That man should have dominion “over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth” is a prophecy that has hardened into fact. So pervasive are human impacts on the planet that it’s said we live in a new geological epoch: the Anthropocene. The question we now face is: Can we change nature, this time in order to save it? Elizabeth Kolbert, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth Extinction, takes a hard look at the new world we are creating.

Most agree on the urgent need for climate action, yet we are often divided on how to stop the destruction of the natural world. Earth for Sale exposes the danger of governments giving over this responsibility to powerful private interests, namely the same energy, chemical, agribusiness, and bottled water corporations that brought us to this ecological brink.

In ihrem neuen Hörbuch konfrontiert Claudia Kemfert uns mit den heute neu gestellten klimapolitischen Fragen und deckt auf, wo Mythen gefährliche Realitäten verschleiern. Sie zeigt, welche Technologien noch funktionieren könnten und wie der Gasausstieg Deutschland zum Technologie-Weltmarktführer macht – wenn uns die Zeit bleibt. Ein Hörbuch für alle, die sich der Illusion verweigern, dass es noch einfache Antworten gibt. Klima und Wirtschaft lassen sich nicht gegeneinander ausspielen.

A scathing investigation into the apocalyptic thinking of the Christian nationalists, tech-bro reactionaries, and populist survivalists who increasingly define the contemporary right—and a recipe for how to fight them. As the planet burns and shared reality melts, a new iteration of the far...

If 20 percent of the population implemented half the solutions in this book, it would solve the biggest global problems. All without writing to politicians, joining protests, signing petitions, or being angry at the people that are causing the problems. Good solutions are often different from conventional environmental wisdom. The average American adult has a carbon footprint of 30 tons per year. Replacing a petroleum car with an electric car will cut 2 tons. But if you live in a cold climate and you switch from electric heat to a rocket mass heater, you will cut 27 tons!

In The Vanishing Earth, James Crawford, born into a landscape and family steeped in fossil fuels, takes listeners to the literal and ideological frontiers of extraction. Beginning with the story of humanity's decoupling from nature, Crawford embarks on an epic journey to five resource landscapes rapidly trending towards exhaustion: landscapes of rock, metal, sand, water and thought.

Haben Sie das Gefühl, die Welt sei aus den Fugen geraten? Sie sind nicht allein - die meisten Menschen haben in den letzten Jahren einen Realitätsschock erlitten: Unser Bild der Welt hat sich oft als kollektive Illusion entpuppt. Wer hätte damit gerechnet, dass Trump die Wahl gewinnt und die Briten für den Brexit stimmen? Dass Hunderttausende nach Europa flüchten und dabei Zehntausende sterben? Dass so viele Demokratien nach rechts kippen? Dass der Klimawandel so schnell spürbar wird und über Nacht eine weltweite Klima-Jugendbewegung entsteht.

An eye-opening and essential tour of the vanishing world in the age of climate change and rising tides. What if Atlantis wasn't a myth, but an early precursor to a new age of great flooding? Across the globe, scientists and civilians alike are noticing rapidly rising sea levels, and higher and...

Wir sind in einem Thriller. Sie und ich. Nicht als Hörer und Autor. Als Akteure. Besagter Thriller schreibt sich seit Menschengedenken fort und wechselt dabei immer wieder den Titel. Aktuell heißt er Klimakrise. Pandemie. Digitalisierung. Terror. In der Vergangenheit hieß er Kalter Krieg, Wettrüsten, davor Zweiter Weltkrieg, Erster Weltkrieg. Doch nie waren wir so vielen potenziellen Schrecknissen gleichzeitig ausgesetzt wie heute. Falls Sie also dem Klimaschutz vorübergehend Ihre Aufmerksamkeit entzogen haben, um mit einer Pandemie zurechtzukommen, ist das schlichtweg menschlich.

The Hype About Hydrogen is essential for anyone who hopes that hydrogen will be a major solution to the climate crisis. The good news? We don't need it to be.

Mit einem klugen Zwischenruf intervenieren fünf Philosophinnen und Philosophen in ein Stimmengewirr, das anderes braucht als populistische Empörung oder müdes Abwinken. Wer eine Position vertreten will, muss sie erst einmal begründen können. Dieses Buch ermutigt alle, die unsere Zukunft nicht den Lautesten überlassen wollen – und zeigt, wie nützlich die Philosophie für die großen Entscheidungen der Gegenwart ist.

The world isn’t going to burn. It already is. The World Is on Fire is a devastating, clear-eyed walkthrough of the climate crisis as it actually exists. Not as a theory, not as a threat, but as a daily reality. JJ doesn’t waste time with doomer panic or soft-focus optimism. Instead, he tells the story straight: how we lit the fuse with coal and oil, how the corporations lied, how the system got stuck, and how the poorest people on Earth are already paying the price.

Mass Extinction Number 6: The End of Our Time on Earth is a sobering and powerful exploration of the ongoing ecological collapse unfolding in the 21st century—a catastrophe not caused by an asteroid or supervolcano, but by us.
