Bodies from the Ice: Melting Glaciers and the Recovery of the Past ReviewBodies from the Ice: Melting Glaciers and the Recovery of the Past by James M. Deen delves into glaciers, global warming, and yes, frozen bodies! This is a very unique book in that it takes a look at something you wouldn't normally think of when it comes to global warming--how many frozen bodies have been found in the melting ice.
In 1991 a husband and wife climbing a mountain in northern Italy stumbled across what appeared to be trash left by careless hikers. On closer inspection they realized that it was a human corpse lying near the surface of a melting alpine glacier. Ultimately, scientific study revealed that the man had lived 5,300 years earlier. Now known as Ötzi, he is one of the most important archaeological discoveries ever made.
As glaciers melt throughout the world, more frozen bodies are appearing, adding to our knowledge of culture and history.
What's amazing about this book are the pictures. The pictures show you everything and give you an idea what it must be like for a hiker to discover a frozen corpse. The text is very informative and highlights types of glaciers, the mystery of George Mallory, who died trying to climb Mt. Everest and some recently discovered Incan children who were sacrificed to the gods.
The topics covered are presented in an intriguing way that will capture young readers' attentions and teach them about our environment and history. This a wonderful read that will feed a young readers' hunger for glaciers and how people lived in the past.Bodies from the Ice: Melting Glaciers and the Recovery of the Past Overview

World health, carbon dioxide & the weather ReviewWant some deeper insights into why the weather is getting more extreme, why forest fires are epidemic, why most soil produce lacks flavor, and why terrible disease is more common than great health? I'd recommend this concise and easy read for a good conceptual grounding in John Hamaker's Thesis that global soil demineralization is the primary ecological change process of the normal 10,000-12,000-yr. interglacial period (which we're at the natural end of now) during the ca. 100,000-yr. glacial-interglacial cycle of this Quaternary Period. This "natural" process, accelerated by humankind's short-sighted mining of soil fertility and overall ecological vitality to build its "separate" cities and towns, can be reversed by an enlightened and generous human species awakened to its true responsibilities to regenerate and care for the Living Earth - from which we've never in fact been "separate," except in our little minds. Soil remineralization and global re-greening are the survival and health options revealed by Hamaker if humanity wants to help restore the Balance of Nature before Mom Nature does it herself with another probably 90,000-yrs. of glacial remineralization. Hamaker and Weaver's books THE SURVIVAL OF CIVILIZATION and TO LOVE AND REGENERATE THE EARTH go into these topics in greater depth, for those interested, and they can be downloaded for free at the remineralize.org website. WORLD HEALTH, CARBON DIOXIDE & THE WEATHER has a few out of date addresses and info in its "DataBank" section at the end, so I'd recommend utilizing the more current resource info for rock dust suppliers, etc. at the Remineralize the Earth website above. Those who buy this booklet in quantity to give away to others should tell them this, or write in the website (remineralize.org) "for current info" in the front of the DataBank section.World health, carbon dioxide & the weather OverviewWhat is the future of our climate? Global Warming? Ice Age? Both? Neither? No one can know the future. We can speculate.This thoughtful 45-minute booklet presents the idea that for the past 2 million years, our planet has experienced a repeating cycle of 90,000 years of glaciated climate/10,000 years of temperate climate, and that the glaciated climate begins when the atmospheric carbon dioxide reaches a certain level...and we've already passed that level!
