Potito Ruggero ha tredici anni. Il 27 settembre del 2019, durante il terzo appuntamento del Global Strike for Future, fu l'unico a scendere in piazza nel suo Comune, a Stornarella, in provincia di Foggia, per lanciare un segnale contro il riscaldamento globale. Per tre ore è rimasto seduto davanti alla finestra del Sindaco, con un cartello su cui c'era scritto: I keep an eye on you, Io vi tengo d'occhio.

A follow-up to Ohlson’s previous book, The Soil Will Save Us (Rodale 2014), Sweet in Tooth and Claw extends the concept of cooperation in nature to the life-affirming connections among microbes, plants, fungi, insects, birds, and animals—including humans—in ecosystems around the globe.

This book chronicles the creation of Everglades National Park, the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. Prior to the park's creation, the Everglades was seen as a reviled and useless swamp, unfit for typical recreational or development projects. Park advocates drew on new ideas concerning the value of biota and ecology, the importance of wilderness, and the need to protect habitats, marine ecosystems, and plant life to redefine the Everglades. Using these ideas, the Everglades began to be recognized as an ecologically valuable and fragile wetland.

In this timely and exciting contribution to a wider conversation about our relationship with the natural world, wildlife journalist Millie Kerr takes listeners on a global journey of discovery. She considers the practicalities and possibilities of ecological restoration around the world, while exploring first-hand some of the most ambitious undertakings occurring today, many of which involve species reintroductions in the Global South.

Stoppt die Zerstörung der Meere! Ein dramatischer Appell für den Schutz unseres größten Ökosystems. Die Diskussionen über Klimawandel und Umweltschutz werden so hitzig geführt wie nie zuvor. Trotzdem ändert sich wenig. Internationale Klimakonferenzen kommen und gehen, aber konkrete Entscheidungen werden kaum getroffen. Mit seinem Manifest "Wenn der Ozean stirbt, sterben auch wir" richtet Paul Watson seinen Aufruf nicht zum ersten Mal an Bürger und Regierungen, um uns zum Umdenken zu bewegen. Sein Credo: Man kann die Welt nicht verändern, ohne Wellen zu schlagen.

In 2020, writer and campaigner Guy Shrubsole moved from London to Devon. As he explored the wooded valleys, rivers and tors of Dartmoor, Guy discovered a spectacular habitat that he had never encountered before: temperate rainforest. Entranced, he would spend the coming months investigating the history, ecology and distribution of rainforests across England, Wales and Scotland. Britain, Guy discovered, was once a rainforest nation. This is the story of a unique habitat that has been so ravaged, most people today don’t realise it exists.

Este audiolibro es un acercamiento a estas dudas y a nuestra biodiversidad colombiana, nuestro mayor tesoro, en donde descubriremos la naturaleza de nuestro territorio como nunca antes se había presentado. Estamos ante una oportunidad que no podemos fallar.

Desde hace unos años se suceden episodios de muerte súbita y generalizada de árboles en bosques de todo el mundo. En muchos casos el cambio climático y las sequías desempeñan un papel importante, pero no son la única causa, ya que se combina con la historia de la explotación humana y con la proliferación de plagas y de incendios cada vez más virulentos. El profesor Francisco Lloret recorre algunos de los bosques más importantes de Norteamérica, Patagonia, Europa y África para mostrarnos, con luminosa claridad y rigor, los procesos que están provocando su colapso.

As humans accelerate global warming while laying waste to the environment, animals and plants must flee to the margins: on scattered nature reserves, between major highways, or among urban sprawl. And when even these places become too hot and inhospitable, wildlife is left with only one path to survival: an often-formidable journey toward the poles as they race to find a new home in a warming world. Award-winning environmental journalist Benjamin von Brackel traces these awe-inspiring journeys and celebrates the remarkable resilience of species around the world.

Wie wir mit dem Wissen über die Alpen unser Wetter und den Klimawandel besser verstehen. Meteorologe Sven Plöger und Wissenschaftsjournalist Rolf Schlenker erklären, wie die Alpen als Taktgeber für unterschiedlichste Wetterphänomene auch im Flachland wirken. Wie Hitzerekorde, Trockenperioden, Saharastaub und Starkregen, Föhnstürme und Orkanböen entstehen. Mit welchen Strategien Alpentiere überleben; wie das evolutive Gedächtnis von Alpenpflanzen funktioniert. Und welche Ideen es vor Ort gibt, mit denen wir dem Klimawandel entgegentreten können.

We have reached the point of no return. The existential threat of climate change is now a reality. The world has never been more vulnerable. Yet corporations are already planning a life beyond this point. The business models of fossil fuel giants factor in continued profitability in a scenario of a five-degree increase in global temperature. An increase that will kill millions, if not billions. This is the shocking reality laid bare in a hard-hitting new book by David Whyte.

Taking its title from a chilling warning made by the United Nations that the world’s soils could be lost within a lifetime, Sixty Harvests Left uncovers how the food industry is threatening the planet. Put simply, without soils there will be no food: game over. And time is running out.

Outdoor writer Mike Arnold takes us on an impressionistic journey through Coutada 11, a once again magnificent natural area in Mozambique's Zambeze Delta. Mike leads us from its poached-out days as a source of bush meat for starving villagers and civil war military troops to the arrival in the early '90s of hunting outfitter Mark Haldane and his partners, on their often perilous, sometimes hilarious, travails to take the defiled and uninhabitable place and make it whole again.

Colm O’Regan grew up on a small farm where his family planted lots of trees and grew most of their own food, but his father—who took Dutch elm disease personally—also happened to burn rubbish out the back and loaded the soil with 10-10-20. Most of us would like to live more sustainable lives, but what’s the point in picking up litter if you have to commute 80km just to get to the office? Climate Worrier is a book full of hypocrisies—how in trying to do the right thing, there’s always someone who will point out that, actually, you’re wrong.

Part memoir, part manifesto, Chamorro climate activist Julian Aguon's No Country for Eight-Spot Butterflies is a coming-of-age story and a call for justice—for everyone, but in particular, for Indigenous peoples. Aguon weaves together stories from his childhood in the villages of Guam with searing political commentary about matters ranging from nuclear weapons to global warming. Bearing witness and reckoning with the challenges of truth-telling in an era of rampant obfuscation, he culls from his own life experiences to illuminate a collective path out of the darkness.

Whether disillusioned by the dominant church or unfulfilled by traditional expressions of faith, many of us long for a deeper spirituality. Victoria Loorz did. Coping with an unraveling vocation, identity, and planet, Loorz turned to the wanderings of spiritual leaders and the sanctuary of the natural world. With an ecospiritual lens on biblical narratives and a fresh look at a community larger than our own species, Church of the Wild uncovers the wild roots of faith and helps us deepen our commitment to a suffering earth by falling in love with it—and calling it church.

Since it was first proposed in the US House of Representatives, the Green New Deal has been hotly debated. The intent was not simply to fight climate change or address a specific environmental concern, but rather to tackle how climate change and other environmental challenges affect the economy, the vulnerable, and social justice—and vice versa. In Science for a Green New Deal, Eric Davidson dissects this legislative resolution.

In Our National Forests, Greg Peters gives an inside look at America’s most important public lands and the people committed to protecting them and ensuring access for all. From the Forest Service growing millions of seedlings in the West each year, to their efforts to save the hellbender salamander in Appalachia, the story spans the breadth of the country and its diverse ecology. And people are at the center, whether the dedicated Forest Service members or the everyday citizens who support and tend to the protected lands near their homes.
