Van schoolbioloog tot duurzame duizendpoot: Verleden, heden en toekomst van natuur- en milieueducatie
ISBN: 9789086863310 / Holenderski / Twarda / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Natuur- en milieueducatie kent een lange traditie. In dit boek brengen vier auteurs die traditie in beeld. Ze verhalen over verleden, heden en toekomst, en reflecteren op bestuur en beleid, inhoud en organisatie. Natuur- en milieueducatie veranderde maar is deels hetzelfde gebleven. Vroeger leerde je op school buiten spelen, rollen door het gras, kleine beestjes vangen, schooltuintjes harken, honing proeven, slootje springen, les krijgen van de schoolbioloog. Natuur hoorde erbij, natuur- en milieueducatie hoorde erbij. Toen en nu. Vandaag de dag is de schoolbioloog een duurzame duizendpoot....

Medeverantwoordelijkheid voor natuur
ISBN: 9789076998107 / Holenderski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Tot nu toe hebben bij de vermaatschappelijking van natuur vooral de wensen voor verbreding van natuur centraal gestaan. De rijksoverheid wil echter ook de aandacht voor de bijdragen aan natuurbehoud verbreden en de verantwoordelijkheid hiervoor mede bij andere overheden en bij particulieren leggen. Dit streven naar medeverantwoordelijkheid vindt langzaam, maar nog niet voldoende weerklank. Voor veel particulieren is natuur een consumptiegoed. Een bijdrage in geld lijkt gemakkelijker geleverd dan adequaat of stimulerend gedrag ten gunste van natuur. Daarbij blijft medeverantwoordelijkheid...

Bioterrorisme: dichterbij dan u denkt!
ISBN: 9789076998312 / Holenderski / Miękka / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Bioterrorisme is een veel besproken onderwerp. In 1995 werd een zenuwgas (sarin) verspreid in de ondergrondse van Tokio en in 2001 werd anthrax in de Verenigde Staten in postpakketten gevonden. Beide gebeurtenissen hebben tot grote commotie geleid. Er wordt gevreesd dat het effect van deze stoffen mild is vergeleken met wat terroristen werkelijk kunnen aanrichten. Als terroristen met de huidige moleculaire technieken in staat zijn biowapens te maken die infectieus en dodelijk zijn, kunnen de gevolgen desastreus zijn. Anthrax zou bijvoorbeeld nog gevaarlijker kunnen worden als deze bacterie...

Under a Green Sky: Global Warming, the Mass Extinctions of the Past, and What They Can Tell Us about Our Future
ISBN: 9780061137921 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. More than 200 million years ago, a cataclysmic event known as the Permian extinction destroyed more than 90% of all species and nearly 97% of all living things. Its origins have long been a puzzle for paleontologists, and during the 1990s and the early part of this century a great battle was fought between those who thought that death had come from above and those who thought something more complicated was at work. Paleontologist Peter D. Ward, fresh from helping prove that an asteroid had killed the dinosaurs, turned to the Permian problem, and he has come to a stunning conclusion....
