Sinossi

Earth Poles Flip explores the fascinating phenomenon of geomagnetic reversals: the periodic flipping of Earth's magnetic field, a subject crucial for understanding our planet's past and future. The book delves into the science behind these dramatic events, including how paleomagnetic analysis of rocks and sediments helps us identify and date them. Intriguingly, evidence suggests these reversals are linked to changes deep within Earth's core and could be influenced by external factors. The book investigates potential causes of geomagnetic reversals, examining models of core dynamics and the complex interplay of thermal and compositional convection. It also considers the consequences, such as a weakened magnetic field during the transition, increased exposure to cosmic radiation, and potential impacts on technology and even biological life. By presenting diverse evidence from seafloor spreading, lava flows, and numerical simulations, the book offers a comprehensive overview of this complex topic, balancing scientific rigor with accessible storytelling.

 
Structured in three parts, the book first introduces geomagnetic reversals and their identification. It then explores the causes and finally the consequences of geomagnetic reversals. This approach provides readers with a clear understanding of Earth processes.

Love Your Mother - 50 States 50...

Mallory McDuff

From elder voices opposing the Dakota Pipeline to young people running for office to advocate for change, every day we see real-life stories about how women are making a collective difference on climate justice. Women are also disproportionately impacted by climate change and thus are critical to transforming society away from dependence on fossil fuels and toward renewable energy and environmental equity. 
 
 
 
As a mother and a professor of environmental education, Mallory McDuff wanted to give her two daughters and her students a roadmap to engage in climate justice in their communities, rather than be left feeling paralyzed by the enormity of the problem. She set out to find women of diverse ages, backgrounds, and vocations—one from each of the fifty US states—as inspiration for a new kind of leadership focused on the heart of the climate crisis. Love Your Mother lifts up the stories of these women working toward a viable future, from farmer and rancher Donna Kilpatrick in Arkansas to writer Latria Graham in South Carolina. 
 
 
 
From Alabama to Alaska, from Wisconsin to Wyoming, these women are poets, physicians, climate scientists, students, farmers, writers, documentary filmmakers, and more. Their work lights the way for conversation and collective action in our homes and in the world. It's time we follow their lead.
