Sinossi

Lost Forests explores the disappearance of ancient woodlands due to climate change and human activity, revealing profound implications for our planet's ecological balance. The book examines paleobotanical evidence to understand the driving forces behind these forest extinctions, offering lessons to safeguard modern ecosystems. For example, the coal forests of the Carboniferous period provide insights into how environmental shifts can decimate entire ecosystems. The book uniquely combines paleobotanical research with ecological modeling, moving beyond simple descriptions to understand the processes driving forest change. It starts by introducing the concept of "lost forests," progresses through case studies of specific extinct forests, and then delves into the roles of climate change and human activity. Finally, it emphasizes the need for proactive measures to prevent further losses, highlighting the fragility of biodiversity and the consequences of unsustainable practices.

    Good Grief - On Loving Pets Here...

    An unexpected, poignant, and personal account of loving and losing pets, exploring the singular bonds we have with our companion animals, and how to grieve them once they’ve passed. 
    E.B. Bartels has had a lot of pets—dogs, birds, fish, tortoises. As varied a bunch as they are, they’ve taught her one universal truth: to own a pet is to love a pet, and to own a pet is also—with rare exception—to lose that pet in time. 
    But while we have codified traditions to mark the passing of our fellow humans, most cultures don’t have the same for pets. Bartels takes us from Massachusetts to Japan, from ancient Egypt to the modern era, in search of the good pet death. We meet veterinarians, archaeologists, ministers, and more, offering an idiosyncratic, inspiring array of rituals—from the traditional (scattering ashes, commissioning a portrait), to the grand (funereal processions, mausoleums), to the unexpected (taxidermy, cloning). The central lesson: there is no best practice when it comes to mourning your pet, except to care for them in death as you did in life, and find the space to participate in their end as fully as you can. 
    Punctuated by wry, bighearted accounts of Bartels’s own pets and their deaths, Good Grief is a cathartic companion through loving and losing our animal family. 
    Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
