Otto lezioni sul restauro forestale. E-book. Formato PDF Roberto Mercurio - Youcanprint, 2016 -
Una larga parte delle foreste italiane è degradata, questo causa la perdita della funzionalità degli ecosistemi e della capacità di fornire ecoservizi, con ripercussioni sulla qualità dell’ambiente, del paesaggio e della salute umana. Il restauro delle foreste degradate è il nuovo orizzonte delle scienze forestali di questo secolo. Il testo porta all’attenzione di studenti, ricercatori e professionisti il tema del restauro forestale in termini teoretici e pratico-applicativi.
Waterless farming. The solution to grow plants without water: save youself time, money and effort!. E-book. Formato PDF Francis Freeman - Youcanprint, 2016 -
Would you like to grow plants without water? Would you like to save time,money and effort? Would you like to obtain more tasty and nutritive vegetables, farming in an organic way? Well, "Waterless Farming" is just the right book for you! In this book Francis Freeman explains exactly how to grow plants COMPLETELY avoiding any sort of irrigation. The new techniques described by the author are easy to implement for every kind offarmer and every type of soil, ensuring – at the same time - an outstanding effectiveness. The language adopted is easily comprehensible and devoid of technical terms, preferring a concreteand pragmatic approach, able to make us get excellent results right from the start. But not only that. In fact the techniques illustrated by Freeman also allow – as stated in the subtitle – to save time, money and effort, because they revolutionize soil too, allowing to reduce the usual working. Thus the techniques exposed should be definitely discovered and exploited by the largest number of people, since the benefits deriving from their application are many!
Chemical agriculture and pollinators: signs of a Planet in danger. E-book. Formato PDF Giuseppe Zicari - Youcanprint, 2023 -
Bees, these extraordinary creatures that have inhabited the Planet for over 100 million years, are the common thread that tells the story of various ecological challenges such as the reduction of biodiversity, climate change, soil degradation, and energy transition. When the most presumptuous species on the Planet interferes with the course of nature, it causes serious damage, altering the possibility of survival of non-humans, such as the pollinators, without understanding that this is actually a self-destructive ecocide. Paradoxically, agriculture, which is one of the activities most closely dependent on a healthy biosphere, is one of the major causes of irreversible and, therefore, unsustainable changes such as global warming and the extinction of pollinators from which it derives its benefits and wealth. The massive use of fossil fuels, the distribution of poisons such as pesticides (which are persistent, toxic, and bioaccumulative), the loss of fertility in monocultures of plants selected to satisfy economic needs (e.g. genetically modified organisms), are some of the main causes of an ecologically unsustainable food production system. There is no more time, we cannot afford to waste economic resources such as those dedicated to the production of agrofuels (maize cultivated to obtain methane, biogas) and genetically modified plants (e.g. those made resistant to herbicides); we must take a step backwards in the way we manage natural resources. One species can only thrive if all the others are healthy, we must embrace this principle. This book tries to show a different vision of the World we are building, a story full of backstories and full of underestimated dangers.
