  Climate Change in the Classroom: Preparing the Next Generation for a Warming World 
    
  Climate change is not a future problem—it is the defining reality students are already living through. Yet many classrooms still prepare them for a world that no longer exists. 
  In Climate Change in the Classroom, Robert W. Collin draws on decades of work in environmental law, urban planning, and environmental justice to show how today’s climate risks are rooted in history—from land use and industrial development to modern public policy. 
  This audiobook reframes climate education as essential, not optional. Climate change is not just science—it shapes history, civics, economics, and public health. Students already face extreme heat, flooding, wildfire smoke, and economic instability. The question is not whether they will experience climate disruption, but whether they will be prepared to respond. 
  At its core is a shift from resilience to flourishing—from surviving climate impacts to building systems where all communities can thrive. As noted in a Kirkus Reviews assessment of the author’s related work, the climate divide is not inevitable, but “the result of policies… and can be changed by people.” Education is central to that change. 
  Designed for educators, policymakers, and engaged listeners, this audiobook offers a practical framework for integrating climate literacy across disciplines—preparing students not just to understand climate change, but to act within it.

  The Deadly Rise of Anti-science...

  During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, one renowned scientist, in his famous bowtie, appeared daily on major news networks such as MSNBC, NPR, the BBC, and others.  
   
  Dr. Peter J. Hotez often went without sleep, working around the clock to develop a nonprofit COVID-19 vaccine and to keep the public informed. During that time, he was one of the most trusted voices on the pandemic and was even nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize for  
  his selfless work. He also became one of the main targets of anti-science rhetoric that gained traction through conservative news media.  
   
  In this eyewitness story of how the anti-vaccine movement grew into a dangerous and prominent anti-science element in American politics, Hotez describes the devastating impacts it has had on Americans’ health and lives. As a scientist who has endured antagonism from anti-vaxxers and been at the forefront of both essential scientific discovery and advocacy, Hotez is uniquely qualified to tell this story. By weaving his personal experiences together with information on how the anti-vaccine movement became a tool of far-right political figures around the world, Hotez opens readers’ eyes to the dangers of anti-science. He explains how anti-science became a major societal and lethal force: in the first years of the pandemic, more than 200,000 unvaccinated Americans needlessly died despite the widespread availability of COVID-19 vaccines. Even as he paints a picture of the world under a shadow of aggressive ignorance, Hotez demonstrates his innate optimism, offering solutions for how to combat science denial and save lives in the process.
