  This book provides an eye-opening revelation about how our current practices continue to harm the environment and all its inhabitants. To ensure a more sustainable future for the planet, we must adopt new ways of doing things and eliminate consumer products and practices that cause the most damage to natural ecosystems and threaten life on Earth. Wildlife species, ecosystem functions, and human health have all been negatively impacted by the excessive amounts of garbage produced globally every day. Many commonly used products linger in the environment for years after disposal, resulting in grave consequences for essential wildlife organisms and their ecosystems, including water sources, land, and soils. Natural resources have been rapidly depleted for decades, diminishing habitats and generating excess pollution. The time is now to take decisive action. We must move towards using alternative materials and methods that reduce environmental harm caused by today's common products and practices. This shift is crucial in minimizing the increasing risks of climate change and preserving our planet for future generations.

  Audiobook Description  
  The sky came down like a knife and took everything Jack Steele loved. 
  Jack is a man of the West  steady, hard-handed, and honest. When the Black Sky opens and ships pour fire on his town, Jack’s quiet life is ripped apart. His wife Emily is taken. His son is gone. The town is ash and smoke. What remains are people who must learn to fight. 
  This audiobook is a fast, hard ride. Expect non-stop action raids at dawn, desperate night escapes, small teams sneaking into alien strongholds, and big set-piece fights where bullets and courage meet strange, unstoppable weapons. You’ll meet tough allies (Lila, Mateo, Sheriff Cole, Mayor Evelyn Harper) and enemies who think like machines. You’ll see rescue missions that cost everything, plans hatched in smoky rooms, and the price of hope when hope looks foolish. 
  Simple language, sharp scenes, and steady emotion drive the pages. You’ll feel the dust in Jack’s boots, the heat of the alien beams, and the cost of each choice. This is not a clean war  it is ugly, brave, and human. 
  What to expect  gritty Western grit fused with hard sci-fi threat; fierce small-group tactics; emotional losses that shape the fight; a slow, terrible enemy plan that will force Jack and the survivors to change the rules of war. 
  Coming: audiobook Two of the Black Sky War  coming Winter.

  Every NASCAR fan—at one time or another—asks the same question: Why isn't my favorite driver winning? This is your chance to discover how much more there is to NASCAR than "Go fast, turn left, and don't crash." If you've ever wondered why race cars don't have mufflers, how "bump drafting" works, or what in the world "Let's go up a pound on the right rear and add half a round of wedge" means, The Physics of NASCAR is for you. 
   
   
   
  In this fast-paced investigation into the adrenaline-pumping world of NASCAR, a physicist with a passion uncovers what happens when the rubber hits the road and 800-horsepower vehicles compete at 190 miles per hour only inches from one another. 
   
   
   
  Diandra Leslie-Pelecky tells her story in terms anyone who drives a car—and maybe occasionally looks under the hood—can understand. How do drivers walk away from serious crashes? How can two cars travel faster together than either car can on its own? How do you dress for a 1800°F gasoline fire? In simple yet detailed, high-octane prose, this is the ultimate thrill ride for armchair speed demons, auto science buffs, and NASCAR fans at every level of interest.
