The Darkness Manifesto urges us to cherish darkness for the sake of the environment, our own wellbeing, and all life on earth. Entire ecosystems rely on natural darkness to flourish, from bats and keen-eyed owls capering across the starry sky to the bioluminescent creatures of the deep. But constant illumination has made light pollution a major threat. By extending our day, humans have disrupted the circadian rhythms necessary to sustain all living things. The Darkness Manifesto lifts night's veil to reveal the domino effect of damage we inflict by keeping the lights on: insects failing to reproduce, plants left unpollinated, countless hunting and migratory patterns eroded. Eye-opening and ultimately encouraging, this book offers simple steps that can benefit ourselves and the planet. 'Powerful ... A clarion call for change' New Statesman 'A pleasure to read ... A paean of praise for natural darkness' Financial Times, Book of the Year 'A must-read for all who have an interest in the health of our planet' Russell Foster, author of Life Time

A measure of the success of a journal is that each new issue, or digital alert, includes a couple of papers that pique your interest, perhaps adding a new perspective to your research questions. The collection of papers in this Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution: 2019 Highlights eBook represents a sample of published papers that attracted the interest of the Specialty Chief Editors and members of the editorial office. While the collection is largely eclectic, it does represent the breadth and methods of enquiry that are published in Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution. We hope that some of the contributions in this collection similarly interest you.

La bombilla, durante mucho tiempo símbolo del progreso, debe apagarse. Es necesario abrazar la oscuridad para asegurar un futuro brillante. ¿Cuánta luz es demasiada? La flora y la fauna del mundo han evolucionado para operar en el ciclo natural del día y la noche. Sin embargo, la iluminación permanente ha hecho que la contaminación lumínica sea un grave problema. Desde el espacio, nuestro planeta brilla intensamente 24 horas al día, los 7 días de la semana. Al extender nuestras horas de luz, hemos expulsado a los habitantes de la noche e interrumpido los ritmos circadianos necesarios para el sustento de todos los seres vivos. Las farolas y los letreros de neón de nuestras ciudades están alterando ecosistemas enteros. Johan Eklöf nos anima a apreciar la oscuridad natural y sus beneficios únicos con un apasionante relato sobre el efecto dominó del daño que infligimos al mantener las luces encendidas: insectos que no logran reproducirse, aves cegadas y desconcertadas, murciélagos hambrientos mientras esperan en vano a insectos que solo salen en la oscuridad... Y nosotros, los humanos, podemos encontrar que nuestras hormonas, peso y salud mental se ven afectados.

The generation of electricity by wind energy has the potential to reduce environmental impacts caused by the use of fossil fuels. Although the use of wind energy to generate electricity is increasing rapidly in the United States, government guidance to help communities and developers evaluate and plan proposed wind-energy projects is lacking. Environmental Impacts of Wind-Energy Projects offers an analysis of the environmental benefits and drawbacks of wind energy, along with an evaluation guide to aid decision-making about projects. It includes a case study of the mid-Atlantic highlands, a mountainous area that spans parts of West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. This book will inform policy makers at the federal, state, and local levels.

This book focuses on central themes related to the conservation of bats. It details their response to land-use change and management practices, intensified urbanization and roost disturbance and loss. Increasing interactions between humans and bats as a result of hunting, disease relationships, occupation of human dwellings, and conflict over fruit crops are explored in depth. Finally, contributors highlight the roles that taxonomy, conservation networks and conservation psychology have to play in conserving this imperilled but vital taxon. With over 1300 species, bats are the second largest order of mammals, yet as the Anthropocene dawns, bat populations around the world are in decline. Greater understanding of the anthropogenic drivers of this decline and exploration of possible mitigation measures are urgently needed if we are to retain global bat diversity in the coming decades. This book brings together teams of international experts to provide a global review of current understanding and recommend directions for future research and mitigation.

To conserve bats effectively, and to meet national and international statutory obligations and agreements, there is a clear need for quality controls and appropriate levels of bat survey to be established. To date, there has been uncertainty around the type of survey and level of survey effort needed, when to survey, and how these decisions are affected by the habitat, time of year, geographical location and the species present or likely to be present in the prospective survey area.This book provides good practice guidance for those commissioning, undertaking or reviewing bat surveys throughout the UK. It is intended to bring about improvements in the standard and consistency of bat surveys and survey reports and ultimately lead to greater undertstanding about bats and improvements in their protection and conservation.

The world's ecosystems are increasingly threatened by human development. Ecological impact assessment (EcIA) is used to predict and evaluate the impacts of development on ecosystems and their components,thereby providing the information needed to ensure that ecological issues are given full and proper consideration in development planning. Environmental impact assessment (EIA) has emerged as a key to sustainable development by integrating social, economic and environmental issues in many countries. EcIA has a major part to play as a component of EIA but also has other potential applications in environmental planning and management. Ecological Impact Assessment provides a comprehensive review of the EcIA process and summarizes the ecological theories and tools that can be used to understand, explain and evaluate the ecological consequences of development proposals. It is intended for the many individuals and companies involved in EIA and EcIA, as well as other areas of environmental management where impacts on ecosystems need to be evaluated. It will benefit planners, regulators, environmental consultants and scientists and will also provide an invaluable sourcebook and guide for the growing number of undergraduate students taking courses in applied ecology, EIA and related topics in environmental science. A practical management guide for the increasing numbers of practitioners of EcIA. A rapidly expanding subject driven by the proliferation of environmental legislation worldwide.
