This book, in contrast, assesses the cultural consequences for Europe of the disappearance of the Soviet bloc. Adopting a multi-disciplinary approach, the book examines the new narratives about national, individual and European identities that have emerged in literature, theatre and other cultural media, investigates the impact of the re-unification of the continent on the mental landscape of Western Europe as well as Eastern Europe and Russia, and explores the new borders in thRoutledge contemporary Russia and Eastern Europe series ;44.Post-communismEuropeEuropeCivilization21st centuryElectronic books.Post-communism940.56Barta Peter I948784MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452668603321The fall of the iron curtain and the culture of Europe2144793UNINA04444nam 22005895 450 991074696830332120251009084923.03-031-34479-010.1007/978-3-031-34479-4(MiAaPQ)EBC30765485(Au-PeEL)EBL30765485(DE-He213)978-3-031-34479-4(OCoLC) 1402177813(PPN)27274008X(CKB)28443968400041(EXLCZ)992844396840004120230930d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierA Guide to a Healthier Planet Scientific Insights and Actionable Steps to Help Resolve Climate, Pollution and Biodiversity Issues /by Erlijn van Genuchten1st ed. 2023.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (xx, 178 pages) illustrations (some color)Includes index.Print version: van Genuchten, Erlijn A Guide to a Healthier Planet Cham : Springer,c2023 9783031344787 PartI.

How We Can Take Action.This book focuses on closing the gap between scientific insights on pressing environmental issues that do not often reach the general public, and putting that scientific knowledge in the hands of everyday people who can use these insights to take action against climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss. The goal of this work is to share fascinating facts about nature and sustainability to inspire taking action toward a healthier planet, and to provide ideas on how we can take action to solve environmental issues in an informed and easy-to-understand way. The chapters are sourced from the author's work published on medium.com/@ErlijnG with added content not available on medium.com. All chapters are based on open-access research articles covering various environmental issues and solutions that are not often disseminated in popular discourse but are nonetheless important for non-scientific audiences to understand and become familiar with. They allow readers to explore the broad range of concepts and issues and recognize the far-reaching consequences, and trigger the desire to take action. Also, each chapter provides concrete ideas of how we as individuals can take action in daily life to make a positive difference related to the issues described. The book is a multimodal work, as it includes images and videos that accompany the text.EcologyEnvironmental managementSustainabilityEnvironmental SciencesEnvironmental ManagementSustainabilityEcology.Environmental management.Sustainability.Environmental Sciences.Environmental Management.Sustainability.363.738746363.738746Van Genuchten Erlijn1431183MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910746968303321A Guide to a Healthier Planet3573297UNINA
