Stanley Rice documents the many ways in which plants do this by making oxygen, regulating the greenhouse effect, controlling floods, and producing all the food in the world. Plants also create natural habitats for all organisms in the world. With illustrations and clear writing for non-specialists, Green Planet helps general readers realize that if we are to rescue the Earth from environmental disaster, we must protect wild plants. Beginning with an overview of how human civilization has altered the face of the Earth, particularly by the destruction of forests, the book details the startling consequences of these actions. Rice provides compelling reasons for government officials, economic leaders, and the public to support efforts to save threatened and endangered plants. Global campaigns to solve environmental problems with plants, such as the development of green roofs and the Green Belt Movementùa women's organization in Kenya that empowers communities worldwide to protect the environmentùshow readers that efforts to save wild plants can be successful and beneficial to the economic well-being of nations. Through current scientific evidence, readers see that plants are vital to the ecological health of our planet and understand what can be done to lead to a betterùand greenerùfuture Benefits of plants: Help modulate greenhouse gases Produce almost all oxygen in the air Create cool shade that reduces energy costs Prevent floods, droughts, and soil erosion Produce all of the food in the world Create and preserve soil Create natural habitats Heal the landscape after natural and human disasters Plant ecologyVegetation and climatePlants, UsefulElectronic books.Plant ecology.Vegetation and climate.Plants, Useful.581.7Rice Stanley A.1957-1055421MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454560303321Green planet2488805UNINA01910nam 22004453 450 991014899310332120230808200243.097837364172673736417268(CKB)3710000000924626(MiAaPQ)EBC4734648(Au-PeEL)EBL4734648(CaPaEBR)ebr11297577(OCoLC)963719076(BIP)111975836(BIP)61021488(EXLCZ)99371000000092462620210901d2016 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierA Modest Proposal Bestsellers and famous Books1st ed.Dinslaken :anboco,2016.©2016.1 online resource (10 pages)9781549880377 1549880373 Intro -- A MODEST PROPOSAL -- For preventing the children of poor people in Ireland, from being a burden on their parents or country, and for making them beneficial to the publick. -- by Dr. Jonathan Swift -- 1729.A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People From Being a Burthen to Their Parents or Country, and for Making Them Beneficial to the Publick, commonly referred to as A Modest Proposal, is a Juvenalian satirical essay written and published anonymously by Jonathan Swift in 1729. Swift suggests that the impoverished Irish might ease their economic troubles by selling their children as food for rich gentlemen and ladies. This satirical hyperbole mocks heartless attitudes towards the poor, as well as British policy toward the Irish in general.Swift Jonathan154535MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910148993103321A modest proposal2173353UNINA
