Burning fossil fuels will cause catastrophic global warming: this is what top American oil executives were told by scientists in 1959. But they ignored that warning. Instead, they developed one of the biggest, most polluting oil sources in the world—the oil sands in Alberta, Canada. As investigative journalist Geoff Dembicki reveals in this explosive book, the decades-long conspiracy to keep the oil sands flowing into the US would turn out to be one of the biggest reasons for the world's failure to stop the climate crisis. In The Petroleum Papers, Dembicki draws from confidential oil industry documents to uncover for the first time how companies like Exxon, Koch Industries, and Shell built a global right-wing echo chamber to protect oil sands profits—a misinformation campaign that continues to this day. He also tells the high-stakes stories of people fighting back: a Seattle lawyer who brought down Big Tobacco and is now going after Big Oil, a Filipina activist whose family drowned in a climate disaster, and a former Exxon engineer pushed out for asking hard questions. With experts now warning we have less than a decade to get global emissions under control, The Petroleum Papers provides a step-by-step account of how we got to this precipice—and the politicians and companies who deserve our blame.Ver livro

The concept of cosmic inflation stands as one of the most revolutionary and compelling ideas in modern astrophysics. First proposed in the early 1980s, inflation theory has transformed our understanding of the universe's earliest moments, providing profound insights into its large-scale structure and the intricate patterns of galaxies we observe today. This book goes on a journey to unravel the complexities of this remarkable theory, exploring its origins, implications, and the compelling evidence that supports it. Cosmic inflation posits that the universe underwent an exponential expansion within a fraction of a second after the Big Bang. This rapid inflation smoothed out any initial irregularities, setting the stage for the universe's current uniformity and flatness. It also stretched quantum fluctuations to astronomical scales, seeding the formation of galaxies and cosmic structures. Through this lens, we gain a clearer picture of how the universe evolved from a hot, dense state to the vast, structured cosmos we inhabit. This book is designed to cater to both curious laypersons and dedicated students of cosmology. We will delve into the fundamental principles of inflation theory, explore its mathematical underpinnings, and examine the observational evidence that lends it credence. From the cosmic microwave background radiation to the distribution of galaxies, we will see how inflation theory elegantly explains many of the universe's most perplexing features.Ver livro
