    Paleoclimatology is the study of past climates, offering insights into how Earth's climate system has changed over millions of years. By examining ancient climate patterns, scientists can better understand the mechanisms driving climate change and apply this knowledge to modern and future climate predictions. Unlike modern meteorology, which focuses on short-term weather patterns, paleoclimatology reconstructs long-term climate trends using indirect evidence from natural records. 
    One of the fundamental reasons for studying past climates is to identify natural climate variability and distinguish it from human-induced changes. The Earth's climate has undergone significant shifts, from ice ages to warm interglacial periods, often driven by factors such as variations in solar radiation, volcanic activity, and changes in ocean currents. Understanding these past fluctuations helps scientists assess current climate trends in a broader historical context. 
    Reconstructing ancient climates relies on multiple sources of evidence, known as climate proxies. These proxies include ice cores, tree rings, sediment deposits, and fossilized remains, each providing valuable data about past temperatures, atmospheric composition, and precipitation patterns. Ice cores, for example, contain trapped air bubbles that reveal historical levels of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane. Tree rings can indicate annual climate variations, with thicker rings often signifying favorable growing conditions and thinner rings reflecting harsher climates. Sediment layers from oceans and lakes provide further clues about past environmental conditions, preserving pollen, microorganisms, and mineral compositions that reflect climate changes over thousands or even millions of years.

    An elegant blend of "polemic, industrial history, nautical writing, elegy, and ecology" (The Scotsman), The Two-Headed Whale charts the tragic history of the post-war whaling industry alongside the author's thrilling memoir of sailing the Antarctic. 
     
     
     
    In 2016, Sandy Winterbottom embarked on an epic six-week tall-ship voyage from Uruguay to Antarctica. At the mid-way stop in South Georgia, her pristine image of the Antarctic was shattered when she discovered the dark legacy of twentieth century industrial-scale whaling. Enraged by what she found, she was quick to blame the men who undertook this whole scale slaughter, but then she stumbled upon the grave of an eighteen-year-old whaler from Edinburgh who she could not allow to bear the brunt of blame. There are two sides to every story. 
     
     
     
    The Two-Headed Whale vividly brings to life the spectacular scenery and wildlife of the vast Southern Oceans, set alongside the true-life story of Anthony Ford, the boy in the grave, as he sailed the same seas and toiled in an industry where profits outranked human life. Drawing together threads of nature and travel writing with an unflinching narrative of life aboard a whaling factory ship and the legacy it left behind, The Two-Headed Whale leaves us questioning our troubled relationship with the extraordinary abundance of this planet.
