Building Rural Community Resilience Through Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Drawing from empirical analyses, case studies, and a synthesis of best practices, this book explores how innovation manifests itself in rural places and how it contributes to entrepreneurial development and resilience.Innovation in rural places may come about as a result of new forms of collaboration; policies that leverage rural assets and address critical service or product gaps; novel strategies for accessing financial capital; infusion of arts into aspects of community life; and cultivation of networks that bridge entrepreneurs, organizations, and institutions.The chapters illustrate how a number of innovation-related characteristics relate to economic vibrancy in rural places such as a strong connection to the arts, adaptive and sustainable use of natural resources, value-chain integrated food systems, robust bridging social capital networks, creative leveraging of technology, and presence of innovation-focused entrepreneurs.Through exploration of these and other topics, this book will provide insights and best practices for rural community and economic development scholars and practitioners seeking to strengthen the rural innovation ecosystem.

Everyday Life-Environmentalism : Community Sustainability and Resilience in Asia
This book provides one of the first systematic introductions to the Japanese concept of life-environmentalism, Seikatsu-Kankyo Shugi.This concept emerged in the 1980s as a shared research framework among Japanese social scientists studying the adverse consequences of postwar industrialization on everyday life in communities. Life-environmentalism offers a lens through which the agency of small communities in sustaining their everyday life and living environment can be understood.The book provides an overview of this approach, including intellectual backgrounds and foundational concepts, along with a variety of empirical case studies that examine environmental and sustainability issues in Japan and other parts of Asia.It also includes critical reflections on the approach in light of contemporary sustainability challenges.The empirical topics covered in the book include local community responses to development projects, resource governance, disaster response and recovery, and historical environmental preservation.The chapters are contributed by researchers working at the forefront of the field.It provides only a glimpse into the vast literature that awaits further exploration and engagement in the future. The book is suitable for upper undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers interested in environmental problems, sustainability and resilience, disaster mitigation and response, and regional development in Asian contexts, particularly Japan.It is well-suited for courses in anthropology, geography, sociology, urban and regional planning, political science, Asian studies, and environmental studies.

Why can a person tolerate a sauna at 100 degrees Celsius, but not a high humidity environment at 40 degrees Celsius?
A person can tolerate a sauna at 100 degrees Celsius because the heat is dry, allowing the body to effectively regulate its temperature through sweating. In contrast, a high humidity environment at 40 degrees Celsius makes it difficult for the body to cool down through evaporation, leading to a higher risk of heat-related illnesses like heat exhaustion or heat stroke. The combination of high heat and humidity can overwhelm the body's ability to cool itself, making it more challenging to tolerate compared to a dry heat environment like a sauna.

Would you prefer 60 degrees or 95 degrees?
I would prefer 60 degrees over 95 degrees. I find 60 degrees to be a more comfortable temperature for outdoor activities and daily tasks. 95 degrees can be too hot and uncomfortable for me, making it difficult to enjoy being outside or even just going about my day.

Should I choose 50 degrees or 70 degrees?
The decision between 50 degrees and 70 degrees depends on the context. If you are referring to the temperature for indoor comfort, 70 degrees is generally considered more comfortable for most people. However, if you are referring to the angle for a specific task or project, it would depend on the specific requirements and constraints of that task. It's important to consider the specific context and any relevant factors before making a decision.

Girl Power : Sustainability, Empowerment, and Justice
Power. Gender. Sustainability. This Element harnesses powerful new data about gender and sustainability, presents inspiring stories of empowerment, and introduces a framework for building empowerment muscles.First, from a pioneering global survey, it unveils three shocking truths about young women's empowerment.It also compiles significant data on systemic gender disempowerment intersecting environmental degradation, violence, and exclusion, as well as profound societal impact if girls and women were fully empowered.Second, from climate activist Greta Thunberg to the all girl Afghan robotics team, the #NeverAgain movement against gun violence, and the Hong Kong pro-democracy movement, today's empowered girls are a transformative force for change.Each modeling a distinct skill - an empowerment muscle - seven case studies present empowerment muscles of focus, solidarity, hope, courage, advocacy, endurance, and healing.Third, unlike most works using empowerment nebulously, this Element concretizes empowerment - a set of muscles each reader can build and strengthen through 'workout' training exercises.

Should my GTX 1650 Super be at 70 degrees, 65 degrees, or 75 degrees?
Your GTX 1650 Super should ideally be running at around 65-70 degrees Celsius under load. This temperature range is considered safe and optimal for the GPU's performance and longevity. If your GPU is consistently running at 75 degrees or higher, it may indicate inadequate cooling or airflow in your system, and you may want to consider improving your case ventilation or adjusting your fan curves to lower the temperature.

What is better, 50 degrees or 50 degrees Celsius?
50 degrees is a measure of temperature in either Fahrenheit or Celsius, so it is not clear which scale is being referred to. However, if we assume that 50 degrees refers to 50 degrees Fahrenheit and 50 degrees Celsius, then 50 degrees Celsius is better for measuring temperature because it is a more commonly used and internationally recognized unit of temperature measurement. Additionally, Celsius is based on the freezing and boiling points of water, making it more intuitive for everyday use.
-
Are 30 degrees twice as hot as 15 degrees?
No, 30 degrees is not twice as hot as 15 degrees. The concept of temperature is not linear, so a 30-degree temperature is not twice as hot as a 15-degree temperature. In fact, the difference in temperature is the same in both cases, as each represents a 15-degree difference from the freezing point of water. Therefore, while 30 degrees is indeed warmer than 15 degrees, it is not twice as hot.
-
Is the normal body temperature 34 degrees or 35 degrees?
The normal body temperature is typically around 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit or 37 degrees Celsius. A body temperature of 34 degrees or 35 degrees would be considered abnormally low and could indicate hypothermia. It is important to seek medical attention if experiencing a body temperature outside of the normal range.
