Barons - Money Power and the...

Austin Frerick, Eric Schlosser

Barons is the story of seven corporate titans, their rise to power, and the consequences for everyone else. Take Mike McCloskey, chairman of Fair Oaks Farms. In a few short decades, he went from managing a modest dairy herd to running the Disneyland of agriculture. Mike benefited from deregulation of the American food industry, a phenomenon that has consolidated wealth in the hands of select tycoons, and along the way, hollowed out the nation's rural towns and local businesses. 
 
 
 
Along with Mike McCloskey, listeners will meet a secretive German family that took over the global coffee industry in less than a decade, relying on wealth traced back to the Nazis to gobble up countless independent roasters. And they will learn that in the food business, crime really does pay—especially when you can bribe and then double-cross the president of Brazil. 
 
 
 
These, and the other stories in this book, are simply examples of the monopolies and ubiquitous corruption that today define American food. The tycoons profiled are hardly unique: many other companies have manipulated our lax laws and failed policies for their own benefit, to the detriment of our neighborhoods, livelihoods, and our democracy itself. A fair, healthy, and prosperous food industry is possible—if we take back power from the barons who have robbed us of it.

Last Coral The: A Love Letter to...

Alex Southwick

Beneath the waves, one of Earth’s most extraordinary ecosystems is fading from colour to white. Coral reefs — the rainforests of the sea — are dying at an unprecedented rate, taking with them a quarter of all marine life and the livelihoods of millions who depend on them. 
In The Last Coral, Alex Southwick journeys from the Great Barrier Reef to the islands of the Pacific, tracing the human and ecological story of the planet’s most fragile wonder. Through scientists, divers, and coastal communities, Southwick captures both the urgency of the crisis and the fierce devotion of those fighting to preserve what remains. 
This is not just a tale of loss, but of endurance — of reefs regenerating in unlikely places, and of people refusing to surrender to despair. 
Measured, moving, and unsentimental, The Last Coral asks what it means to love something vanishing — and whether that love might yet be enough to bring it back.
