  A Very Convenient Warming - How...

  Learn about the enormous benefits that are accruing to humanity from modest warming and increasing carbon dioxide. By nearly every metric, Earth’s ecosystems are thriving, and the human condition is improving. This notion of a prospering planet is entirely contrary to the claims of a climate crisis and looming disaster around every corner proclaimed by the Climate Industrial Complex. 
  In this audiobook we will explore these benefits and learn that extreme weather events are not increasing, how we are feeding the planet’s growing population through expanded crop growth and that modest warming is saving lives. 
  This audiobook, A Very Convenient Warming, is separated into three sections:The first section, titled Basic Climate Facts, is an expansion and update of Inconvenient Facts’ exploration of data concerning temperature and carbon dioxide. In it, we look at both the very recent and very long-term changes in both. This review clearly exposes that claims of unusual and unprecedented warming are erroneous and that hysteria over increases in CO2 are unwarranted. We also take a close look at the relationship between CO2 and temperature and find nothing of concern. 
  In the second section, Humanity and Climate: Blessed Warmth, Horrific Cold, we review the strong relationship between the histories of humanity and temperature. In it, we find that past warm periods were warmer than today and correlated to the rise of great empires and civilizations. These warmer times of plenty were called “climate optima” before the rampant politization of climate science. The corollary to this were the cold periods that were horrific. Each cooling period was related to crop failure, famine, pestilence, and mass depopulation. History tells us that we should fear the cold and welcome the warmth. 
  In the final section, Life Is Good, And Getting Better, you will learn that the various climate crises are, in fact, simply lies created to spread fear of a nonexistent problem. In this section we explore the many benefits that are improving the human condition and leading to thriving ecosystems. 
  My hope is that I have presented enough material in this audiobook for you to confidently assess and evaluate the various claims made by the proponents of a climate crisis. Make up your own mind, for that is the scientific process.

  Bond—James Bond. In the 80s and 90s, the debonair superspy's games failed to live up to the giddy thrills of his films. That all changed when British studio Rare unleashed GoldenEye 007 in 1997. In basements and college dorms across the world, friends bumped shoulders while shooting, knifing, exploding, and slapping each other's digital faces in the Nintendo 64 game that would redefine the modern first-person shooter genre and become the most badass party game of its generation. 
   
   
    
  But GoldenEye's success was far from a sure thing. For years of development, GoldenEye's team of rookie developers were shooting in the dark with no sense of what the N64 or its controller would be like, and the game's relentless violence horrified higher-ups at squeaky clean Nintendo. As development lagged far behind the debut of the tie-in film GoldenEye, the game nearly came out an entire Bond movie too late. 
   
   
    
  Through extensive interviews with GoldenEye's creators, writer and scholar Alyse Knorr traces the story of how this unlikely licensed game reinvigorated a franchise and a genre. Learn all the stories behind how this iconic title was developed, and why GoldenEye 007 has continued to kick the living daylights out of every other Bond game since.

  The ocean is the last remaining source of profound mystery and discovery on Earth. With eighty percent of it still largely unexplored, it is endlessly fascinating.  
   
  In Kraken: The Curious, Exciting, and Slightly Disturbing Science of Squid, journalist Wendy Williams introduces one of the ocean’s most charismatic, monstrous, and enigmatic inhabitants: the squid. More than just calamari, squid species are fascinatingly odd creatures, with much to teach us about our own species.  
   
  Williams examines it all, from the enormous beast that is the giant squid, which is quick to attack sperm whales, submarines, and boats, to the octopus and the cuttlefish, and explores their otherworldly abilities, such as camouflage and bioluminescence. Kraken takes the reader on a wild ride through the world of  
  squid science and adventure, along the way answering some riddles about how the human brain works, what intelligence really is, and what monsters lie in the deep.

  Scalpels, Egos, Libidos. Is anybody in this hospital under control? 
  In surgery, every cut changes a body forever. But what do you really know about the person holding the knife? Are their bodies betraying them and their desires distracting them? Does doubt haunt them and pride destroy them? 
  This is the story of the surgeons who stole a leg and saved a life. They are  the ones falling apart in the tearoom afterwards. The aging consultant who can feel his hands betraying him. The single mother questioning every 
  cut she's ever made. The brilliant surgeon whose ego writes cheques 
  his marriage can't cash. The trainee left holding the blame when a surgeon decides his reputation matters more than the truth. Two women torn apart by a lascivious outsider. And a woman who holds them all together. 
  Set in tropical North Queensland; Where is My F***N Leg?! is about the tribes we belong to in operating theatres, in marriages, in the quiet hours when there's nothing left to hide behind. 
  It's funny. It's searing. It's painful. 
  A blisteringly honest account of loss, lust, trust, betrayal and the uncomfortable truth that the people cutting you open are just as breakable as the rest of us.
