Introduces key terms, quantitative and qualitative research, debates, and histories for Environmental and Nature Studies Understandings of “nature” have expanded and changed, but the word has not lost importance at any level of discourse: it continues to hold a key place in conversations surrounding thought, ethics, and aesthetics. Nowhere is this more evident than in the interdisciplinary field of environmental studies. Keywords for Environmental Studies analyzes the central terms and debates currently structuring the most exciting research in and across environmental studies, including the environmental humanities, environmental social sciences, sustainability sciences, and the sciences of nature. Sixty essays from humanists, social scientists, and scientists, each written about a single term, reveal the broad range of quantitative and qualitative approaches critical to the state of the field today. From “ecotourism” to “ecoterrorism,” from “genome” to “species,” this accessible volume illustrates the ways in which scholars are collaborating across disciplinary boundaries to reach shared understandings of key issues—such as extreme weather events or increasing global environmental inequities—in order to facilitate the pursuit of broad collective goals and actions. This book underscores the crucial realization that every discipline has a stake in the central environmental questions of our time, and that interdisciplinary conversations not only enhance, but are requisite to environmental studies today.

Описание:
In a sleepy town "smack dab" in the middle of America, Abby and Luke rescue a stray dog seemingly in need of shelter.
The real journey begins when the dog reveals to the reader his big secret: that he is faking and doesn't need rescuing at all. He has launched a "Master Plan" that comes to life as he communicates telepathically to other dogs in need of finding new "Masters," by coming to Abby's yard for help. While unbeknownst to the kids, he is secretly training to be the bonafide "Dog Rescuers".
Romeo and Chanel arrive in Abby's yard, with troubles to overcome. With the help of a strange cat, they discover hidden talents and become assets to the "Plan B" - mode of operation.

Описание:
Zeus was a real dog that I rescued from a farmer's field near Nashville, Tennessee. He was left in a field. The farmer had abandoned him, and I noticed he was limping. For days, I held up hamburgers through a fence in order gain his trust. I told Zeus, "If you get in my car you will live on a beautiful lake and have two little furry friends to guard and protect. And, I promise I will never hurt you." He listened, and finally, hobbled into my little car. I quickly took him to a vet. The vet even stayed open late for us. Zeus had many ticks on him and was skinny and very afraid of people. But, I instantly fell in love with him and took him home to be my fur baby.
Zeus quickly became best friends with my little Maltese terriers named Romeo and Sammy. Romeo followed Zeus, his new hero, everywhere, and desired to be a big dog like Zeus. Romeo, though he was small, had a huge personality and inspired the character Kiddo.
Only two months after rescuing Zeus, our house caught on fire. Zeus was the one who woke up, barked and jumped at our back door and the back doors of two more homes that also caught on fire. Because of Zeus, all humans and animals got out safely. He received the Humane Society of America's "Hero Dog Award." He was a bonafide hero. He was like an angel, and he lived a good, long, healthy life. He is now in Heaven, and I believe my Big White Dog in the Sky, is looking after all the other little dogs and cats in at 'The Rainbow Bridge."
I've always felt that Zeus, Romeo and Sammy were communicating to each other unbeknownst to me.

Описание:
Silent Spring is a watershed moment in the history of environmentalism, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. In synthesizing a jumble of scientific and medical information into a coherent argument, Carson successfully challenged major chemical industries and the idea that modern societies could and should exert mastery over nature at any cost. Her critique remains salient today.
This book provides the first in-depth analysis, contextualisation and overview of Silent Spring, a critical work in the history of environmentalism, surveying its lasting impact on the environmentalist movement in the last fifty years.
