China is setting an example for the US - and the world - to follow. We should all take note. China has been able to manage the difficult task of reducing pollution without slowing down economic growth. What can the US take away from China’s unique experience? Although the world often pits the US against China, when it comes to saving the planet, any progress by any country in reducing emissions is good for everyone. China has presided over the fastest industrialization and the fastest cleanup in history - it is worth taking a closer look to see how we can do better.

La crisis ambiental se cobrará más vidas y golpeará más duraderamente a México que el Covid-19, simplemente no hemos querido verlo.

Economics for People and the Planet, a collection of essays by James K. Boyce on the environment, inequality, and the economy, argues that there is not an inexorable trade-off between advancing human well-being and having a clean and safe environment. The goal of economic policy should be to grow the good things that improve our well-being and environmental quality and reduce the bad things that harm humans and nature. To reorient the economy for these ends, we will need to achieve a more egalitarian distribution of wealth and power.

El cambio climático es el problema más acuciante al que nos hemos enfrentado jamás. La forma en que lo abordemos en los próximos treinta años determinará absolutamente el mundo en el que viviremos y el legado que dejaremos a las futuras generaciones. En este libro, Christiana Figueres y Tom Rivett-Carnac - los artífices del histórico Acuerdo de París - nos dibujan dos posibles escenarios y nos advierten de las catastróficas consecuencias de no hacer nada.

Es la historia más vieja del mundo: la de un desastre medioambiental y una tecnología que nos salva. La hemos repetido como un mantra desde el principio de los tiempos porque hasta ahora se ha revelado cierta; somos el animal más peligroso de la sabana, hemos vencido a las bestias, a las tormentas y a la enfermedad. Pero la estrategia evolutiva que nos ha mantenido vivos desde el principio de la misma vida nos empuja ahora al borde de la extinción. Estamos tan atrapados que ya nos parece inevitable.

The Great Barrier Reef is dying. Extreme weather is becoming all too familiar. And the Coalition government is divided and paralysed. In this vivid, urgent essay, Anna Krien explores the psychology and politics of a warming world.

This audiobook explains based on science and facts how you can be the solution to the big crises we will face to cover our basic needs (food, water, health). It’s just a question of time before the next economic crisis. In the coming years, we will all directly suffer from climate change in one way or another including our kids and grandkids. The rich get richer, banks steal from us, while so many don’t even have decent food or health care.... There is an alternative system in which you can lead toward a solution to these crises.

Our world is changing, the climate is changing. Species that have long existed on our planet are disappearing and resources are becoming scarce. People are slowly realizing that development is not always good. We are exploiting our earth, but we should be looking after it, because we only have this one. Slowly, however, a rethink is taking place and people are trying to undo past mistakes. Attempts are being made to reduce CO₂ emissions, conserve the earth's resources and pay more attention to nature. But once we have become accustomed to a certain standard of living, it is difficult to give it up again or change our habits.

Today, we are at a turning point as we face ecological and political crises that are rooted in conflicts over the land itself. But these problems can be solved if we draw on elements of our tradition that move us toward a new commonwealth - a community founded on the well-being of all people and the natural world.

Have you worried that all that we can seem to do so far is to debate whether climate change exists, whether it's mankind's fault, and whether anything should be done about it? Have you felt despair because while all of this debate continues, you or your family or your friends are standing waist deep in flood waters? This book isn't a debate about climate change. The facts described in nearly all of the global warming books takes care of doing that. This book is about realistic solutions that can be implemented globally to treat the symptoms of climate change!

Five miles off the South Carolina coast, Darden and Catherina are getting their promised forty acres, all of it undersea. Like every Black “mer,” they’ve been experimentally modified to adapt to their new subaquatic home - and have met with extreme resistance from white supremacists. Darden has an inspired plan for resolution. For both those on land and the webbed bottom-dwellers below, Darden is hoping to change the wave of the future.

This essay summarizes the fundamental physics of climate change, and provides commentary on some of the political controversy surrounding it.

Saving the climate is our common duty. With each passing day, climate change is causing Pacific islands to disappear into the sea, accelerating the extinction of species at alarming proportions, and aggravating a water shortage that has affected the entire world. In short, climate change can no longer be denied - it threatens our existence on earth.

In the 1930s, the last wolves disappeared from Yellowstone National Park. Without them, elk herds overran the plains. Bears starved, rabbit families shrunk and birds flew away to new homes. Then plants and trees started to die off, too—even the flow of rivers was affected. Could the park be saved...by the wolves it had lost? After years of planning, in 1995 a team of experts was ready to find out. They carefully relocated 14 wolves from the Canadian Rockies to Yellowstone. This is the story of their homecoming.

For the last few years, and especially in 2011, a new extreme weather event seems to pop up each week. Some decide to stick around: Texas and Oklahoma have been suffering from historic droughts for six months, with no sign of relief. No sooner does Hurricane Irene disappear than Tropical Storm Lee appears to flood Louisiana and stir up wildfires in nearby Texas. We seem beset by more, and more extreme, heatwaves, droughts, wildfires, torrential rainstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes, and blizzards than any of us can remember.

"Earth's Fever: The Unraveling Climate and Our Race to Restore Balance" is more than a title; it's a testament to the human spirit's capacity to understand, to care, and to act.
