The fluctuation and change of the climate are issues that humans are concerned about. As a result of the frequent droughts and floods, the livelihoods of billions of people who are dependent on land for the majority of their requirements are in grave danger. The economy of the entire world is being adversely affected on a regular basis as a result of extreme events such as droughts and floods, cold and heat waves, forest fires, landslides, and other similar occurrences. Even though they are not tied to meteorological disasters, natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions have the potential to alter the chemical composition of the atmosphere due to their impact.

The Uncommon Life is a magnificent cry to all to rise and break the shackles of lethargy, corruption, poverty and lies that bind us to a mediocre life. It calls on one to recognize their true self for what it is-a pure thing that craves love, peace, harmony and joy. Political and social angst, the enduring love for the family and country and the sadness and joy of life are expressed beautifully and vividly in this slim volume of poems. Each poem, in a unique way, brings catharsis and healing while taking the reader on a journey to the outer landscape of nature and one's soul. The poet appeals for a life that is beyond the mundane. His love for his motherland and his family permeate every tho...
The limitation of fossil fuels has challenged scientists and engineers to search for alternative energy resources that can meet future energy demand. Renewable Energy System Design is a valuable reference focusing on engineering, design, and operating principles that engineers can follow in order to successfully design more robust and efficient renewable energy systems. Written by Dr. Ziyad Salameh, an expert with over thirty years of teaching, research, and design experience, Renewable Energy System Design provides readers with the "nuts and bolts" of photovoltaic, wind energy, and hybrid wind/PV systems. It explores renewable energy storage devices with an emphasis on batteries and fuel ce...
Friendship as Social Justice Activism brings together academics and activists to have essential conversations about friendship, love, and desire as kinetics for social justice movements. The contributors featured here come from across the globe and are all involved in diverse movements, including LGBTQ rights, intimate-partner violence, addiction recovery, housing, migrant, labor, and environmental activism. Each essay narrates how living and organizing within friendship circles offers new ways of dreaming and struggling for social justice. Recent scholarship in different disciplinary fields as well as activist literature have brought attention to the political possibilities within friendship. The essays, memoirs, poems, and artwork in Friendship as Social Justice Activism address these political possibilities within the context of gender, sexuality, and economic justice movements.
