Get the scoop on reducing the environmental footprint of your furry friendsEighty-three million dogs and ninety-six million cats call the United States home. Dogs alone produce enough waste to fill more than 1,091 football fields 1 foot deep in a single year. Add billions of plastic pick-up bags to the mix and season well with tons of litter box waste. Scoop a hefty portion into local landfills and seal it tightly to ensure optimal methane production. Clearly, this is a recipe for disaster.Dog and cat owners who trash their pets' offerings daily are in denial about how much waste is produced and what happens to it. Those who want to make the responsible choice often turn to the internet, only to find misleading, confusing, and contradictory information.

Mandatory vaccines are nothing new, we all had to line up for polio shots, MMR shots, and a host of other vaccines before we were allowed to go to school, and with good reason. However, the Mandatory COVID shots and boosters do not fit into this category. They were not properly vetted, and we are now seeing many cases where they did more harm than good. Viruses are living things that mutate and evolve by the hour, so the perfect vaccine to stop any virus is not even remotely possible. A bacteria can be stopped with an anti-biotic, but viruses need to simply run their course. Vaccines to not kill viruses, they introduce a weakened form of it to prepare the body's immune system to fight the pathogen should I ever enter the body. Ultimately, it is your own immune system that will stop COVID, and not any variant vaccine. If the individual's immune system is compromised, the vaccine can actually do more harm that good. Learn how the body responds to all bacteria and viruses, and how to prepare your self for any pathogen, and build stronger health in the process. The body hasn't changed much in the last 10,000 years, learn the basics and you may never get sick again.Show book
In Feminist, Queer, Crip, Alison Kafer imagines a different future for disability and disabled bodies. Challenging the ways in which ideas about the future and time have been deployed in the service of compulsory able-bodiedness and able-mindedness, Kafer rejects the idea of disability as a pre-determined limit. She juxtaposes theories, movements, and identities such as environmental justice, reproductive justice, cyborg theory, transgender politics, and disability that are typically discussed in isolation and envisions new possibilities for crip futures and feminist/queer/crip alliances. This bold book goes against the grain of normalization and promotes a political framework for a more just world.Show book

We've known for decades that climate change is an existential crisis. For just as long, we've seen the complete failure of our institutions to rise to the challenge. Fossil fuel interests maintain a stranglehold on political and economic power. Even though we have seen growing concern from everyday people, civil society has succeeded only in pressuring decision makers to adopt watered-down policies. Is there any hope of achieving the systemic change we need?Dana R. Fisher argues that there is a realistic path forward for climate action—but only through mass mobilization that responds to the growing severity and frequency of disastrous events. She assesses the current state of affairs and shows why public policy and private-sector efforts have been ineffective. Spurred by this lack of progress, climate activism has become increasingly confrontational. Fisher examines the radical flank of the climate movement: its emergence and growth, its use of direct action, and how it might evolve as the climate crisis worsens. She considers when and how activism is most successful, identifying the importance of creating community, capitalizing on shocking moments, and cultivating resilience. Clear-eyed yet optimistic, Saving Ourselves offers timely insights on how social movements can take power back and open windows of opportunity for transformative climate action.Show book
