Synopsis

Glacier National Parks explores the critical role of glaciers in our national parks and the escalating threat they face from climate change. These icy landscapes are not just scenic wonders; they are vital freshwater reservoirs that sustain diverse ecosystems.

 
The book highlights how glacial retreat disrupts water availability, increases wildfire risk, and endangers alpine environments, emphasizing the urgent need for environmental stewardship.

 
The book examines glacial formation, movement, and their historical significance, making complex concepts accessible with clear diagrams and photographs. It reveals alarming evidence of glacial decline through historical data, scientific studies, and photographic comparisons, demonstrating how global warming is specifically impacting various park regions. The study of these glaciers shows that they have been shaped over millennia.

 
Progressing from the introduction of glacial environments to the examination of retreat evidence and finally to mitigation strategies, the book presents potential policy recommendations and actions for protecting these landscapes.

 
By combining scientific rigor with accessible storytelling, Glacier National Parks inspires readers to understand and act on the climate challenges facing these irreplaceable natural treasures.

What does it mean to live in such a time? And what exactly do we lose when a species goes extinct?In a series of fascinating encounters with subjects that are now nowhere to be found on Earth – from giant tortoises to minuscule snails the size of sesame seeds, from ocean-hopping trees to fish that wag their tails like puppies – Lathan brings these lost wonders briefly back to life and gives us a tantalising glimpse of what we have lost within our own lifetime.Drawing on the personal recollections of the people who studied these species, as well as those who tried but ultimately failed to save them, Lost Wonders is an intimate portrait of the species that have only recently vanished from our world and an urgent warning to hold on all the more tightly to those now slipping from our grasp.
