Die unmittelbaren Folgen der Klimakrise werden immer spürbarer. Und obwohl das Bewusstsein über die drastischen Ausmaße wächst, so ändert sich wenig. Wir alle verdrängen täglich die Klimakrise - und auch die damit zusammenhängenden Gefühle. Dabei sind Klimagefühle wie Trauer, Scham, Wut, Schuld und Angst keinesfalls pathologisch, sondern im Angesicht einer globalen Krise völlig normal. Wichtig ist nur, dass wir lernen, mit dieser Bandbreite an Gefühlen umzugehen: Was tun gegen die Enttäuschung über das ausbleibende Engagement der Politik.

Our precious archipelago is ravaged by climate change, bereft of natural ecosystems and lies at the mercy of global warming, flooding, drought and catastrophic biodiversity loss. But could restoring species that once helped protect our islands help turn this crisis around? From familiar yet imperilled honeybees and ancient oak woods to returning natives like beavers and boars, Britain’s cornerstone species may hold the key to recovering our biodiversity on land and in our seas.

This book exposes the truth that the climate change hoax is a political movement aimed at eliminating capitalism by spreading alarming disinformation that in order to "save the Earth" from global warming, we must reduce carbon dioxide emissions by switching from hydrocarbon fuels to renewable energies. The Truth About Energy, Global Warming, and Climate Change: Exposing Climate Lies in an Age of Disinformation reveals a science-based understanding of Earth's climate and temperature that Green New Deal proponents are trying to hide.

The New England landscape has long been battered by some of the most intense weather in the United States. The region breeds one of the highest concentrations of meteorologists in the country for a reason. One can experience just about anything except a dust storm. Knowing the past is a critical part of understanding and forecasting the weather. Meteorologist Eric Fisher takes an in-depth look at some of the most intense weather events in New England's history.

If you had a trillion dollars and a year to spend it for the good of the world and the advancement of science, what would you do? It's an unimaginably large sum, yet it's only around one per cent of world GDP, and about the valuation of Google, Microsoft or Amazon. It's a much smaller sum than the world found to bail out its banks in 2008 or deal with Covid-19. But what could you achieve with $1 trillion? You could solve the problem of the pandemic, for one, and eradicate malaria, and maybe cure all disease. You could end global poverty.

A new generation of urban homesteaders are leading the way in environmental consciousness and sustainable living in a world of consumerism and imposing climate change. Learn the skills, habits, and choices that you can make to become more self-reliant in an urban setting and to reduce your mark on the world around you.

Wie eine Mutter und ihre Tochter von Pellworm die Politik bezwungen haben. Die Nordseeinseln Pellworm ist die Heimat von Sophie und Silke Backsen. Hier werden die Auswirkungen des Klimawandels besonders spürbar: Die Insel liegt heute bereits einen Meter unter dem Meeresspiegel, jede weitere Erhöhung desselben wäre katastrophal.

"Lively writing about science and nature depends less on the offering of good answers, I think, than on the offering of good questions," said David Quammen in the original introduction to Natural Acts. For more than two decades, he has stuck to that credo. In this updated version of Natural Acts, curiosity leads him from New Mexico to Romania, from the Congo to the Amazon, asking questions about mosquitoes (what are their redeeming merits?), dinosaurs (how did they change the life of a dyslexic Vietnam vet?), and cloning (can it save endangered species?).

Capitalism Is Past Its Sell-By Date explores capitalism’s accomplishments, its challenges, and the most profound effect of its success—overconsumption that is challenging the Earth’s ecosystems and inhabitants. Included is a comprehensive review of capitalism, an exploration of the implications of the exhaustion of the Earth’s resources, and an examination of growth. This book aims neither to praise nor to condemn capitalism, but to describe its current and future states of play to create a more proactive and productive conversation around our shared global future.

Klimawandel und Abholzung der Regenwälder, Konsumexplosion und Vermüllung der Meere – all das bedroht die Vielfalt des Lebens auf der Erde und mehr noch: unser eigenes Überleben. Die 2020er-Jahre sind die letzte Chance umzusteuern. Viele innovative Ideen geben Hoffnung auf ein besseres Leben nicht gegen, sondern im Einklang mit der Natur. Ulrich Eberl bewertet fachlich fundiert die Lösungsstrategien. Er schildert anschaulich die spannendsten Projekte aus führenden Labors der Welt und stellt die Forscherinnen und Forscher vor, die mit aller Kraft dafür kämpfen, dass sie Wirklichkeit werden.

