La période 2020 - 2050 sera la plus bouleversante qu'aura jamais vécu l'humanité en si peu de temps. L'effondrement de notre civilisation industrielle s'y produira à l'échelle mondiale, probablement dans les années 2020, certainement dans les années 2030. L'ouvrage examine les origines écologiques, économiques, financières et politiques de cet effondrement et, surtout, leurs relations systémiques.

"J'ai vécu la lecture d'Insoutenable Paradis comme un état des lieux à visage humain des attitudes paradoxales dans lesquelles nous plonge le monde actuel. Ce petit livre humble et solaire nous fait prendre conscience que le véritable remède ne peut venir que de chacun et chacune de nous. C'est bien l'écologie de l'âme qui sauvera notre humanité et, peut-être aussi, notre environnement." Abd Al Malik, artiste.

They are trees of life and trees of knowledge. They are wish-fulfillers, rain forest royalty, more precious than gold. They are the fig trees, and they have affected humanity in profound but little-known ways. Gods, Wasps and Stranglers tells their amazing story. Fig trees fed our prehuman ancestors, influenced diverse cultures, and played key roles in the dawn of civilization.

"Qualsiasi tentativo di trovare una via d'uscita non è altro che un ulteriore paradosso, dato che viene utilizzato lo strumento della coscienza con il fine di contrastare gli errori della coscienza stessa. Il che è un assurdo." Un'inquietante quanto affascinante nuova visione del destino di Homo sapiens nel XXI secolo. È possibile che l'umanità si sia cacciata in un vero e proprio vicolo cieco evolutivo? Vale a dire che il riscaldamento progressivo del pianeta determinato dall'hybris di Homo, con la crisi climatica che lo accompagna, abbia come esito l'estinzione.

La espléndida biografía de Alexander von Humboldt, el héroe perdido de la ciencia y padre de la ecología.

En 2013, las amigas Liesl Clark y Rebecca Rockefeller se dieron cuenta de la cantidad de residuos que había en sus playas locales - desde plumas y popotes hasta juguetes y cepillos de dientes - y decidieron hacer algo al respecto. Así nació el proyecto Buy Nothing.

Seitdem Menschen sesshafte Landwirtschaft betreiben, kommt es immer wieder zu tödlichen Epidemien. Aber warum nehmen diese Infektionen heute die Form weltweiter Pandemien an, so wie es bei COVID-19, SARS, MERS oder der Vogelgrippe der Fall war? Warum häufen sie sich - und was lässt sich dagegen unternehmen? Der US-amerikanische Biologe Rob Wallace erklärt, wie Pandemien entstehen und warum sie sich global ausbreiten. In seiner Analyse berücksichtigt er die evolutionäre Dynamik der Krankheitserreger ebenso wie die gegenwärtigen ökologischen und ökonomischen Strukturen.

2021 ist ein Jahr der Zäsur. Mit der Bundestagswahl endet nach 16 Jahren die Ära Merkel, und in einer historischen Entscheidung stärkt das Bundesverfassungsgericht die Freiheitsrechte der jüngeren Generation. Die Ökologie steht nun endlich im Zentrum aller Zukunftsfragen: Wirtschaft, Verkehr, Ernährung, aber auch Wissenschaft, Journalismus und Politik - elementare Bereiche der Gesellschaft müssen neu gedacht werden. Große Umbrüche stehen bevor. Und es hängt viel davon ab, ob wir gemeinsame Lösungen finden.

Stare all'aperto ci fa bene perché il nostro corpo, muovendosi nell'ambiente naturale, scarica elettricità statica, neutralizza tossine, dissolve ormoni dello stress, regolarizza le funzioni cardiocircolatorie. Gli innumerevoli benefici sono anche sul piano psicologico: scarichiamo emozioni, chiariamo la mente, rigeneriamo l'attenzione, prendiamo più efficacemente decisioni, elaboriamo soluzioni e idee. Proprio oggi dunque, che viviamo così lontani dai ritmi e dai modi con cui siamo cresciuti come specie, è necessario più che mai imparare ciò che la natura ha da insegnarci.

Ants have been walking the Earth since the age of the dinosaurs. Today there are one million ants for every one of us. The closer you get to ants, the more human they look: they build megacities, grow crops, raise livestock, tend their young and infirm, and even make vaccines. They also have a darker side: they wage war, enslave rivals and rebel against their oppressors. From fearsome army ants, who stage 12-hour hunting raids where they devour thousands, to gentle leafcutters gardening in their peaceful underground kingdoms, every ant is engineered by nature to fulfil a role.

Sally Coulthard explores the miraculous world of the earthworm, the modest little creature without whom life as we know it would not be possible. For Charles Darwin - who estimated every acre of land contained 53,000 earthworms - the humble earthworm was the most important creature on the planet. And yet, most people know almost nothing about these little engineers of the earth. We take them for granted but, without the earthworm, the world's soil would be barren and our gardens, fields and farms wouldn't be able to grow the food and support the animals we need to survive.

As our civilization careens towards a precipice of climate breakdown, ecological destruction and gaping inequality, people are losing their existential moorings. Our dominant worldview of disconnection, which tells us we are split between mind and body, separate from each other and at odds with the natural world, has passed its expiration date. Yet another world is possible. Award-winning author Jeremy Lent investigates humanity's age-old questions - who am I? why am I? how should I live? - from a fresh perspective.

Blending travelogue and poetic meditation on place, Jenna Butler draws listeners to the beauty and power of threatened landscapes, asking why some stories in recorded history are privileged....

Building on Falconer’s two acclaimed essays, "Signs and Wonders" and the Walkley Award-winning "The Opposite of Glamour", Signs and Wonders is a pioneering examination of how we are changing our culture, language and imaginations along with our climate. Is a mammoth emerging from the permafrost beautiful or terrifying? How is our imagination affected when something that used to be ordinary – like a car windscreen smeared with insects – becomes unimaginable?

With Grounded, Dr. Erin Yu Juin McMorrow takes us on a journey to explore the sacred interconnectedness between our soil and ourselves, seamlessly weaving the science of our broken carbon cycle and the oppression of the divine feminine into a powerful tapestry of hope and resilience.In Grounded, McMorrow guides us through the inner and outer work needed to restore the divine feminine and save our planet.

In the late 19th century, as humans came to realize that our rapidly industrializing and globalizing societies were driving other animal species to extinction, a movement to protect and conserve them was born. In Beloved Beasts, acclaimed science journalist Michelle Nijhuis traces the movement's history: from early battles to save charismatic species such as the American bison and bald eagle to today's global effort to defend life on a larger scale.

On the Alaska Peninsula, where exceptional landscapes are commonplace, a small river attracts attention far beyond its scale. Each year, from summer to early fall, brown bears and salmon gather at Brooks River to create one of North America's greatest wildlife spectacles. As the salmon leap from the cascade, dozens of bears are there to catch them, and thousands of people come to watch in person or on the National Park Service's popular Brooks Falls Bearcam. The Bears of Brooks Falls tells the story of this region and the bears that made it famous.
