For millennia, elms shaped our landscape and our folklore; then they started dying.

Fifty years ago, a deadly pandemic raged across the world, destroying all in its path and outmanoeuvring scientists' desperate attempts to halt it. Dutch elm disease destroyed 25 million trees in the UK alone, altering our landscape forever. Few people now living have seen a mature elm tree, yet they once covered great swathes of Europe and North America and their legacy lives on in our mythology and folklore. The Lost Elms is a love letter to our vanished elms - the story of how we nearly lost an entire species, and the long, slow fight back. It tells the gripping story of the scientists desperately trying to halt the disease's relentless progress, and demonstrates the deadly globalisation can have on the environment, the importance of biosecurity and the intricate ways in which trees are interlinked with other species. Woven throughout is a lyrical look at the elm's central place in our history, culture and folklore - the elm features heavily in Greek, Celtic, Japanese, Germanic and Scandinavian mythology; as the 'Liberty Tree' it played a symbolic role in both the American and French Revolutions; and since ancient times the elm has held associations with death and the supernatural. However all is not lost: recent breakthroughs means some scientists now believe the elm is poised to make a comeback. This tree holds an important place in our history, and now might just offer the lesson for how we can save other disappearing species and our environment.

A Love Letter to Our Vanished Trees – and the Fight to Save Them

In recent years, the world’s atmospheric C02 concentration has averaged 420 ppm, exceeding the critical level of sustainable and safe operating space for humanity. Although there are various technologies and tools to mitigate these effects brought on by climate change, there is a need to systematize these technologies with the aid of decision tools to gain insights on how efficiently decarbonize the industrial sector in a large scale. Process Systems Engineering Tools for Industrial Decarbonization provides the current state-of-the-art mathematical tools for large-scale deployment of technologies underpinning low-carbon industrial processes and systems. This book will analyze various systematic approaches for planning, decision-making, and designing of systems for industrial decarbonization. It will provide both experts and readers with recent developments on methods that enable different technologies, such as CCUS, NETs, and other decarbonization techniques to be deployed in large-scale once the technology matures. These planning tools contributes to enable them to perform their expected contribution to sustainable and low-carbon future.

Studies in Comparative Energy and Environmental Politics

In an era of intensified geopolitics and of national-level political gridlock, subnational governments can potentially play an essential role in combating global climate change. Can subnational governments introduce and sustain climate policy actions through changes in political leadership? Why are some local areas doing better than others in delivering on their climate goals?

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.

This book considers a subject of crucial importance to all, the future of the planet that we live on. As the world's population continues to grow, the ability to sustain and improve the lives of the earth's inhabitants has incurred tremendous costs. Together all must look for ways to sustain the planet going forward while carefully and fairly managing crucial resources and environmental impact of our actions. We asked high school age students from around the world to weigh in on what they see as the planet's opportunities and challenges going forward, offering their solutions on how to best embrace or mitigate what lies ahead. The book considers the next generation's perspective on what science might hold for the planet's future, including examples of how science is already positioned in many instances to enhance and help sustain our world.
