Free Download Greenhouse Warming and Nuclear Hazards: A Series of Essays and Research Papers By Peter Fong
2005 | 300 Pages | ISBN: 9812564225 | PDF | 12 MB
This book is a rebuttal of the common belief that grave environmental consequences are associated with the issues of global warming and nuclear hazards. Firstly, it is argued that after 25 years of research no-one has actually found evidence for greenhouse warming. Instead, the heat has caused the evaporation of ocean water to increase cloud coverage, reflecting more sunlight away, cooling down the earth and nullifying the effects of greenhouse warming. The author describes this revolution in climatology through new scientific discoveries that solve the longstanding mystery of the ice ages and explain the enigma of the missing greenhouse heat. The solution of the ice age problem is a far most important scientific accomplishment. In the second part of the book, the author argues that the effects of low-level radiation can be beneficial rather than damaging. Evidence is presented proving that low-level radiation in the US from both natural sources and human activities such as nuclear bombs tests actually reduces death rates from cancer and other diseases and increases longevity. In the Indian State of Kerala life span has been shown to increase 10.5 years due to the natural radiation from thorium mines. The book proposes that primitive life forms must have developed immune systems to counter the harmful effects of natural radioactivity and that low-level radiation from nuclear waste may one day be transformed from trash to treasure. Nature has always been kind to humans. But our self-aggrandizing species has mistaken blessings for disasters and spoiled the otherwise splendid 20th century.

Free Download Thawing: Permafrost Permafrost Carbon in a Warming Arctic by J. van Huissteden
English | 2020 |,EPUB | 520 Pages | ISBN : 3030313786 | 97.66 MB
This book provides a cross-disciplinary overview of permafrost and the carbon cycle by providing an introduction into the geographical distribution of permafrost, with a focus on the distribution of permafrost and its soil carbon reservoirs. The chapters explain the basic physical properties and processes of permafrost soils: ice, mineral and organic components, and how these interact with climate, vegetation and geomorphological processes. In particular, the book covers the role of the large quantities of ice in many permafrost soils which are crucial to understanding carbon cycle processes.

Free Download Nationalism vs. Nature: Warming and War
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031360559 | 503 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 5 MB
Developing an original approach, this book examines how both nationalism and climate change threaten humankind with future catastrophes, arguing that humanity is on a fast track to a dystopian future unless significant changes are implemented. While the world warms, wars driven by nationalism may lead to worldwide devastation, with humankind being caught between two existential threats of its own creation. The author explains how both nationalism and climate change originate from human ingenuity and can only be answered by human cooperation.

Free Download Global Warming: Truth and Consequences: A Primer
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031270223 | 150 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 4 MB
This book is an up-to-date guidebook for persons who are unfamiliar with the relevant details but want to know what anthropogenic global warming and its repercussions entail. The first chapter presents background material on the earth’s climate system and some of the global warming rejecters’ claims and their refutations, including the evidence underlying the reality of anthropogenic global warming. The next chapter examines in detail many of global warming’s contemporaneous and deleterious repercussions, while the final one considers some future scenarios and their likely consequences, some of which are from the latest IPCC Reports. It also considers a number of the proposed steps to avoid these consequences, and the problems of implementing them.
