  Carbon Paradox The: Why We Know...

  We know the science. We know the stakes. And yet — the emissions keep rising. Why, in the face of overwhelming evidence, does humanity remain frozen between knowledge and action? 
  In The Carbon Paradox, Alex Southwick delves into one of the most unsettling questions of our age: the psychological, cultural, and political forces that make climate change both undeniable and unchangeable. Through interviews with behavioral scientists, activists, economists, and ordinary citizens, Southwick explores the hidden mechanisms of denial, distraction, and disconnection that shape our collective inaction. 
  But this is not a book of blame — it’s a mirror. By tracing the gap between what we know and what we do, The Carbon Paradox reveals the deeper truth: that change depends not on more information, but on reimagining who we are and what we value. 
  Rigorously researched and profoundly human, The Carbon Paradox is both diagnosis and invitation — a call to break through paralysis and rediscover the will to act in a warming world.

  Few know the blockchain space as well as Brandon Zemp. Here Brandon offers readers a peek into the dizzying growth of this field, from the emergence of Bitcoin to the proliferation of other tokens such as Ethereum and Solana, to the dramatic rise and fall and rise again of the crypto financial markets. While savvy investment in this growing space can make you rich, Zemp shows how the real wealth will come from blockchain’s capacity to improve human lives, from medicine to transportation to art. The introduction of blockchain-powered decentralized finance will challenge a banking industry in desperate need of reform, empowering billions around the globe by reclaiming power from big banks and state-sanctioned fiat currencies. Zemp concludes by offering guidance for those who want to participate in this movement. There is space for everyone, and fresh opportunities are emerging each day. The only ones who will be left behind are those who refuse to see that the twenty-first century belongs to blockchain. That time is already here.

  Pregnancy - The first trimester is often a time of discovery, as your body adjusts to the changes that pregnancy brings. Early on, you may experience symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, and emotional fluctuations. While these can be challenging, they are all part of the normal course of early pregnancy.

By the time you reach the third trimester, the reality of impending parenthood becomes more tangible. The excitement of preparing for labor, learning about birth options, and planning for your baby's arrival takes center stage.
