Du paléolithique à nos jours, Sapiens s'est trouvé confronté à des événements naturels souvent rapides, brutaux et de grande ampleur. Pour le pire et pour le meilleur. Car si notre espèce a failli en perdre la vie, si des civilisations se sont effondrées, si récemment encore se sont ensuivies famines, guerres et épidémies, nous avons fait preuve en ces occasions d'une belle faculté de résilience.

My book is about plastic pollution and what we have to do to reduce it and protect our health.

Burning fossil fuels will cause catastrophic global warming: this is what top American oil executives were told by scientists in 1959. But they ignored that warning. Instead, they developed one of the biggest, most polluting oil sources in the world—the oil sands in Alberta, Canada. As investigative journalist Geoff Dembicki reveals in this explosive book, the decades-long conspiracy to keep the oil sands flowing into the US would turn out to be one of the biggest reasons for the world's failure to stop the climate crisis.

Have you ever wondered how peas, kale, asparagus, beans, squash, and corn have ended up on our plates? Well, Adam Alexander has. In The Seed Detective, Adam shares his own stories of seed hunting, with the origin stories behind many of our everyday food heroes.

In Climaturity, Marc Cortez advocates for a transparent climate discussion where half-truths are completed, climate science limitations are put into context, and politicians are held accountable for spending taxpayer dollars. Climaturity offers a new perspective on the climate controversy through the pragmatic lens of a long-time renewable energy industry veteran. Part science, part satire, and part snark, he takes a stand against the climate panic movement.

In 2012 retired South African general Johan Jooste was parachuted into the seemingly unwinnable war against rhino poaching in the Kruger National Park. With poaching spiralling out of control, Jooste was given the mandate to 'go military', to convert Kruger's ranger corps into a para-military force capable of taking the fight to poachers. Aged 60, white, and a veteran of 35 years of military service, Jooste's controversial appointment was immediately met with resentment and hostility by elements of South African National Parks, the police, and even the military he had served with.

In 2013 Michael J. Yochim was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). While fighting the disease, he wrote Requiem for America's Best Idea.

Natur- und Artenschutz sind in aller Munde, aber ein Aspekt, der unsere Natur massiv bedroht, wird dabei meist außer Acht gelassen: Die Lichtverschmutzung – das künstliche Licht, das unsere Städte und Dörfer erhellt. Alle Rhythmen der Natur sind letztlich abhängig vom Wechsel zwischen Tag und Nacht. Fällt dieser Wechsel weg, weil die Nacht verschwindet, dann hat das gravierende Folgen. Vögel singen in allzu heller Umgebung mitten in der Nacht.

At first, Erika Bolstad knew only one thing about her great-grandmother, Anna: she was a homesteader on the North Dakota prairies in the early 1900s before her husband committed her to an asylum under mysterious circumstances. As Erika's mother was dying, she revealed more: their family still owned the mineral rights to Anna's land—and oil companies were interested in the black gold beneath the prairies. Their family, Erika learned, could get rich thanks to the legacy of a woman nearly lost to history.

Die Menschheit befindet sich in einem gewaltigen Transformationsprozess. Die Menge dessen, was anzupacken, zu reparieren und neu auszurichten ist, scheint übergroß. Wie finden wir Kompass, Kreativität und Courage, um diese Herausforderungen weniger zu bekämpfen als viel mehr zu gestalten? Und: wer ist eigentlich wir und warum ist das so wichtig? Die Art, wie wir leben, wird sich fundamental verändern. Bisherige Selbstverständlichkeiten in Umwelt, Wirtschaft, Politik, Gesellschaft und Technologie zerbröseln.

Demokratie und Wohlstand, ein längeres Leben, mehr Gleichberechtigung und Bildung: Der Kapitalismus hat viel Positives bewirkt. Zugleich ruiniert er jedoch Klima und Umwelt, sodass die Menschheit nun existenziell gefährdet ist. "Grünes Wachstum" soll die Rettung sein, aber Wirtschaftsexpertin und Bestsellerautorin Ulrike Herrmann hält dagegen: Verständlich und messerscharf erklärt sie in ihrem neuen Hörbuch, warum wir stattdessen "grünes Schrumpfen" brauchen. Die Klimakrise verschärft sich täglich, aber konkret ändert sich fast nichts.
