In atemberaubendem Tempo haben die Menschen den Planeten ihren Bedürfnissen unterworfen. Im 21. Jahrhundert stehen sie vor den Scherben ihres Tuns: Die natürlichen Ressourcen erschöpft, die Klimaerwärmung eine tödliche Bedrohung, globale Pandemien eine akute Gefahr. Werden wir auch diese Krise meistern? Die Bestsellerautoren Johannes Krause und Thomas Trappe zeigen, was wir aus der Vergangenheit für unser Überleben lernen können - und welche Gefahren in der zügellosen Kraft des Menschen liegen.

Madagascar is a place of change. A biodiversity hotspot and the fourth largest island on the planet, it has been home to a spectacular parade of animals, from giant flightless birds and giant tortoises on the ground, to agile lemurs leaping through the treetops. Some species live on, many have vanished in the distant or recent past. Over vast stretches of time, Madagascar’s forests have expanded and contracted in response to shifting climates and the hand of people is clear in changes during the last 1,000 years or so.

Wie steht es um unser Klima? Was wissen wir über Klimawandel in der Erdgeschichte und was kommt auf uns zu? Was bedeutet die Erderwärmung für Wetterextreme, Golfstrom und Meeresspiegel? Was hat es mit den gefürchteten Kipppunkten auf sich, und können wir den Klimawandel noch rechtzeitig stoppen? Stefan Rahmstorf ist ein weltweit renommierter Klimaforscher und Leiter der Abteilung Erdsystemanalyse am Potsdam-Institut für Klimafolgenforschung. Er versteht es wie kaum ein anderer, den Stand der Wissenschaft klar, verständlich und pointiert zu erläutern und dabei auch kontroverse öffentliche Debatten anzusprechen.

Almost daily, scientists are sounding dire warnings about the effects of climate change. Our young will bear an unprecedented burden. They are eager to discover what can be done, as time slips away. But few of them - or us - are aware that global warming is but one facet of a looming planetary catastrophe.

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.

Syukuro Manabe is perhaps the leading pioneer of modern climate modeling. Beyond Global Warming is his compelling firsthand account of how the scientific community came to understand the human causes of climate change, and how numerical models using the world's most powerful computers have been instrumental to these vital discoveries.

Wie kommen wir aus der Klimakrise? Reicht die Energie von Sonne und Wind? Sind Elektroautos wirklich umweltfreundlich? Ist Wasserstoff der Heilsbringer? Was können wir selber tun, auch wenn es uns schwerfällt, unsere Lebensgewohnheiten zu ändern? Solche Fragen stellt man am besten Volker Quaschning, einem der weltweit führenden Experten für regenerative Energien. Mit seiner Frau Cornelia Quaschning erklärt er an konkreten Beispielen, wie der Umstieg auf eine nachhaltige Wirtschaft gelingen kann. Aber eines machen die beiden auch klar: Die Zeit wird knapp.

We owe it to our fellow humans - and other species - to save them from the catastrophic harm caused by climate change. Philosopher Elizabeth Cripps approaches climate justice not just as an abstract idea but as something that should motivate us all. Using clear reasoning and poignant examples, starting from irrefutable science and uncontroversial moral rules, she explores our obligations to each other and to the non-human world, unravels the legacy of colonialism and entrenched racism, and makes the case for immediate action.

Únete a la lucha. La lucha no solo por nuestro futuro inmediato, sino por el futuro de las generaciones venideras. En 2019, las concentraciones atmosféricas de gases de efecto invernadero alcanzaron un nivel histórico, y nuestro margen de maniobra para actuar va disminuyendo rápidamente.

Miguel Pajares se adentra en el dilema sobre la consideración de refugiadas de las personas expulsadas de sus países por el cambio climático. Inicia el audiolibro con dos capítulos sobre la crisis climática que responden incluso a las más fieras teorías negacionistas. Su análisis también indigna por la inacción de nuestros gobiernos que desde hace décadas conocen la situación y han actuado de forma irresponsable.