Comment se douter qu'un simple Like envoyé depuis nos smartphones mobilise ce qui constituera bientôt la plus vaste infrastructure édifiée par l'homme ? Que cette notification, en traversant les sept couches de fonctionnement d’Internet, voyage autour du monde, empruntant des câbles sous-marins, des antennes téléphoniques et des datacenters implantés jusque dans le cercle arctique ? Le monde "dématérialisé" du numérique, indispensable pour communiquer, travailler et consommer, s'avère bien plus tangible que nous ne voulions le croire.

One of the most ubiquitous indicators of human activity, roads typically promise development and prosperity. Yet they carry with them the threat of disruption to both human and animal lives. Jones surveys the myriad, innovative ways stakeholders across the world have sought to reduce animal-vehicle collisions and minimize road-crossing risks for wildlife, including efforts undertaken at the famed fauna overpasses of Banff National Park, the Singapore Eco-Link, "tunnels of love" in the Australian Alps, and others.

Do we understand what trees really are and how they contribute to sustaining and creating new life on Earth? Why are trees the largest biological interface with the power of wind? What astronomical rhythms have been demonstrated to activate their growth? How do trees influence the quality of the Earth’s water? By bringing to the foreground what has been completely overlooked, a new vision of the essential role of trees is revealed. In addition, a novel understanding of the relationships and trajectory of nature and the Earth is made possible.

In 2020, COVID-19, the Australia bushfires, and other global threats served as vivid reminders that human and nonhuman fates are increasingly linked. Human use of nonhuman animals contributes to pandemics, climate change, and other global threats which, in turn, contribute to biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse, and nonhuman suffering.

Dramatisches Artensterben, Corona, brennende Regenwälder, verseuchte Gewässer, Niedergang der kleinbäuerlichen Landwirtschaft - wir befinden uns inmitten einer Zeitenwende. Was können wir tun? Mit einem Steak essen wir den brandgerodeten Regenwald, genmanipuliertes Kraftfutter, Stress und Leid der Tiere. Das Billig-Schnitzel erzeugt einen gewaltigen Schuldenberg, von dem wir nichts erfahren. Konzerne reden uns ein, durch teure Lebensmittel die Welt gerecht kaufen zu können. Doch billig ist nicht automatisch schlecht und teuer nicht immer gut.

De klimaforandringer, der længe har været forudsagt blandt verdens førende forskere på området, udvikler sig i dag hurtigere og endnu mere dramatisk, end det først blev stillet i udsigt. Så det er på tide at handle. Det mener også James Lovelock, der i 1970’erne fremsatte Gaia-teorien. I "Gaias forsvindende ansigt" kommer han med en sidste advarsel til Jordens befolkning. Planeten skal nok overleve, men hvis vi mennesker ønsker at være en del af dens fremtid, er vi nødt til at gøre noget nu. Den britiske forsker James Lovelock (f.

Both thoughtful and thought-provoking, Finding Purpose challenges our understanding of how humanity interacts with planet Earth, and our role within this. This book is an invitation: would you like to participate in one of the most important projects of imagination, perhaps the greatest ever, in human history?

The Psychology of Climate Change explores the evidence for our changing environment, and suggests that there are significant cognitive biases in how we think about, and act on climate change. The authors examine how organisations have attempted to mobilise the public in the fight against climate change, but these initiatives have often failed due to the public’s unwillingness to adapt their behaviour.

The environment and its decline in health is the most important issue facing mankind today and is a subject everyone should have an understanding of, from business CEOs to the average person in society. By exploring topics such as biodiversity, ecosystem services, sustainability, and ecology, the listener will be equipped with the necessary foundational knowledge that is required before effective management strategies can be considered and implemented, either in business or at the home.

Overfishing. For the world's oceans, it's long been a worrisome problem with few answers. But as older fishing fleets retire and new technologies develop, a better, more sustainable way to farm this popular protein has emerged to profoundly shift the balance. The Blue Revolution tells the story of the recent transformation of commercial fishing: an encouraging change from maximizing volume through unrestrained wild hunting to maximizing value through controlled harvesting and farming.
