Designed to present realit.;_es of action thatman may take anywhere in the world to help preserve the limitedresources of this planet, the series has drawn on the thoughts and adviceof many concerned ecologists and economic specialists.Numerous aspects of individual, corporate, and governmental impacton the quality of the total environment are examined. Focusing onman as a part of the environment rather than apart from it, the emphasis ison the environmental impact, good and bad, of man's interaction withnature and what the cost is, whether it be pollution, trade-off,or benefit. Thirteen units have been developed to consider these environmental problems, solutions, and evaluations. Each unit begins witha perspective of the problem or situation followed bya summary of the broadcast information. To encourage personal action andinvolvement, many suggestions are given to answer the question "what can I do ? ". Completing the unit are sources for further information--books, articles, films, and organizations. (BL) U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.

Nyquist Executive Deputy Commissioner of Education Gordon M. Ambach AssociateCommissioner for Cultural Education John G. Boughton Chief, Bureauof MassCommunications Bernarr Cooper ACKNCWLEDGMENTS "Man Builds - Man Destroys" was conceived as a series of action and information presentations on the need for environmental change. Designed to present realities of action that nen may take anywhere in the world, to help preserve the limited resources of this planet, the series has drawn on the thought, the well-intentioned advice, and the dedication of many of the world's concerned ecologists. It would not he possible to give recognition to all those who have dedicated professional thought and personal effort to the series, thus far. As usual in any media effort at the United Nations, Michael Hayward, Chief of Visual Services, is the organizational focus for this massive production effort. For excellent administration of the production of the series, we are indebted to Peter Hollander who was and continues to be the EXecutive Producer. The initial content planning and delineation of focused approach was a major contribution from three leading scientists of the New York State Museum and Science Service:D. L. Collins, State entanologist, and chief scientist, Biological Survey; E. M. Reilly, Jr., senior scientist, zoology; and James F. Davis, State geologist, and chief scientist. To the many experts on environmental need who so willingly appear and lend their thought and effort to enlarging the understanding of all of us, we give special thanks.As is always his custan, William J. Hetzer, associate in Educational Television for the New York State Education Department, has ably seen to much of the finite detail which has made the distribution of this series a possibility. Bernarr Cooper Chief Bureau of Mass annunicaticns iii 4 UNITED NATIONS PRODUCTIONSTAFF FOR MAN BUILDS- MAN DESTROYS George Movshon Chief, Television and FilmSection Peter Hollander Executive Producer INDIVIDUAL PROGRAM PRODUCERS Boris Holtzman Joseph O'Brien Osborn Segerberg, Jr. Claire Taplin iv Preface The realization of man's total involvement with the biosphere, his love -hate relationship with the natural environment is a concept which, in less than a decade, has experienced a quantum jump from total unawareness and lack of concern to a state of individual nail biting, national debate (sometimes querulous), and restrictive legislation, and now international parleys and agreements. With little or no population control on a worldwide basis, we have learned that what appeared to be isolated instances or localized phenomena of specialized pollution have coalesced into a total degradation of global ecosystems - an accumulation of abuse which must be reversed if we are to survive.The shock of this realization has brought forth a mixed bag of reactions, mostly disorganized and nonconstructive. These range from the wry cynicism of the natural scientists, who saw this situation developing, but whose warnings were ignored so long as they applied to birds or marshes or water tables, to the hysterical frenzy of the environ- mental demagogue, the purveyor of misinformation and overreaction.Doansaying is as ineffectual for the total good as was the previous indifference. Environmental education is the means by which lay citizens can learn the fundamental truths of the Man/Nature interdependence, what has happened to throw this out of balance, and what can rationally be done to cope with the situation - or correct it. It also leads to a greater appreciation of the wonders of the natural system, of which man is only a part. A citizen sophisticated about the environment can weigh and balance, supporting measures which are for the good of his community, his region, his world, and rejecting those which are hasty, ill-considered, or actually counterproductive to the well-being of man in the current life style to which his particular culture and eamumny have broughthim. This leads to the further realization that one nation's freedom of actionmay work to the environmental detriment of another nation, and thatdrastic corrective measures taken by one developed nation may be completelyunsuitable fora developing nation which has neither themoney nor the skilled technologyto act other than in its an desperate self-interest. This was the crux of the recent Stockholm Conference on the environment.A worldwide cooperative effort is required - the haves must help the havenots, eccnomically and technologically, on behalfof a viable global existence. This series of video tapes, Nan Builds- Man Destroys," is a contribution to environmental education.With examples drawn franacross the world, filmed on location, and with the cooperationof knowledgeable experts in the conplex of environmental and economicspecialties, practically every aspect of individual, corporate, and governmental irrpcton the quality of the total environment is emnined. The emphasisis on the environmental impact, good and bad, of man's interaction withnature and what the cost is, whether it be pollution, "trade off," or benefit. This series assumes the viewer to be thoughtful, perceptive, and open minded- a viewer truly receptive to completeenvironmental education. In my opinion, this is the most informative and balancedvideo presentation of environmental problems, solutions, andevaluations which has yet been produced for general use. When viewed with the guidanceof Osborn Segerberg's perceptive guidebook, this series makesan outstanding and un- biased contribution to man's understanding of hisplace and role on this "Blue Planet."

The third, at position C, correctly perceives a cone.The one difference among these observers is perspective. Even without changing physical position, we have been able to change our perspective by standing on the shoulders of those who have gone before us.At one time, men assumed that the earth was the center of the universe.

