Water Quality and Agriculture
Water pollution control has been a top environmental policy priority of the world’s most developed countries for decades, and the focus of significant regulation and public and private spending. Yet, significant water quality problems remain, and trends for some pollutants are in the wrong direction. This book addresses the economics of water pollution control and water pollution control policy in agriculture, with an aim towards providing students, environmental policy analysts, and other environmental professionals with economic concepts and tools essential to understanding the problem and crafting solutions that can be effective and efficient. The book will also examine existing policie...

Modeling, Dynamics, Optimization and Bioeconomics III
The research and review papers presented in this volume provide an overview of the main issues, findings, and open questions in cutting-edge research on the fields of modeling, optimization and dynamics and their applications to biology, economics, energy, finance, industry, physics and psychology. Given the scientific relevance of the innovative applications and emerging issues they address, the contributions to this volume, written by some of the world’s leading experts in mathematics, economics and other applied sciences, will be seminal to future research developments and will spark future works and collaborations. The majority of the papers presented in this volume were written by participants of the 4th International Conference on Dynamics, Games and Science: Decision Models in a Complex Economy (DGS IV), held at the National Distance Education University (UNED) in Madrid, Spain in June 2016 and of the 8th Berkeley Bioeconomy Conference: The Future of Biofuels, held at the UC Berkeley Alumni House in April 2015.
Enhancing Security, Sustainability and Resilience in Energy, Food and Water
This book looks at the ways that energy, food, and water help to create connections between sustainability and security. The concept of security is in our current societies increasingly connected with sustainability, which seeks to ensure that we as humans are able to live and prosper on this planet now and in the future. The concepts of energy security, food security, and water security—used separately or together—manifest the burgeoning linkages between security and sustainability. This book brings together ten scientific articles that look at different aspects of security, sustainability, and resilience with an emphasis on energy, food, and/or water in the context of Finland and Europe. Together, the articles portray a rich picture on the diverse linkages between both energy, food, and water, and between security and sustainability. In sum, the articles and related preface conclude that ensuring sustainable security—or secure sustainability—requires systemic, structured processes that link the policies and actors in these two important but still distant fields.
Transitioning to Sustainable Life on Land
Sustainable Life on Land, the fifteenth UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 15), calls for the protection, restoration and promotion of the sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems. Among others, it requires societies to sustainably manage forests, halt and reverse land degradation, combat desertification, and halt biodiversity loss. Despite the fact that protection of terrestrial ecosystems is on the rise worldwide and forest loss has slowed, the recent IPBES report concluded that “nature is declining globally at rates unprecedented in human history”. Consequently, the United Nations General Assembly recently declared 2021–2030 the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. There is no dou...

Diskokuningatar Eini
Diskokuningatar Eini kertoo kasvutarinan arasta lapsesta ja kiltiksi kesytetystä nuoresta vahvaksi naiseksi. Matkan varrelle mahtuu onnen hetkiä ja kipeitä vaiheita, joista Eini Pajumäki puhuu tässä kirjassa ensimmäistä kertaa. Laulaja Einin ura on kestänyt jo 44 vuotta. Pellon Orajärven kylässä vaatimattomissa oloissa kasvanut tyttö oli aluksi niin ujo, että hän uskaltautui laulamaan vain ison tv-tuolin takana. 14-vuotiaana hän alkoi esiintyä lapsibändin solistina Lapin tanssilavoilla ja hiihtokeskuksissa, 18-vuotiaasta asti hän on johtanut bändiä ja tehnyt yli 8 000 keikkaa. Eini on aina pitänyt elämän omissa käsissään pelosta välittämättä. On kuvaavaa, että...
