'Niemandsland' investigates the impact of brown coal extraction in Germany's Rhineland, where some of Europe's largest open-cast lignite mines have dramatically altered the landscape and contributed heavily to CO2 emissions. These mines have displaced entire villages, causing a sense of powerlessness among residents who grew up knowing that their h...

Niemandsland
Een Antarctische ontdekkingsreis - van de auteur van het veelgeprezen Het gedroomde Noorden'Elke zin is raak. [...] Het geheel aan invalshoeken, dagboekaantekeningen en anekdotes maakt Niemandsland tot een wervelende ontdekkingsreis.' ●●●●● NRC 'Dit boek over Antarctica is een vat vol verrassingen, net als het continent zelf.' ★★★★ de VolkskrantIn Niemandsland neemt schrijver en historicus Adwin de Kluyver de lezer mee op een meeslepende literaire ontdekkingsreis richting de Zuidpool. Met aanstekelijk vertelplezier laat hij zien hoe de mens dit koude continent in de loop der eeuwen heeft gezocht, verkend, beschreven en benut.

Fietskaart 09 Cycling guides Norfolk | Goldeneye
Fietskaart 09 Cycling guides Norfolk | Goldeneye
Norfolk is the fourth largest county in England and one of the most rural. It is also one of the flattest and our circular routes have been chosen to explore the quiet lanes linking the isolated and picturesque villages and places of interest. This is ideal cycling territory and fortunately, the Norfolk County Council (and its District Councils) are seriously committed in providing and developing cycling routes and in promoting a cycling culture that is sustainable and family friendly. Some of their routes are illustrated, hitherto.   The County has been described as flat (rather gentle undulations) and does not in fact rise much over 300 feet, but it offers great scenic interest; the dark forests of Breckland, the rolling chalk lands of the northwest, the unique watery patch of the Broads, and a coastline of great variety. Ancient churches and picturesque villages are there in abundance, the latter often decorated with the attractive signs designed by Harry Carter in the 1950’s.   Re…

Wandelgids Walk! Costa del Sol: Axarquia | Discovery Walking Guides
Goede wandelgids van een uitermate geschikt wandelgebied aan de Costa del Sol: het binnenland boven Nerja rond Competa en andere bergdorpen. De beschrijvingen zijn prima, zo ook de praktische informatie en de kaarten.

Fietskaart 14 Cycling guides Suffolk | Goldeneye
Fietskaart 14 Cycling guides Suffolk | Goldeneye
To be confronted with the variety and complexity of the cycling routes, trails and paths in Suffolk can be a bewildering experience.  For it appears that the Suffolk County Council and the three District Councils are all trying hard to promote their areas. This is indeed encouraging for the growth of cycling, but it can be confusing.  Our purpose is to provide clear, easy to use and easy to follow, cycling maps, and to illustrate these in a comprehensive form.    Suffolk must be one of the most charming of counties to explore by bicycle. When Al Churcher delivered his routes to us at Goldeneye we couldn’t keep him quiet, such was his enthusiasm and wonder at Suffolk’s country lanes and byways. He has cycled all over the UK, Canada, Mallorca, New Zealand and Sicily, but Suffolk remained a firm favourite.    The inland scenery is not spectacular for the county’s main glory lies with its attractive villages; the local architecture jealously preserved from modern depredation. There is an …

Fietskaart 01 Cycling guides Cornwall | Goldeneye
Fietskaart 01 Cycling guides Cornwall | Goldeneye
Our maps are double-sided, printed on an A2 sheet with a concertina fold. This allows for easy folding and folding, and an ease of access to the mapping. The material is rain and tear-resistant. Our early maps were designed at the scale of 2 miles to 1 inch/1:126,720. The later designs along with digitalisation are 1: 100,000. We were encouraged by the Cycle Touring Club to convert our cartography toward the cycle market (to replace the out-of-print Bartholomew series). As time and the series progressed we have added more data: The National Cycle Network routes, Regional Routes, and Traffic-Free Family Routes, as and when they are developed. These routes are in addition to the Circular Routes Goldeneye Commissioned at the outset of our publishing schedule. We are also adding to new editions; bike shops, cycle hire, and tea rooms, along with the tourist attractions already featured. Our plan is to make available digital versions for cell phones and tablets and to update, on an annual b…

Wandelgids Walking in Andalucia - Andalusië | Cicerone
Wandelgids Walking in Andalucia - Andalusië | Cicerone
Mooi en duidelijke wandelgids over bepaalde streken in Andalusië: goed beschreven wandelingen met een redelijke kaart. De tekst is behoorlijk kompleet. Daarnaast ook praktische informatie per route. This guidebook explores six of Andalucía's most beautiful Natural Parks, the Sierra Nevada regions of Aracena, Grazalema, Los Alcornocales and the Gaucín, La Axarquía, the Alpujarras and Cazorla, along the great belt of the Cordillera Bética mountains. The thirty-six half-day and full-day mostly circular walks are evenly split within these six regions, and range in length from 4 to 21km.

Productomschrijving

'Niemandsland' investigates the impact of brown coal extraction in Germany's Rhineland, where some of Europe's largest open-cast lignite mines have dramatically altered the landscape and contributed heavily to CO2 emissions. These mines have displaced entire villages, causing a sense of powerlessness among residents who grew up knowing that their homes would one day be destroyed. In 2012, environmental activists occupied Hambach Forest. Despite some success in preserving parts of the forest and five villages, a sixth village, Lützerath, was demolished. By engaging with the affected communities, Daniel Chatard (DE) shows the emotional and physical toll of the mining operations. A reminder of the costs of energy production and the enduring human spirit in the face of overwhelming odds.
