HISTOIRE ET PROJECTIONS, DÉRÈGLEMENTS CLIMATIQUES ET SOCIÉTÉ. Le GIEC a été une réussite scientifique pour démontrer un réchauffement climatique sans précédent, mais un échec politique radical à convaincre la société civile et les politiques. Ce cours sous forme d'entretiens réunit Dominique Bourg, le philosophe de l'environnement, Jean Jouzel, le paléoclimatologue Vice-Président du GIEC jusqu'en 2015, et Hervé Le Treut Climatologue spécialiste de la simulation numérique pour répondre aux questions.

Nos últimos anos a ciência tem comprovado que as árvores e o homem têm muito mais em comum do que poderíamos imaginar. Assim como nós, elas se comunicam, mantêm relacionamentos, formam famílias, cuidam dos doentes e dos filhos, têm memória, defendem-se de agressores e competem ferozmente com outras espécies. Em A vida secreta das árvores, o engenheiro florestal alemão Peter Wohlleben alia seus 20 anos de experiência às últimas descobertas científicas para examinar o dia a dia desses seres fantásticos.

We are in the midst of an extinction event: the sixth mass extinction on Earth and one entirely caused by mankind. All species become extinct sooner or later, but we have accelerated that natural process several hundredfold, and now, it is happening right in front of our eyes. Extinction has a terrifying finality to it. And many species have already been lost to us forever; there is little we can do about that. What we can do, however, is reflect, remember, and ultimately acknowledge the unvarnished truth. 

An engrossing and revealing study of why we deem certain animals “pests” and others not—from cats to rats, elephants to pigeons—and what this tells us about our own perceptions, beliefs, and actions, as well as our place in the natural world A squirrel in the garden. A rat in the wall. A...

An innovative work of research and reportage, We Are the Middle of Forever places Indigenous voices at the center of conversations about today’s environmental crisis.

Você vai ver que embora sejam diferentes de nós de muitas formas impressionantes, eles são, ao mesmo tempo, mais parecidos conosco do que poderíamos imaginar.

Eines, das uns ermöglicht, die Rolle des Menschen als Teil des Ökosystems Erde neu zu bestimmen und die Zerstörung unserer Lebensgrundlagen zu verhindern.

If you are at all interested in life on our planet, then you need to know about insects. They are the most successful group of animals ever to have lived on Earth. Making up three quarters of all animal species, insects conquered the planet long ago. They were among the very first animals to appear on land and were the first to take to the air. Their total biomass is at least 10 times that of all humans and our livestock combined.

Hurricane Lizards and Plastic Squid is the first major audiobook by a biologist to focus on the fascinating story of how the natural world is adjusting, adapting, and sometimes measurably evolving in response to climate change. Lyrical and thought-provoking, this audiobook broadens the climate focus from humans to the wider lattice of life.

Cinq ans après l'accord de Paris sur le climat, l'auteur constate un échec de l'entreprise. Il explique que les émissions mondiales de CO2 ont continué à augmenter, notamment à cause des pays tels que la Chine et l'Inde qui ne se sont engagés à rien. Selon lui, les dépenses consacrées à la transition écologique en Europe ne pourront rien faire face à l'explosion des émissions du tiers-monde. La température moyenne de la planète a augmenté d'environ 1°c depuis un siècle et demi.

What is my state and other states' official state insect or butterfly? Is there somewhere in each state to go see the state insect or butterfly? Is my state doing anything to protect these or other insects? If you find yourself asking any of these questions, then this book is for you. This book will list a place in each state where you can see the state insect such as a conservatory, farm, or sanctuary. Because so many of these insects are being threatened or are endangered, many states have programs in effect to help protect them, which will also be listed.

For most of human history nature was held to be sacred and our God or gods were believed to be present everywhere in nature. When people in the West began to separate God and nature in the 17th century, it was not just a profound breach with thousands of years of accumulated wisdom and experience: it was also the root of how we have come to plunder the natural world and to promote our individual selves in unhealthy and destructive ways. Karen Armstrong argues that if we want to avert the looming environmental catastrophe, it is not enough to change our behaviour.

Smokescreen cuts through years of misunderstanding and misdirection to make an impassioned, evidence-based argument for a new era of forest management for the sake of the planet and the human race. Scientist and activist Chad T. Hanson explains how natural alarm over wildfire has been marshaled to advance corporate and political agendas, notably those of the logging industry. He also shows that, in contrast to the fear-driven narrative, contemporary research has demonstrated that forests in the US, North America, and around the world have a significant deficit of fire.

In this collection of essays from 2016-2021, the author explores a variety of themes, including the environment, war, agriculture, settler colonialism, racism, patriarchy, media criticism, "green energy", collapse, and the nature of civilization itself. Stylistically, the selections vary from reporting to analysis to personal storytelling. They previously appeared on Counterpunch, Resilience, Green Social Thought, and other online venues, but this is their first time in an audiobook .
