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.

Was man wirklich über Klima-Kipppunkte wissen muss. Überschwemmungen, Hitzewellen, Dürren, Waldbrände – die Auswirkungen des immer extremeren Wetters sind auch hierzulande zunehmend spürbar. Aber all das ist erst der Anfang: Weil das 1,5-Grad-Limit nicht mehr zu halten ist und die Erderhitzung fortschreitet, drohen in naher Zukunft im Klimasystem mehrere sogenannte Kipppunkte überschritten zu werden. Die Folgen wären einschneidend, auch für Deutschland. Benjamin von Brackel und Toralf Staud liefern, was man über Kipppunkte wirklich wissen muss.

Story0
In 1999, Texas passed a landmark clean energy law, beginning a groundswell of new policies that promised to make the US a world leader in renewable energy. As Leah Stokes shows in Short Circuiting Policy, however, that policy did not lead to momentum in Texas, which failed to implement its solar laws or clean up its electricity system. Examining clean energy laws in Texas, Kansas, Arizona, and Ohio over 30 years Stokes argues that organized combat between advocate and opponent interest groups is central to explaining why states are not on track to address the climate crisis.

«Il futuro non è più quello di una volta», diceva Paul Valéry. E oggi più che mai, nel mondo dopo la pandemia, è diventato necessario ripensare al domani che ci aspetta. Ma in uno scenario che appare catastrofico e che impone di essere riconsiderato in tutto e per tutto, la prospettiva ambientale potrebbe essere l’unica risposta adeguata per fronteggiare le sfide che il presente ci pone. Siglare un nuovo Patto Atlantico delle democrazie aiuterebbe non solo a sconfiggere il virus, ma anche a ricostruire l’economia e proteggere il clima; sarebbe un tentativo per rendere concreta una solidarietà soltanto proclamata.

While politicians, entrepreneurs, and even school children could tell you that sustainability is an important and nearly universal value, many of them, and many of us, may struggle to define the term, let alone trace its history. What is sustainability? Is it always about the environment? What science do we need to fully grasp what it requires? What does sustainability mean for business? How can governments plan for a sustainable future?

When houses are flattened, towns submerged, and people stranded without electricity or even food, we attribute the suffering to "natural disasters" or "acts of God." But what if they're neither? What if we, as a society, are bringing these catastrophes on ourselves? That's the provocative theory of Catastrophe in the Making, the first audiobook to recognize Hurricane Katrina not as a "perfect storm," but a tragedy of our own making - and one that could become commonplace.

The great economic boom times in American history have come because of fortuitous discoveries. Natural resources (coal first, then oil) fueled vast economic and industrial expansions, which helped create and supply new markets. The last genuine economic game changer was the technology boom of the 1990s, which gave the U.S. a global competitive advantage based on electronics and silicon. In defiance of the recessionary times (in 1990), he saw the coming boom. Now, in 2013, he sees the threshold of another.

From the 1992 Rio Earth Summit to the 2009 Copenhagen Climate Conference there was a concerted international effort to stop climate change. Yet greenhouse gas emissions increased, atmospheric concentrations grew, and global warming became an observable fact of life. In this book, philosopher Dale Jamieson explains what climate change is, why we have failed to stop it, and why it still matters what we do.

On Earth Day 1970 20 million Americans displayed their commitment to a clean environment. It was called the largest demonstration in human history, and it permanently changed the nation's political agenda. By Earth Day 2000 participation had exploded to 500 million people in 167 countries. The seemingly simple idea—a day set aside to focus on protecting our natural environment—was the brainchild of U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin.

Since it was first proposed in the US House of Representatives, the Green New Deal has been hotly debated. The intent was not simply to fight climate change or address a specific environmental concern, but rather to tackle how climate change and other environmental challenges affect the economy, the vulnerable, and social justice—and vice versa. In Science for a Green New Deal, Eric Davidson dissects this legislative resolution.