The Little Ice Age tells the story of the turbulent, unpredictable, and often very cold years of modern European history, how climate altered historical events, and what they mean in the context of today’s global warming.

Today, the staggering scale and scope of what we have done to the planet is impossible to ignore: the seasons of fire and flood have crossed into plain view. Fire and Flood is a thoroughly enjoyable comprehensive history of climate change from veteran environmental journalist Eugene Linden. Linden retells the story of the modern climate change era decade by decade, tracking the progress of four ticking clocks.

The international scientific consensus is that we have less than a decade to drastically slash our collective carbon emissions to keep global heating to 1.5 degrees and avert catastrophe. This means that many of us have to cut our individual carbon footprints by over 80 percent to 2.5 tons per person per year by 2030. But where to start? Grounded in meticulous research and yet accessible to all, Living the 1.5 Degree Lifestyle is a journey toward a life of quality over quantity and sufficiency over efficiency as we race to save our only home from catastrophic heating.

Despite the undeniable fact that Indigenous communities are among the most affected by climate devastation, Indigenous science is nowhere to be found in mainstream environmental policy or discourse. And while holistic land, water, and forest management practices born from millennia of Indigenous knowledge systems have much to teach all of us, Indigenous science has long been ignored, otherized, or perceived as "soft"--the product of a systematic, centuries-long campaign of racism, colonialism, extractive capitalism, and delegitimization.

This brief, lucid book by the Director of Science at Royal Botanical Gardens takes you on an unforgettable tour of the natural world, showing how biodiversity—the rich variety of life in the world and in our own backyards—provides both the source and the salvation of our existence. Combining inspiration stories and the latest scientific research, Alex Antonelli reveals the wonders of biodiversity at a genetic, species and ecosystem level—what it is, how it works, and why it's the most important tool in our battle against climate change.

You don't need to buy stocks or found a start-up in order to build up enough wealth to sustain you through a crisis like COVID-19. You may not even need a promotion. All you need to do is develop great spending habits. With jobs disappearing overnight and an economic downturn lying in wait, there has never been a better time for us to start taking saving seriously. Which is why now is the moment for champion saver (professional Scrooge, if you will) R.A. Dalkey to share an essential truth: Sensible saving isn't just good for your bank balance, it’s good for the planet too.

In Firmament, atmospheric scientist and science communicator Simon Clark offers a rare and accessible tour of the ins and outs of the atmosphere and how we know what we know about it. From the workings of its different layers to why carbon dioxide is special, from pioneers like Pascal to the unsung heroes working in the field to help us understand climate change, Firmament introduces us to an oft-overlooked area of science and not only lays the ground work for us to better understand the debates surrounding the climate today.

In A Guide to the Climate Apocalypse, Vítězslav Kremlík delivers a refreshing and objective analysis of the history and science behind climate change. Books about climate change frequently endorse a narrow, often malicious angle of total indoctrination or abject denial of the official story. Kremlík employs a direct and detailed critique of not only the studies that have led to our current understanding of large-scale changes in the weather, but also the political biases and motives behind global action taken in response to it.

In The Environmentalist’s Dilemma, award-winning journalist Arno Kopecky zeroes in on the core predicament of our times: The planet may be dying, but humanity’s doing better than ever. To acknowledge both sides of this paradox is to enter a realm of difficult decisions: Should we take down the government or try to change it from the inside? Is it okay to compare climate change to Hitler? Is hope naive or indispensable? How do you tackle collective delusion? Should we still have kids? And can we take them to Disneyland?

This audiobook is an alarm. The loudest one I could find. I was chosen to write this audiobook to alert the world of our imminent danger. I wrote this audiobook in four days. During that time I learned things I never knew or even thought about in my entire life. The knowledge I acquired from my cosmic sources shocked me. But, the information contained herein is what they wanted me to relate. I've done my best to present the information in a comprehensive yet digestible form, even though many of you will find this very hard to swallow.
