Wildlife in the Anthropocene : Conservation after Nature
Elephants rarely breed in captivity and are not considered domesticated, yet they interact with people regularly and adapt to various environments.Too social and sagacious to be objects, too strange to be human, too captive to truly be wild, but too wild to be domesticated—where do elephants fall in our understanding of nature?In Wildlife in the Anthropocene, Jamie Lorimer argues that the idea of nature as a pure and timeless place characterized by the absence of humans has come to an end.But life goes on. Wildlife inhabits everywhere and is on the move; Lorimer proposes the concept of wildlife as a replacement for nature.Offering a thorough appraisal of the Anthropocene—an era in which human actions affect and influence all life and all systems on our planet— Lorimer unpacks its implications for changing definitions of nature and the politics of wildlife conservation.Wildlife in the Anthropocene examines rewilding, the impacts of wildlife films, human relationships with charismatic species, and urban wildlife.Analyzing scientific papers, policy documents, and popular media, as well as a decade of fieldwork, Lorimer explores the new interconnections between science, politics, and neoliberal capitalism that the Anthropocene demands of wildlife conservation.Imagining conservation in a world where humans are geological actors entangled within and responsible for powerful, unstable, and unpredictable planetary forces, this work nurtures a future environmentalism that is more hopeful and democratic.

What is an elliptical orbit?
An elliptical orbit is a type of orbit in which an object, such as a planet or satellite, follows an oval-shaped path around another object, typically a star or planet. In an elliptical orbit, the object's distance from the central body varies, with the closest point being the perigee and the farthest point being the apogee. The shape of the ellipse is determined by the gravitational pull of the central body and the object's velocity. Elliptical orbits are common in our solar system, with planets like Earth and Mars following elliptical paths around the Sun.
-
What happens to the orbit?
The orbit of a celestial body can change due to various factors such as gravitational interactions with other objects, the presence of a third body, or the effects of general relativity. These changes can result in the orbit becoming more elliptical, shifting to a different plane, or even being ejected from its current orbit altogether. The specific changes to the orbit depend on the specific circumstances and forces at play.
-
Are there Dark Orbit hacks?
It is not recommended to use hacks or cheats in Dark Orbit or any other online game as it violates the game's terms of service and can result in penalties such as account suspension or banning. Using hacks can also create an unfair advantage over other players, disrupting the balance of the game. It is best to play the game fairly and enjoy the experience as intended by the developers.
-
From when does the orbit begin?
The orbit begins as soon as an object is launched into space and starts moving around a larger celestial body, such as a planet or a star. Once the object is in motion and under the influence of the larger body's gravitational pull, it follows a curved path known as an orbit. The orbit continues until an external force, such as atmospheric drag or gravitational perturbations, alters its trajectory.

Renewable Energy and Wildlife Conservation
Brings together disparate conversations about wildlife conservation and renewable energy, suggesting ways these two critical fields can work hand in hand. Renewable energy is often termed simply "green energy," but its effects on wildlife and other forms of biodiversity can be quite complex.While capturing renewable resources like wind, solar, and energy from biomass can require more land than fossil fuel production, potentially displacing wildlife habitat, renewable energy infrastructure can also create habitat and promote species health when thoughtfully implemented. The authors of Renewable Energy and Wildlife Conservation argue that in order to achieve a balanced plan for addressing these two crucially important sustainability issues, our actions at the nexus of these fields must be directed by current scientific information related to the ecological effects of renewable energy production.Synthesizing an extensive, rapidly growing base of research and insights from practitioners into a single, comprehensive resource, contributors to this volume• describe processes to generate renewable energy, focusing on the Big Four renewables—wind, bioenergy, solar energy, and hydroelectric power• review the documented effects of renewable energy production on wildlife and wildlife habitats• consider current and future policy directives, suggesting ways industrial-scale renewables production can be developed to minimize harm to wildlife populations• explain recent advances in renewable power technologies• identify urgent research needs at the intersection of renewables and wildlife conservationRelevant to policy makers and industry professionals—many of whom believe renewables are the best path forward as the world seeks to meet its expanding energy needs—and wildlife conservationists—many of whom are alarmed at the rate of renewables-related habitat conversion—this detailed book culminates with a chapter underscoring emerging opportunities in renewable energy ecology.

Can you easily explain the orbit?
Yes, the orbit is the curved path that an object takes as it moves around another object in space, such as a planet orbiting a star. The shape of the orbit is typically elliptical, with the object moving faster when it is closer to the object it is orbiting and slower when it is farther away. The orbit is determined by the gravitational pull between the two objects, with the more massive object at the center of the orbit. The orbit can be described using mathematical equations and is a fundamental concept in understanding the motion of celestial bodies in space.

How does the Earth's orbit work?
The Earth's orbit is an elliptical path around the Sun, with the Sun located at one of the foci of the ellipse. The Earth travels along this orbit at an average speed of about 67,000 miles per hour. The Earth's orbit is tilted at an angle of about 23.5 degrees relative to its orbital plane, which is why we experience seasons. The combination of the Earth's orbital path and its tilt results in the changing seasons and the varying lengths of days throughout the year.
-
What is Earth's orbit number 3?
Earth's orbit number 3 refers to the third orbit of the Earth around the Sun. This orbit takes approximately 365.25 days to complete, which is why we have a leap year every four years to account for the extra quarter day. Earth's orbit number 3 is significant because it is the orbit that determines our calendar year and the changing of the seasons.
-
Could the sun orbit other planets?
No, the sun cannot orbit other planets. The sun is the central star of our solar system and all the planets, including Earth, orbit around it due to its immense gravitational pull. The sun's mass and gravitational force are what keep the planets in their orbits, so it is not possible for the sun to orbit any of the planets.
