In an illuminating analysis, Dr. Genevieve Guenther shows that the climate debate is not, in fact, neatly polarized, with Republicans obstructing climate action and Democrats advancing climate solutions. Partisans on the right and the left often repeat the same fossil-fuel talking points, and this repetition produces a centrist consensus upholding the status quo, even as global heating accelerates. Weaving this analysis through fascinating critical histories of the terms that dominate the language of climate politics Dr. Guenther shows how this consensus is established.

Milk. It's in our coffee, on our cereal. We see it in processed form. It's there in almond form, or made from oats or soy. Milk celebrates the majesty of this noble liquid, and delves into the pretenders to its throne, from formula to Mylk. It looks at the transformation of what a milk-producer eats into one of the most nutrient dense foods available, and how that can be transformed again into the butter, cheese and clotted cream that we know and love today. It's an exploration of the science, history and politics of what makes mammals different from every other life form on earth.

Story
Imagine one day you receive a letter in the mail that informs you that a large energy company is planning to build a massive pipeline through your property. That they have the legal right to do so, whether you like it or not, because this project is in the "public interest"-because the pipeline will be carrying natural gas, the so-called "bridge fuel" that politicians have been peddling for decades as the path to a clean, green energy future.

Story
Countering the conventional narrative that Florida's tourism industry suffered during the Great Depression, this book shows that the 1930s were the starting point for much that characterizes modern Florida's tourism. David Nelson argues that state and federal government programs designed to reboot the economy during this decade are crucial to understanding the state today.

Story
As global rates of plant and animal extinctions mount, anxieties about the future of the earth's ecosystems are fueling ever more ambitious efforts at conservation, which draw on Western scientific principles to manage species and biodiversity. In Revenant Ecologies, Audra Mitchell argues that these responses not only ignore but also magnify powerful forms of structural violence like colonialism, racism, genocide, extractivism, ableism, and heteronormativity, ultimately contributing to the destruction of unique life forms and ecosystems.

Story
Nel volgere di pochi decenni, l’umanità è andata incontro a una rivoluzione nelle sue abitudini ancestrali. Senza che ce ne accorgessimo, la nostra specie, che fino a poco tempo fa viveva immersa nella natura abitando ogni angolo della Terra, ha finito per abitare una parte davvero irrisoria delle terre emerse del pianeta. Cosa è accaduto? Da specie generalista in grado di vivere dovunque, ci siamo trasformati, in poche generazioni, in una specie in grado di vivere in una sola e specifica nicchia ecologica: la città.

Spostarsi con le proprie gambe, senza consumare altro che la propria energia. Assaporare un passo più lento, accorgersi degli alberi, dei negozi, delle persone che incontriamo lungo il tragitto. Arrivare al lavoro svegli e pronti ad affrontare la giornata. Ma anche godersi il silenzio di un sentiero tra i campi, sfogare le emozioni spingendo sui pedali, o sapere che si potrà arrivare direttamente davanti al cinema senza preoccuparsi del parcheggio: sono tante le felicità possibili se si sceglie di vivere una vita a due ruote.

Story
The Pasagoula River is the largest unobstructed river in the continuous United States. Because of this lack of restraint, the river has been left to rise and fall naturally with the seasons, overflowing annually into the adjoining bottomland surrounded by some of the most ecologically diverse woodlands, in North America. Herman Murrah lived his entire life on the banks and in the swamp surrounding this river in southeast Mississippi. In this book, Herman's son Davy details the adventures that continue to inspire young conservationists in the fight to protect our remaining natural ecosystems.
