Sinopsis

Frozen Continents explores the crucial role of the Arctic and Antarctic in understanding our planet. It reveals how these icy realms, often viewed as remote wastelands, are dynamic environments deeply connected to the global climate system.

 
The book delves into the unique geographies of both polar regions, highlighting their contrasting geological features and the influence of ice formations on sea levels and weather patterns.

 
Scientific research in these areas, such as analyzing ice core samples, provides invaluable insights into Earth's past climate and helps monitor present environmental changes.

 
The book examines diverse ice formations, including glaciers, ice sheets, and sea ice, detailing their formation, movement, and impact on the Earth’s energy balance.

 
It also surveys ongoing scientific investigations in fields like paleoclimatology and oceanography.

 
Ultimately, Frozen Continents argues that understanding these regions is vital for predicting future climate scenarios and informing policy decisions.

 
The book progresses by first establishing the geographical differences between the Arctic and Antarctic, then transitions into examining ice formation processes, and concludes with a survey of scientific research and its implications for climate change.

    In Residual Governance, Gabrielle Hecht dives into the wastes of gold and uranium mining in South Africa to explore how communities, experts, and artists fight for infrastructural and environmental justice. Hecht outlines how mining in South Africa is a prime example of what she theorizes as residual governance—the governance of waste and discard, governance that is purposefully inefficient, and governance that treats people and places as waste and wastelands. She centers the voices of people who resist residual governance and the harms of toxic mining waste to highlight how mining's centrality to South African history reveals the links between race, capitalism, the state, and the environment. In this way, Hecht shows how the history of mining in South Africa and the resistance to residual governance and environmental degradation is a planetary story: the underlying logic of residual governance lies at the heart of contemporary global racial capitalism and is a major accelerant of the Anthropocene.

    Horses are valuable teachers and healers, and give us powerful lessons in how to be effective leaders. In this 2022 interview with Justine Willis Toms, Carolyn Resnick reveals the secrets of how a horse gains and maintains its leadership of a herd of wild horses. What makes a good leader in a stallion of a herd of wild horses can be used for human leadership as well: it does not lead by coercion or waging battles, but creates unity, harmony, and respect including the personal space of others.  
    Carolyn Resnick is the founder of The Resnick Method of Horsemanship and offers many online courses, clinics, retreats, and certification opportunities that create a magical connection with horses using rituals that are innate to the horse. She is a master horse communicator who grew up with horses and spent three summers of her childhood gradually becoming accepted into a community of wild horses, culminating in her ability to ride a lead mare bareback and without a bridle. She is the author of Naked Liberty: Memoirs of My Childhood, Guided by Passion, Educated by Wild Horses (Amigo Publications, Inc. 2005).
