For many people, ecosystems may be a remote concept, yet we eat, drink, breathe and interface with them in every moment of our lives. In this engaging textbook, ecosystems scientist Dr. Mark Everard considers a diversity of "everyday things", including fascinating facts about their ecological origins: from the tea we drink, to the things we wear, read, and enjoy, to the ecology of communities and space flight, and the important roles played by germs and "unappealing creatures" such as slugs and wasps.

This book, 50 Things to Know About Bugs in Texas, by Megan Deeter, offers an approach to better understanding the microworld through the eyes of Texas’s smaller critters - the insects! Most books on insect biology will focus on very generalized regions, such as the entirety of the southwest rather than specific states. Although there's nothing wrong with that, this book pays close attention to the insects found in the geographically diverse Lonestar State.

Nell'agosto 2018 la quindicenne svedese Greta Thunberg decise di scioperare dalla scuola per richiamare l'attenzione sul mancato rispetto dell'Accordo di Parigi sul clima. Da allora ogni venerdì si mette davanti al Parlamento a Stoccolma, o in altre piazze del mondo, con un cartellone scritto da lei su cui si legge "Skolstrejk för Klimatet" (Sciopero dalla scuola per il clima). Quello slogan, quel gesto hanno ispirato migliaia di giovani e sono diventati un fenomeno globale.

Extinción nos revela con evidencia científica la crisis ecológica y climática que atraviesa nuestro planeta. En los próximos cincuenta años 4000 millones de personas vivirán en zonas no aptas para la producción de alimentos. Para 2080 América del Sur estará en una sequía extrema. El 60% de los mamíferos y el 70% de las aves son criados para alimentar humanos.

Parce que "l'eau est le sang de la planète" et parce qu'il y a urgence, le capitaine Paul Watson signe un nouveau manifeste coup de poing pour la sauvegarde des océans.

Un CV imaginaire, une fausse identité, et un crâne rasé... "Steak Machine" est le récit d'une infiltration de quarante jours dans un abattoir industriel. Dans ce reportage glaçant, le journaliste Geoffrey Le Guilcher partage et raconte le quotidien des ouvriers : les giclées de sang dans les yeux, les doigts qui se bloquent et les défonces nocturnes. Car dans une usine qui abat deux millions d'animaux par an, le traitement indigne réservé aux bêtes s'accompagne toujours d'une violence exercée sur les hommes.

Il mare: culla della vita, meraviglia della natura capace di dividere come di unire. Da sempre i poeti ne cantano lo splendore e la forza, e popoli interi l'hanno solcato nel corso dei millenni. Ancora oggi offre cibo, lavoro ed energia a metà della popolazione mondiale. Abbiamo chiamato Terra il nostro pianeta, eppure il 71 per cento della sua superficie è ricoperto da distese d'acqua, che nelle loro profondità ospitano l'80 per cento delle specie viventi; esse regolano il clima, producono il 50 per cento dell'ossigeno che respiriamo e assorbono un terzo dell'anidride carbonica prodotta dall'uomo.

Cosa accade negli allevamenti e nei macelli del nostro Paese? È veramente sicuro ciò che mangiamo? In un'inchiesta sull'industria italiana della carne e dei formaggi dell'eccellenza "Made in Italy", Giulia Innocenzi affianca animalisti, veterinari e allevatori per svelare un mondo oscuro in cui gli animali sopravvivono a malapena in spazi microscopici, sporchi, senz'aria; costretti a vere e proprie torture, malati e imbottiti di antibiotici che finiscono sulle nostre tavole.

In 1995, the National Trust for Scotland acquired Mar Lodge Estate in the heart of the Cairngorms. Home to over 5,000 species, this vast expanse of Caledonian woodlands, subarctic mountains, bogs, moors, roaring burns, and frozen lochs could be a place where environmental conservation and Highland field sports would exist in harmony. The only problem was that due to centuries of abuse by human hands, the ancient Caledonian pinewoods were dying, and it would take radical measures to save them.
