who are causing the most damage or those who will bear the greatest burden-to mitigate the effects of climate change? Scientists and policy makers who grapple with these questions need the insights and contexts a philosophical analysis offers. And students and researchers in philosophy need to better know the scientific literature and political issues before offering ethical and philosophical commentary. With formal graduate training in the study of atmospheric science, a Ph.D. in philosophy, and a publication and teaching record that bridges the two areas, Wendy Parker adroitly addresses these and similar questions in, Understanding Climate Change: Science, Philosophy, and Policy. The book brings together a body of scattered research on these issues, but also breaks new ground, providing for a wide range of students and researchers a firmer footing on which to understand fully the scientific and policy issues related to climate change. The book is the first of its kind: a synoptic and coherent account-written for students and scholars in the humanities and the sciences--of the most salient philosophical issues related to our changing global climate.

As water reuse technologies help to reduce the exploitation of freshwater resources, they also help alleviate water demand for drinking, manufacturing, sanitation, leisure purposes, and land use, such as agriculture.

The architect is a principal target in all types and levels of construction disputes. This book provides informal and practical advice explained in simple terms so that practicing architects can avoid the pitfalls inherent in the architect's role throughout the construction process. Written by a practicing architect who has acted as expert witness in over 200 cases, the book covers the key areas of vulnerability - design, design co-ordination, late information, inspection and certification. Using detailed case studies of built projects, the author identifies the law, how the problems arose and what remedies were put in place to resolve the issues. This is a book no architect can afford not to read.

The development of lasers emitting ultrafast pulses with durations of femtoseconds or picoseconds has opened up a range of spectroscopic applications in many disciplines. Based largely on the author's graduate and training courses, this book offers a complete overview of the topic. After reviewing the unique properties of short pulses, it explores laser systems that create them as well as a range of novel spectroscopic applications and techniques. The text also includes online supporting material, such animations, computer programs, and applets.

Routledge Studies in Environmental Communication and Media

This book explores twenty-first century environment-themed advertising with a global reach in relation to three key emerging persuasive themes: governance, morality and transnational rhetoric. Adopting a social semiotic approach, and exploring key examples including Greenpeace's "Everything is NOT Awesome" brandjacking advert, Volkswagen's "Think Blue" campaign and Unilever's "Why Bring a Child Into This World?" advert, Alexander puts forward a number of observations about the ideological character and function of environmental advertising as a new form of transnational persuasion.

Environmental Communication is a growing area of academic enquiry. But, whilst there are key texts on environmental communication and new texts on environment-themed media, there is, as yet, no book specifically devoted to "green" (environment themed) advertising. Filling this lacuna, this book explores twenty-first century environment-themed advertising with a global reach in relation to three key emerging persuasive themes: governance, morality and transnational rhetoric. Such environment-themed advertising with transnational reach, addressed to transnational publics and produced by global actors (from NGOs to multinationals to the United Nations to celebrities), is now a significant form of environmental communication. This book considers that form and its meanings; the "environmental imaginary" it builds in the minds of its publics, its ideological and emotional landscapes, and its limitations. Adopting a social semiotic approach, and exploring key examples including Greenpeace’s "Everything is NOT Awesome" brandjacking advert, Volkswagen’s "Think Blue" campaign and Unilever’s "Why Bring a Child Into This World?" advert, Alexander puts forward a number of observations about the ideological character and function of environmental advertising as a new form of transnational persuasion. The first book to explore the social and symbolic significance of "green" advertising as a transnational form of environmental communication, this book will be of great relevance to scholars and students with an interest in this growing field.
