Descrizione libro Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. By exploring the regenerative systems that help nature survive in the face of environmental change and stress, The Rescue Effect optimistically reveals how we can use this natural resiliency to help reverse the effects of climate change. As the world continues to grapple with intensifying climate change, the situation often feels hopeless. In his groundbreaking debut, Michael Mehta Webster proves that hope can be found in nature itself. The natural world has a series of systems - rescue effects - that automatically activate to help organisms when their environment changes. The Rescue Effect illustrates how we can use this natural resiliency to help reverse climate change. The Rescue Effect details what scientists are finding as they dig deeper into how nature rescues species on its own. These rescue effects are revealed in compelling stories of species that are adapting to the changing world - including tigers in the jungles of India, cichlid fish in the great rift lakes of Africa, and mountain pygmy-possums in the snowy mountaintops of southeastern Australia. At the centre of each story, people play a significant role. Rescuing our environment is not passive, and Webster shows that it takes people working in concert with nature to reverse climate change. Combining rigorous research and gripping storytelling, The Rescue Effect provides the cautious optimism we need to confront our greatest challenge. AUTHOR: Michael Mehta Webster is an expert in ecology, conservation, philanthropy, and non-profit management. His research interests focus on how organisms and ecosystems adapt to environmental change, how this information can be translated into effective conservation strategies, and the practical and ethical dilemmas that arise along the way. As an executive director of a conservation organisation, program officer at a leading environmental foundation, and academic scientist, he has led efforts to connect cutting edge science to the management of species and ecosystems in the wild. SELLING POINTS: . This is the cautiously optimistic look at climate change we have been waiting for. It is newsworthy, perhaps even controversial, simply for the fact that it offers some measure of hope by highlighting ways that nature is already acting to rescue itself . This data-driven, research-based book blends hard science with accessible narrative, taking readers around the globe to the habitats and species where rescue effects are taking hold .