  • The Piccards and Their Submarines. Title
    The Piccards and their Submarines Title 185 I first met Professor Auguste Piccard in the summer of 1936 in Santander, where the University of Madrid had organised a summer course for non-Spanish students. We were housed in an old royal castle on the rocky shore of the North Spanish coast with a delightful private bay for our daily swim. There I saw a very tall professor in a minute swimming trunk with astonishing spectacles, one of his unsung inventions. They are now commonplace, small attachable sun filters, to be turned up when not needed. I had never seen these before, although others may have used them earlier. Professor Piccard was already world famous for his balloon ascents into the strato- sphere, 15781 m in 1931, and in the following year to a height of 16940 m. I never saw him again, he died in 1962, aged 78 years. Many years later in Switzerland, I met his son Jacques Piccard. [See Title 1041 The record balloon ascents were successful because Piccard had constructed an air-tight spherical gondola of aluminium and an over-sized balloon, only slightly filled on the ground, but fully inflated at high altitudes. Based on the same principle, he invented later a submarine, consisting of a pressure resistant steel sphere, at- tached to a lighter-than-water gasoline filled ‘buoyant balloon’. This ‘allowed him, with heavy weights magnetically attached to his gondola, to descend to record depths of water. He called it a ‘bathyscaphe’ and named it The Trieste. His son Jacques, like his father a physicist-engineer, helped him in the design and construction of the bathyscaphe, and together they descended in The Trieste to a depth of 3099 m near the Island of Ponza in Italy.

  • Chapter 3: the Rise of the Antinuclear Power Movement: 1957 to 1989
    Chapter 3 THE RISE OF THE ANTINUCLEAR POWER MOVEMENT 1957 TO 1989 In this chapter I trace the development and circulation of antinuclear struggles of the last 40 years. What we will see is a pattern of new sectors of the class (e.g., women, native Americans, and Labor) joining the movement over the course of that long cycle of struggles. Those new sectors would remain autonomous, which would clearly place the movement within the autonomist Marxist model. Furthermore, it is precisely the widening of the class composition that has made the antinuclear movement the most successful social movement of the 1970s and 1980s. Although that widening has been impressive, as we will see in chapter 5, it did not go far enough, leaving out certain sectors of the class. Since its beginnings in the 1950s, opposition to the civilian nuclear power program has gone through three distinct phases of one cycle of struggles.(1) Phase 1 —1957 to 1967— was a period marked by sporadic opposition to specific nuclear plants. Phase 2 —1968 to 1975— was a period marked by a concern for the environmental impact of nuclear power plants, which led to a critique of all aspects of nuclear power. Moreover, the legal and the political systems were widely used to achieve demands. And Phase 3 —1977 to the present— has been a period marked by the use of direct action and civil disobedience by protesters whose goals have been to shut down all nuclear power plants. 3.1 The First Phase of the Struggles: 1957 to 1967 Opposition to nuclear energy first emerged shortly after the atomic bomb was built.

Dissertation Advisor: Charles Rosenberg Jennifer Christine Thomson From Wilderness to the Toxic Environment: Health in American Environmental Politics, 1945-Present Abstract This dissertation joins the history of science and medicine with environmental history to explore the language of health in environmental politics. Today, in government policy briefs and mission statements of environmental non-profits, newspaper editorials and activist journals, claims about the health of the planet and its human and non-human inhabitants abound. Yet despite this rhetorical ubiquity, modern environmental politics are ideologically and organizationally fractured along the themes of whose health is at stake and how that health should be protected.

It was 2005, 10 years after his death, and Hurricane Katrina had just shredded the veneer that covered racism in America. when we were growing up, our parents imbued us with a strong sense of personal responsibility. we wanted to fight injustice; we just didn’t know what path to take. I think both Emily and I were afraid of trying to live up to our father’s accomplishments. It was in a small, dusty Texas town that we found our path. In 1999, an unlawful drug sting imprisoned more than 20 percent of Tulia’s African American population. The injustice of the incar - cerations shocked us, and the fury and eloquence of family members left behind moved us beyond sympathy to action. while our father lived in front of news cameras, we found our place behind the lens. our film, Tulia, Texas: Scenes from the Filmmakers Emily Kunstler and Sarah Kunstler. Photo courtesy of Maddy Miller Drug War helped exonerate 46 people. one day when we were driving around Tulia, hunting leads and interviews, Emily turned to me. “I think I could be happy doing this for the rest of my life,” she said, giving voice to something we had both been thinking.

  • Bathyscaphe Trieste by Dennis Bryant
    Royal Belgian Institute of Marine Engineers Bathyscaphe Trieste by Dennis Bryant A revolutionary diving craft, leading the way for future generations. The first ultra‐deep diving manned vessel was conceived, designed, and constructed by August Piccard, a Swiss physicist in 1947. He called the craft a bathyscaph, coined by combining the Greek words bathos, meaning deep, and scaphos, meaning ship. In 1952, he began construction of a more advanced version. Because it was built largely in the city of Trieste, he named it TRIESTE when it was launched on August 1, 1953. It consisted of a small pressure sphere about seven feet in diameter attached to the underside of roughly rectangular float chamber that was 59 feet long and eleven feet wide. The whole thing looked distinctly unseaworthy. That is because the craft was never designed to transit on the surface of the water. Rather, its sole purpose was dive deep and return to the surface. The float chamber was filled with 22,000 gallons of gasoline. This flammable liquid was selected for two reasons: first, it was lighter than water; and second, it was nearly incompressible, even at extreme pressure. The float chamber also was fitted with two ballast silos filled with 18,000 pounds of magnetic iron pellets. These pellets were to be released when the two‐ man crew wanted to ascend to the surface. Having no means of propulsion when on the surface, the Trieste had to be brought to a point almost directly above its target and then allowed to descend. The craft made various dives in the Mediterranean before it was purchased by the US Navy in 1958 for the sum or $250,000.
