Composting is so much more than just transforming food into soil; it is deeply existential, radical, and soul-opening. And no, it's not just for gardeners. You can compost in a bowl on your kitchen counter, or a bag under your sink, and you can compost things you're told you can't (although there are some things you probably shouldn't). Everyone can compost. And even if you're not going to compost at all, knowing about compost is engaging with a dialogue about zero waste.

For as long as there have been humans, there have been humans trying to catch fish. The two species—fish and man—live in constant tension. One chases the other. One tries to get away. Some of us—author Mark Kurlansky included—are hard-wired for that chase. Guiding readers through the waters and into the mind of the fish, Kurlansky considers who fish are and why they behave the way they do, and along the way delves into the many approaches to catching a fish, their ecology, and the ins and outs of cooking and eating your catch.

Seit Jahrtausenden betrachtet der Mensch die Natur aus einem egozentrischen Blickwinkel und bedient sich mit größter Selbstverständlichkeit an ihren Schätzen. Mit jedem Stück ursprünglicher Natur, das durch unser Eingreifen verloren geht, verlieren wir auch einen Teil unserer Seele. Die Natur ist die Grundlage unseres Lebens. Um unseren Planeten zu schützen und lebenswert zu erhalten, müssen wir unsere Rolle im Universum neu definieren: Der Mensch steht nicht im Mittelpunkt, sondern ist Teil der Natur, die es zu schützen gilt.

Mulheres na Ciência – o que mudou e o que ainda precisamos mudar, organizado pelas pesquisadoras Letícia de Oliveira e Tatiana Roque, constitui uma importante pesquisa sobre a participação das mulheres no universo das Ciências. Se é verdade que as últimas décadas foram marcadas por um visível aumento da presença das mulheres neste meio, não se pode deixar de notar que, no imaginário da população, o “gênio científico” ainda é ligado, via de regra, ao gênero masculino.
