"We are at a turning point in human history. To stop climate breakdown and extinction, environmental movements need to be actively anti-racist and join struggles for social justice." - Carola Rackete In 2019. Carola Rackete became publicly known for docking the sea rescue vessel "Sea-Watch 3" in Italy and thereby challenging a national decree that contradicted international obligations to engage in sea rescue.

Himalaya is one of the world's most extraordinary geophysical, historical, environmental and social regions. Historian John Keay introduces us to the myriad mysteries of this vast, confounding and utterly fascinating corner of the planet, and makes the case that it is one of our most essential—and endangered—wonders. For centuries, Himalaya has captivated an illustrious succession of admirers, from explorers, surveyors and sportsmen, to botanists and zoologists, ethnologists and geologists, missionaries and mountaineers.

Die unmittelbaren Folgen der Klimakrise werden immer spürbarer. Und obwohl das Bewusstsein über die drastischen Ausmaße wächst, so ändert sich wenig. Wir alle verdrängen täglich die Klimakrise - und auch die damit zusammenhängenden Gefühle. Dabei sind Klimagefühle wie Trauer, Scham, Wut, Schuld und Angst keinesfalls pathologisch, sondern im Angesicht einer globalen Krise völlig normal. Wichtig ist nur, dass wir lernen, mit dieser Bandbreite an Gefühlen umzugehen: Was tun gegen die Enttäuschung über das ausbleibende Engagement der Politik.

This book exposes the truth that the climate change hoax is a political movement aimed at eliminating capitalism by spreading alarming disinformation that in order to "save the Earth" from global warming, we must reduce carbon dioxide emissions by switching from hydrocarbon fuels to renewable energies. The Truth About Energy, Global Warming, and Climate Change: Exposing Climate Lies in an Age of Disinformation reveals a science-based understanding of Earth's climate and temperature that Green New Deal proponents are trying to hide.

If you had a trillion dollars and a year to spend it for the good of the world and the advancement of science, what would you do? It's an unimaginably large sum, yet it's only around one per cent of world GDP, and about the valuation of Google, Microsoft or Amazon. It's a much smaller sum than the world found to bail out its banks in 2008 or deal with Covid-19. But what could you achieve with $1 trillion? You could solve the problem of the pandemic, for one, and eradicate malaria, and maybe cure all disease. You could end global poverty.

Wie eine Mutter und ihre Tochter von Pellworm die Politik bezwungen haben. Die Nordseeinseln Pellworm ist die Heimat von Sophie und Silke Backsen. Hier werden die Auswirkungen des Klimawandels besonders spürbar: Die Insel liegt heute bereits einen Meter unter dem Meeresspiegel, jede weitere Erhöhung desselben wäre katastrophal.

As wildfires char the American West, extreme weather transforms landscapes, glaciers retreat, and climate zones shift, we are undeniably experiencing the effects of the climate crisis in more and more destructive ways. Climate change is impacting every inhabited region of the world, but there is much we can still do. Unsettling explores human impacts on the environment through science, popular culture, personal narrative, and landscape. Science writer Elizabeth Weinberg explores how climate change is a direct result of white supremacy, colonialism, sexism, and heteronormativity.

Klimawandel und Abholzung der Regenwälder, Konsumexplosion und Vermüllung der Meere – all das bedroht die Vielfalt des Lebens auf der Erde und mehr noch: unser eigenes Überleben. Die 2020er-Jahre sind die letzte Chance umzusteuern. Viele innovative Ideen geben Hoffnung auf ein besseres Leben nicht gegen, sondern im Einklang mit der Natur. Ulrich Eberl bewertet fachlich fundiert die Lösungsstrategien. Er schildert anschaulich die spannendsten Projekte aus führenden Labors der Welt und stellt die Forscherinnen und Forscher vor, die mit aller Kraft dafür kämpfen, dass sie Wirklichkeit werden.

In 2020, COVID-19, the Australia bushfires, and other global threats served as vivid reminders that human and nonhuman fates are increasingly linked. Human use of nonhuman animals contributes to pandemics, climate change, and other global threats which, in turn, contribute to biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse, and nonhuman suffering.

De klimaforandringer, der længe har været forudsagt blandt verdens førende forskere på området, udvikler sig i dag hurtigere og endnu mere dramatisk, end det først blev stillet i udsigt. Så det er på tide at handle. Det mener også James Lovelock, der i 1970’erne fremsatte Gaia-teorien. I "Gaias forsvindende ansigt" kommer han med en sidste advarsel til Jordens befolkning. Planeten skal nok overleve, men hvis vi mennesker ønsker at være en del af dens fremtid, er vi nødt til at gøre noget nu. Den britiske forsker James Lovelock (f.

We still have time to change the world. From Greta Thunberg, the world's leading climate activist, comes the essential handbook for making it happen. You might think it's an impossible task: secure a safe future for life on Earth, at a scale and speed never seen, against all the odds. There is...

Durante l’epidemia, quando eravamo tutti chiusi nelle nostre case, e le macchine quasi non circolavano più, e molte fabbriche si sono dovute fermare, e abbiamo mangiato a casa, e non abbiamo gettato rifiuti per strada e nelle falde acquifere, il mondo quasi non assomigliava più a quello di prima. I fiumi, persino il Sarno, il più inquinato del Paese, sono tornati puliti, nei porti sono tornati i pesci, l’aria si è fatta più pulita anche nelle città più inquinate, dappertutto si è respirata un’aria nuova. Ma adesso cosa succede?

Der neueste Bericht des Weltklimarats hat es auf dramatische Weise bestätigt: Bereits heute bestimmt der Klimawandel unseren Alltag massiv. Und sein Einfluss wird schneller wachsen, als bislang angenommen. Nicht nur weltweit, auch in Deutschland häufen sich Phänomene wie extreme Hitze, lang anhaltende Dürre, Starkniederschläge mit Überschwemmungen. Und auch wir müssen uns die Frage stellen, wie sicher unsere Versorgung mit Trinkwasser ist.

More and more frequent extreme weather events occur each year, and wildlife everywhere is increasingly endangered. Science fiction or science fact, most climate experts see this as our world on climate change—and, according to polls, a majority of people around the globe agree. Climate Change for Dummies allows you to investigate this hottest of hotly debated issues for yourself—examining its causes, the way it affects our lives, and what we can all do to make a difference.

Take a walk through the climate regions of the world and discover the effect of climate change on plants and how plants are coping in changing climatic conditions. As extreme weather conditions take over our planet, what will be their effect on plants? How can plants cope with these changing conditions? Which plants already survive in extreme and changing environments?

Recent years have seen out-of-control wildfires rage across remote Brazilian rainforests, densely populated California coastlines, and major cities in Australia. What connects these separate events is more than immediate devastation and human loss of life. In Global Burning, Eve Darian-Smith contends that using fire as a symbolic and literal thread connecting different places around the world allows us to better understand the parallel, and related, trends of the growth of authoritarian politics and climate crises and their interconnected global consequences.
