One of the essential books of our time, Reclaiming the Sacred draws on the work of thousands of psychologists and economists, cosmologists and activists, saints and poets to ground us in our inherent joy, purpose, and belonging—both for our own sakes and the sake of the world. It starts with an overview of the science of happiness, highlighting the things that most nourish human well-being—and some that don’t, most notably money and possessions.

A captivating drama from the frontlines of the race to save birds set against the devastating loss of one third of the avian population. Three years ago, headlines delivered shocking news: nearly three billion birds in North America have vanished over the past fifty years. No species has been...

Minding the Climate investigates this problem in the neuroscience of decision-making. Ann-Christine Duhaime, MD, points to the evolution of the human brain during eons of resource scarcity. The brain adapted to prioritize short-term survival over more uncertain long-term outcomes. But the resulting behavioral architecture is poorly suited to the present, when scarcity is a lesser concern and slow-moving challenges like environmental issues present the greatest danger.

It's hard to watch the news, scroll through social media, or listen to the radio without hearing or seeing something disturbing about the climate emergency. This can trigger all sorts of emotions: worry, anger, sadness, guilt, and even grief but also often over-looked positive emotions like motivation, connection, care, and abundance that support mental health and climate action for sustainable longevity. Written by psychologists with extensive experience, this audiobook shows you how to harness these emotions, validate them, and transform them into positive action.

Mit kühlem Kopf durch heiße Zeiten! Während die Temperaturen im Sommer immer weiter in die Höhe schießen, müssen wir uns diesen Winter verdammt warm anziehen. Eine Situation, in die wir uns durch viele falsche Entscheidungen in der Vergangenheit selbst gebracht haben. Wussten Sie, dass in Finnland die Grünen auf Kernenergie setzen? Und dass, würden wir ganz auf Wind und Sonne setzen, in einer windstillen Nacht schon nach 40 Minuten unsere Energiespeicher leer sind? Aber was erwartet man von einer Nation, die schon mit dem Bau eines Flughafens überfordert ist.

Using the lens of ecopsychology, Returning the Self to Nature shows that the pervasive and extreme forms of narcissism we find in many modern societies are fundamentally the result of alienation from the natural world. But it doesn't have to be that way. Returning the Self to Nature is written for the person who no longer wishes to function in a world that revolves around selfish, disconnected identity models and yearns to step into healthy relationships with one's self, one's community, and our planet.

Unsere Welt ist im Wandel, das Klima verändert sich. Arten, die lange auf unserer Erde existiert haben, verschwinden und die Ressourcen werden knapp. Die Menschen sehen langsam ein, dass Entwicklung nicht immer gut ist. Wir beuten unsere Erde aus, dabei sollten wir sie pflegen, denn wir haben nur diese eine. Langsam setzt jedoch ein Umdenken ein, die Menschen versuchen, Fehler aus der Vergangenheit rückgängig zu machen. Es wird versucht, CO₂-Emissionen zu reduzieren, Ressourcen der Erde zu schonen und mehr auf die Natur zu achten.

Get Real: A Positive Solution to Climate Change will revolutionize your understanding of the global climate issue. Adapting land management practices to a holistic and regenerative model, David Munson Jr. lays out in plain words how industry and individuals can continue using oil and natural gas, but changes the game with his tangible program of remineralizing the soil and making the Earth carbon negative. From shifts in agriculture techniques to the swift cultivation of prairie grass, listeners take a journey through the positive solutions needed.

A young meteorologist checking a mountain top weather station in Kinlochleven discovers the body of a missing man entombed in ice. Cameron Brodie, a Glasgow detective, sets out on a hazardous journey to the isolated and ice-bound village. He has his own reasons for wanting to investigate a murder case so far from his beat. Brodie must face up to the ghosts of his past and to a killer determined to bury forever the chilling secret that his investigation threatens to expose.

Burning fossil fuels will cause catastrophic global warming: this is what top American oil executives were told by scientists in 1959. But they ignored that warning. Instead, they developed one of the biggest, most polluting oil sources in the world—the oil sands in Alberta, Canada. As investigative journalist Geoff Dembicki reveals in this explosive book, the decades-long conspiracy to keep the oil sands flowing into the US would turn out to be one of the biggest reasons for the world's failure to stop the climate crisis.

A youth movement is reenergizing global environmental activism. The "climate generation"—late millennials and iGen, or Generation Z—is demanding that policy makers and government leaders take immediate action to address the dire outcomes predicted by climate science. Those inheriting our planet's environmental problems expect to encounter challenges, but they may not have the skills to grapple with the feelings of powerlessness and despair that may arise when they confront this seemingly intractable situation.

At first, Erika Bolstad knew only one thing about her great-grandmother, Anna: she was a homesteader on the North Dakota prairies in the early 1900s before her husband committed her to an asylum under mysterious circumstances. As Erika's mother was dying, she revealed more: their family still owned the mineral rights to Anna's land—and oil companies were interested in the black gold beneath the prairies. Their family, Erika learned, could get rich thanks to the legacy of a woman nearly lost to history.

Demokratie und Wohlstand, ein längeres Leben, mehr Gleichberechtigung und Bildung: Der Kapitalismus hat viel Positives bewirkt. Zugleich ruiniert er jedoch Klima und Umwelt, sodass die Menschheit nun existenziell gefährdet ist. "Grünes Wachstum" soll die Rettung sein, aber Wirtschaftsexpertin und Bestsellerautorin Ulrike Herrmann hält dagegen: Verständlich und messerscharf erklärt sie in ihrem neuen Hörbuch, warum wir stattdessen "grünes Schrumpfen" brauchen. Die Klimakrise verschärft sich täglich, aber konkret ändert sich fast nichts.

Stoppt die Zerstörung der Meere! Ein dramatischer Appell für den Schutz unseres größten Ökosystems. Die Diskussionen über Klimawandel und Umweltschutz werden so hitzig geführt wie nie zuvor. Trotzdem ändert sich wenig. Internationale Klimakonferenzen kommen und gehen, aber konkrete Entscheidungen werden kaum getroffen. Mit seinem Manifest "Wenn der Ozean stirbt, sterben auch wir" richtet Paul Watson seinen Aufruf nicht zum ersten Mal an Bürger und Regierungen, um uns zum Umdenken zu bewegen. Sein Credo: Man kann die Welt nicht verändern, ohne Wellen zu schlagen.

Desde hace unos años se suceden episodios de muerte súbita y generalizada de árboles en bosques de todo el mundo. En muchos casos el cambio climático y las sequías desempeñan un papel importante, pero no son la única causa, ya que se combina con la historia de la explotación humana y con la proliferación de plagas y de incendios cada vez más virulentos. El profesor Francisco Lloret recorre algunos de los bosques más importantes de Norteamérica, Patagonia, Europa y África para mostrarnos, con luminosa claridad y rigor, los procesos que están provocando su colapso.
