Sinopsis

Global Food Crisis explores the complex web of factors causing food shortages worldwide, impacting vulnerable populations and threatening food security. It highlights how economic instability, climate change, and conflict converge to disrupt food systems, despite advancements in agriculture. The book examines the historical roots of these systems, from local farming to global markets, revealing vulnerabilities in the modern interconnected world. For example, volatile commodity prices can devastate developing nations' ability to secure stable food supplies. The book provides a comprehensive analysis by linking economic principles, climate patterns, and conflict dynamics to the crisis. It emphasizes that food shortages are systemic issues, not isolated events. The approach is to present fact-based insights that go beyond single-cause explanations of the current events. The book is structured to first introduce the challenges, then examine the major drivers such as the impact of climate change, and finally offer solutions ranging from policy recommendations to agricultural advancements. Ultimately, Global Food Crisis distinguishes itself by offering an integrated perspective on the multifaceted nature of food shortages, making it a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this critical global challenge. The book references data from organizations like the World Food Programme and the Food and Agriculture Organization.

    A divided world has been brought together under a common threat and it is just the beginning. 
     
    There are massive, global revolutions being created and fostered by a powerful, dark and sinister group that have directed the sheep for countless generations. Very soon you will be asked to do things you would never have contemplated before and you will do them gladly. 
     
    This is the story of how your freedoms and liberties are being taken away from you without you even caring. In fact you will be happy to lose them. And all because of a small virus created by that same elite group and let loose upon mankind for a very malevolent end.

    What's So Great about America

    What's So Great About America isn't a question—it's a statement. From the unique perspective that perhaps only an immigrant can have, Dinesh D'Souza says that America is a land of opportunity and freedom. A leading conservative thinker, D'Souza trumpets the science, democracy, and capitalism that he believes have led the West to global supremacy. Along the way, he spares no opportunity to bash those who he thinks have "denigrated" America and trivialized its freedom: multiculturalists, feminists, hippies, and vegetarians. As an "outsider" from India who has had amazing success in the United States, D'Souza defends not an idealized America, but America as it really is.

    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.

    An eye-opening examination of the ties between American gun culture and white male supremacy from the American Revolution to today. 
     
     
     
    One-third of American adults—approximately 86 million people—own firearms. This is not just for protection or hunting. Although many associate gun-centric ideology with individualist and libertarian traditions in American political culture, Race, Rights, and Rifles shows that it rests on an equally old but different foundation. Instead, Alexandra Frilindra shows that American gun culture can be traced back to the American Revolution when republican notions of civic duty were fused with a belief in white male supremacy and a commitment to maintaining racial and gender hierarchies. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on wide-ranging historical and contemporary evidence, Race, Rights, and Rifles traces how this ideology emerged during the Revolution and became embedded in America's institutions, from state militias to the National Rifle Association (NRA). Utilizing original survey data, Filindra reveals how many white Americans—including those outside of the NRA's direct orbit—embrace these beliefs, and as a result, they are more likely than other Americans to value gun rights over voting rights, embrace antidemocratic norms, and justify political violence.

    The United States has become an almost unrecognizable country—with millions in thrall to conspiracy theories, toxic populism, and the far right edging closer to total power—a dire threat to civil society and democratic institutions. While the MAGA movement was in remission due to Donald Trump's defeat in 2020, the fascist fringes have not just survived but have continued to thrive and burrow into the mainstream. The January 6th Capitol Riot prosecutions have done little to curb their enthusiasm for mayhem. 
     
     
     
    Trump's base in the Republican Party is committed to their candidate like never before. The institutionalization of racist voter suppression and the outdated logic behind the Electoral College means he could take back the White House. Apocalyptic messaging ensures the alt-right, anti-government, anti-LGBT, and white nationalist groups see the next election as a life-or-death struggle and are uniting to back the one person they can all agree on—guaranteeing another chaotic election. 
     
     
     
    In this chilling exposé, Wendling encounters Capital rioters, Covid deniers, QAnon supporters, and Proud Boys and uncovers the roots of a movement that threatens to shatter the foundations of democracy.
