Global Climate Change

There's finally reason to hope. Climate change is the existential threat of our time, but incredible new advancements in science and engineering can allow us to avoid the worst repercussions of global warming as we work to reverse it over time. In Our Livable World, research specialist and author Marc Schaus leads listeners in an exploration of the newest and upcoming innovations in green technology poised to prevent the climate apocalypse - and usher in a sustainable, livable world.

Our naked eyes see only a thin sliver of reality. We are blind in comparison to the X-rays that peer through skin, the mass spectrometers that detect the dead inside the living or the high-tech surveillance systems that see with artificial intelligence. And we are blind compared to the animals that can see in infrared, or ultraviolet, or in 360-degree vision. These animals live in the same world we do, but they see something quite different when they look around.

We are in the midst of an extinction event: the sixth mass extinction on Earth and one entirely caused by mankind. All species become extinct sooner or later, but we have accelerated that natural process several hundredfold, and now, it is happening right in front of our eyes. Extinction has a terrifying finality to it. And many species have already been lost to us forever; there is little we can do about that. What we can do, however, is reflect, remember, and ultimately acknowledge the unvarnished truth.

If you feel like climate change and the state of our planet just keeps getting worse and there’s nothing we can do to stop it then you’ve picked up the right book–because tons of efforts are already underway to save our planet, and we’d love for you to join the fight. Good News, Planet Earth is your go-to guide to learn about all the amazing sustainable developments that are being put in place worldwide to combat warming temperatures, pollution, deforestation, the use of wasteful products, and threats to our diverse wildlife.

In ‘Humans Are Doomed To Go Extinct’, an article in Scientific American published in November 2021, veteran Nature editor Dr Henry Gee predicted that Homo sapiens is on a rapid one-way ride to extinction. The article provoked media coverage and comment around the world. In The Decline and Fall of the Human Empire, Gee expands the themes of his much-discussed article to book length, charting both the rise as well as the fall of humans. Gee paints a picture of extinction within the next 10,000 years – and suggests ways that our exceptional species might avoid its fate.

How can schools prepare students to address the challenges of inequality and climate change? How can different groups collaborate to improve education drawing on the insights of comparative analysis and research? The twenty-five chapters in these two volumes provide answers to those questions. Drawing on the work of a hundred Harvard graduate students in the course ‘Education Policy Analysis and Research in Comparative Perspective’, in collaboration with educators in many schools and school systems around the world, the book illustrates the power of an analytic approach to examine the ...

Is global warming really happening? Is such a thing even possible? What does science say - and what about the Bible? And if it is happening, what should we do about it? In this thoughtful analysis, we take a look at the evidence presented by scientists and the scriptures, from the chemistry behind greenhouse gases to the biblical account of the creation of the Earth, to help listeners understand the differences between the two narratives and learn what the Bible really says about mankind’s responsibility to the Earth.

Science fiction (or is it?). The sixteenth anniversary edition of a book that achieved international notoriety. A few decades from now, one man attempts to hold back the tide of chaos and anarchy caused by runaway climate change. General Eastland does terrible things to maintain order in a world devastated by starvation and violence. Nominated for the Sunburst Award for Canadian science fiction. "A brisk seller." ~ New York Times " A fast-paced novel which seems just ahead of tomorrow’s headlines on the effects of global warming …Hotter than Hell is an important book because it is a ...

In the wake of the pope's monumental Apocalyptic Encyclical on climate change, this audiobook seeks to present both of the sides of the debate, but not only that, it seeks to invoke the thoughts of the listener so that after ingesting so much energy and theories around the subject they can create their own interpretation of this complicated and multifaceted topic of global warming and climate change!

A plainspoken two hour and 30 minute recording that will open your mind to the incredible abundance of affordable renewable energy and the truly catastrophic consequences if we fail to transition our energy systems away from fossil fuels.

From the National Business Book Award winner and GG finalist, a very different book about facing the climate crisis, and what awaits us on the other side.

In this inspiring think piece and call to action, the founder and CEO of the global climate action movement 1 Million Women explains why the place for climate action is here, why the time is now and how women can work together to lead the way. As Natalie Isaacs says, this is the decisive decade for climate action and we have to make it count. We need to build a new world, starting immediately.

Alice Wallis's smooth voice brings this important book into your life. The book is made for everyone by providing stories and relatable examples. "Resurrect Titans" is a thought-provoking book with ground-breaking discovery. It delves into the urgent issue of global warming and humanity's newly discovered role.

A thought provoking look at the root cause of climate change and the origins of mankind's interaction with the land.

The world is waking up to a new reality: once-in-a-century floods are now happening three times a year and bushfires are the new norm. The surface area of the Arctic’s polar ice caps is rapidly decreasing, while Antarctica’s largest ice shelf is crumbling. These are effects of the planet’s increased temperature. Extreme heat is the most direct and deadly consequence of our hellbent consumption of fossil fuels. It is a first order threat that drives all other impacts of the climate crisis.

Our human custodianship of the planet is not going well. According to Scientific American, we have only sixty years of farming seasons left because we have degraded soils through industrial agriculture and the overuse of chemicals. The World Wildlife Fund says we have wiped out 60 percent of all mammals, birds, fish, and reptiles since 1970. Chemical destruction of biological processes poisons our soils, our air, and our water. The mishandling of waste is a lost opportunity to repair much of this desecration. If waste were collected as source-separated products, more than half of it could ...

We all talk about them. We all plan our lives by them. We are all obsessed with the outlook ahead. The changing seasons have shaped all of our lives, but what happens when the weather changes beyond recognition? The author, Joe Shute, has spent years unpicking Britain’s long-standing love affair with the weather. He has pored over the literature, art and music our weather systems have inspired and trawled through centuries of established folklore to discover the curious customs and rituals we have created in response to the seasons.

In "Global Warming Examined," Mark Swarbrick compellingly illustrates how genuine scientific data contradicts the prevalent political narrative of an imminent climate crisis. Drawing on insights from esteemed scientists, he dismantles the fallacious belief in man-made global warming as a cataclysmic threat. The author also demonstrates how global warming serves as a strategic tool wielded by influential global figures to manipulate America toward socialism and globalism. A dedicated chapter outlines socialism’s pernicious effects on millions and emphasizes the imminent danger it poses to ...

Maybe it's the weirdness of the weather. Maybe it's another way to pour scorn on politicians. Maybe the steady stream of headlines about fires, floods and droughts is finally starting to get to us. Whatever it is, for more and more of us, climate change is shifting from a shadowy fear in the backs of our minds to something we feel we need to get a handle on. Climate change may be a horror story, but, as Our Biggest Experiment shows, the tale of how we discovered it isn't.
