Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'Greenland 2050' is a visionary exploration of the world's largest island as it confronts the profound impacts and challenges of a warming planet. Written by Dr. Roberto Rodriguez, the book offers an interdisciplinary examination of how Greenland, its ecology, economy, and society, are adapting and evolving in response to climate change.The narrative embarks with a comprehensive overview of Greenland's unique environmental history, from its icy past to its more recentand rapidglacial retreats. Dr. Rodriguez paints a vivid picture of an island in flux, where rising temperatures have led to increased glacial melt and consequential sea-level rise.Yet, as the ice recedes, new pathways open. The author delves into the economic and geopolitical opportunities emerging for Greenland. The potential for untapped mineral resources, new shipping routes, and expanded fisheries signal a potential economic boom. But these are not without risks. The book addresses these opportunities' ecological, political, and cultural challenges, including potential conflicts over resource rights, threats to indigenous lifestyles, and the ecological impacts of increased human activity.Central to 'Greenland 2050' are the voices of Greenlanders themselves. Through intimate interviews and personal accounts, readers gain insight into the lives of those at the forefront of this changing landscape. From Inuit hunters witnessing altered migration patterns of marine mammals to entrepreneurs establishing new tourism ventures, their stories weave a tapestry of resilience, innovation, and deep-rooted cultural identity.The book's final chapters cast an eye to the future, examining strategies being implemented to address looming challenges. From innovative sustainable energy projects to collaborative international research initiatives, Greenland has become a microcosm for how humanity can confront and navigate the realities of a post-global warming world. 'Greenland 2050' serves as both a meticulous case study and a broader commentary on the global challenges of climate change.…
