  Slippery, wet, and strange: Fish can be easier to think of as food than as fellow animals. But what do we know about these creatures we meet on our dinner table and how they got there? But with warming oceans, diminishing fish stocks, and questions about fish farming practices, where will the fish come from? 
   
  In Every Last Fish, Rose George dives into these questions by exploring the vast industries that support our appetite for fish sticks and salmon burgers, and the colossal illegal fishing trade whose practices and standards are unmonitored and often dangerous. Journeying to the bottom of the ocean and back, she examines the machinations of this $200 billion food system―one that's growing rapidly even as fish populations disappear. 
   
  Along the way, George introduces us to the people on the front lines of fishes and fishing: fishermen, divers, marine biologists, fish fryers, and fishwives. Her journey ends at the fish counter, with guidance for listeners looking to make better choices, both for the ocean's health and their own. 
   
  Ranging from Alaska to the United Kingdom to Senegal and beyond, Every Last Fish is an unforgettable trip through the ocean's inhabitants and workers.

  All Hell Breaking Loose - The...

  All Hell Breaking Loose is an eye-opening examination of climate change from the perspective of the U.S. military.The Pentagon, unsentimental and politically conservative, might not seem likely to be worried about climate change—still linked, for many people, with polar bears and coral reefs. Yet of all the major institutions in American society, none take climate change as seriously as the U.S. military. Both as participants in climate-triggered conflicts abroad, and as first responders to hurricanes and other disasters on American soil, the armed services are already confronting the impacts of global warming. The military now regards climate change as one of the top threats to American national security—and is busy developing strategies to cope with it.Drawing on previously obscure reports and government documents, renowned security expert Michael Klare shows that the U.S. military sees the climate threat as imperiling the country on several fronts at once. Droughts and food shortages are stoking conflicts in ethnically divided nations, with “climate refugees” producing   worldwide havoc. Pandemics and other humanitarian disasters will increasingly require extensive military involvement. The melting Arctic is creating new seaways to defend. And rising seas threaten American cities and military bases themselves.While others still debate the causes of global warming, the Pentagon is intensely focused on its effects. Its response makes it clear that where it counts, the immense impact of climate change is not in doubt.

  2040 - Is This the End We Want?

  Howard Atkins

  2040 is a dystopian warning and deliberate prequel to the companion novel 2084. Where 2084 explores a future shaped by thoughtful integration between humanity and artificial intelligence, 2040 reveals what happens when power, fear, and unchecked systems determine the path forward instead. This is the future we do not want. 
  The story traces the years leading to 2040, as democratic institutions erode, surveillance becomes normalized, and technology shifts from innovation to enforcement. Authority tightens. Extremism spreads. Economies fracture. Citizens comply not through force, but through convenience, loyalty, and fear. Freedom survives as language, but disappears in practice. 
  Artificial intelligence is not the villain here. Like in 2084, it is a tool. The danger lies in who controls it and why. Systems designed to protect become mechanisms that monitor, restrict, and punish. Resistance is reframed as risk. 
  This book is intentionally unsettling because it is plausible. Its events echo debates already unfolding worldwide. This is the dark trajectory. Read it first. 
  The possible alternate ending appears in the hopeful companion book: 2084. What if there’s another path? Discover it in 2084, where humanity chooses ethics, restraint, and shared responsibility over domination, obedience, and control of its own future at last now.

  From the beloved host of NPR’s Weekend Edition Saturday, moving tales of the marvelous animals who have crossed his path. 
   
  Scott Simon’s household does not make much distinction between humans and other animals. Whether two legged or four, flesh-covered, fur-covered, feathered, or gilled―everyone is family. Today, the beloved radio host lives with the haiku-writing and absolument charmant French poodle Daisy; the daringly audacious foster cat Gato Blanco; and the energetic, cage-escaping hamster Bagel, who was almost Gato’s meal. And that’s just the start. In Ulysses S. Cat and Other Animals I Have Known, Simon warmly philosophizes on the unforgettable and utterly ordinary but enduring moments in the remarkable relationships between species, along with their joys, worries, love, and humor. From a cat who escaped the British Embassy―Simon had to promise she’d keep her accent―to street dogs during Sarajevo’s siege, to a series of beta fish all named Salman Fishdie, this enchanting work is a profusion of exuberant memories and musings on a life spent in animal company.
