Why Big Tech Is Betting Billions...

Hank Rearden

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
The richest companies on Earth are buying something the world swore it had outgrown: nuclear power.

Microsoft is bringing back a reactor at Three Mile Island, the most infamous name in atomic history. Amazon, Google and Meta are signing contracts for reactors that do not even exist yet. The reason is artificial intelligence. Its data centres devour electricity day and night, and sun and wind cannot keep them fed. Forty years after the world turned its back on the atom, Big Tech is betting billions that the world was wrong.

That bet hides a scandal. The West has forgotten how to build. One American plant ran seven years late and more than doubled in cost. A French one took seventeen years. Meanwhile China finishes reactors in five years and has almost thirty rising at once. Much of the fuel for the next generation still comes from Russia. And fusion, sold for decades as limitless clean energy, still cannot power the building it sits in.

The most shocking part is the one nobody advertises. Measured in lives lost for the electricity produced, nuclear power is one of the safest energy sources humans have ever used, and coal is hundreds of times deadlier. Fukushima's radiation killed one person. The rushed evacuation killed far more.

• why the AI boom is reviving reactors once left for dead
• why Chernobyl happened, and why no power reactor can explode like a bomb
• why small factory-built reactors are still mostly promises
• what the fusion "breakthrough" headlines leave out
• how a coup in Africa and a war in Ukraine turned uranium into a weapon
• who is really winning the new atomic race

The atom was never the problem. People were.

Mother Earth Isn't Dying - Man...

John Aldrick

Mother Earth Isn't Dying presents a graphic and compelling exposé of the impact mankind is having upon the Earth and collaterally upon itself. The author identifies a massive plague of humans, with a quadrupling of the global population in the last 80–100 years, enabled primarily by mankind's discovery and exhumation of the energy giant fossil carbon, which has fuelled the advance of civilisation.

Mankind no longer lives in sustainable consonance with the natural world but is in direct competition with it, leading to widespread destruction of essential terrestrial, marine, and atmospheric systems and resources.

Unfortunately, the intellect of mankind appears to be at variance with its genetic imperatives. The ideal of a happy, healthy, and liberated life in an unspoiled environment is in us all, but it is now a wish list, utopian, and mere fantasy. The elephant in the room is mankind's inherent compulsion to reproduce. The human genome is that of an animal, and its mind, which is its heart and soul, is unable to compete.

If mankind can pull itself out of this predicament, it will have accomplished a truly superhuman feat.

"This is an excellent book, well written and researched. The author uses his solid and wide-ranging knowledge of the arts, sciences and humanities to present climate change as the worldwide phenomenon it truly is. Here is a graphic example of the interconnectedness of all things. There are some suggestions as to the steps we might take to address the situation, but it is primarily a work designed to open the eyes of everyone who believes that climate change is just a storm in a teacup. The reality is that your entire kitchen and the planet it sits upon are about to disintegrate."

Journal of a Black Queer Nurse

Britney Daniels

In this searing, honest memoir, a Black queer emergency-room nurse works the front lines of care during COVID-19. 
 
 
 
Britney Daniels is a Black, masculine-presenting, tattooed lesbian from a working-class background. For the last five years, she has been working as an emergency-room nurse. She began Journal of a Black Queer Nurse as a personal diary, a tool to heal from the day-to-day traumas of seeing too much and caring too much. 
 
 
 
Hilarious, gut-wrenching, and infuriating by turns, these stories are told from the perspective of a deeply empathetic, no-nonsense young nurse, who highlights the way race, inequality, and a profit-driven healthcare system make the hospital a place where systemic racism is lived. 
 
 
 
Whether it is giving one's own clothes to a homeless patient, sticking up for patients of color in the face of indifference from white doctors and nurses, or nursing one's own back pain accrued from transporting too many bodies, Journal of a Black Queer Nurse reveals the ways in which care is much more than treating a physical body and how the commitment to real care—care that involves listening to and understanding patients in a deeper sense—demands nurses, especially nurses of color, must also be warriors.
