Summary

Food Supply Chains explores the intricate global network delivering food from farms to consumers, emphasizing economic and environmental factors. It highlights the critical role of resilient food supply chains in ensuring global stability and preventing hunger crises. The book reveals that failures in logistics and infrastructure can have devastating consequences, exacerbating inequalities and leading to widespread food insecurity.

 
For instance, natural disasters or geopolitical instability can disrupt supply chains, impacting food availability and affordability in vulnerable regions. The book systematically builds knowledge by first introducing the core components of food supply chains: production, processing, distribution, and consumption. It then examines potential disruptions, analyzes the role of logistics, and investigates the contribution of supply chain failures to hunger crises. Case studies and statistical data support the analysis, providing a comprehensive understanding of the issues.

 
The book uniquely bridges economics and environmental science, offering insights for policymakers, businesses, and anyone interested in the global food system's sustainability and resilience. Finally, the book proposes strategies for building more resilient and sustainable food supply chains, emphasizing the need for collaboration among governments, businesses, and communities. It progresses by examining disruptions, logistics, and hunger crises, culminating in solutions for a more secure and equitable global food system.

  • Unsettled - What Climate Science Tells Us What It Doesn't and Why It Matters Updated and Expanded Edition - cover

    Unsettled - What Climate Science...

    In this updated and expanded edition of climate scientist Steven Koonin’s groundbreaking book, go behind the headlines to discover the latest eye-opening data about climate change—with unbiased facts and realistic steps for the future. 
     
    “Greenland’s ice loss is accelerating.” 
    “Extreme temperatures are causing more fatalities.” 
    “Rapid ‘climate action’ is essential to avoid a future climate disaster.” 
     
    You’ve heard all this presented as fact. But according to science, all of these statements are profoundly misleading. 
     
    With the new edition of Unsettled, Steven Koonin draws on decades of experience—including as a top science advisor to the Obama administration—to clear away the fog and explain what science really says (and doesn’t say). With a new introduction, this edition now features reflections on an additional three years of eye-opening data, alternatives to unrealistic “net zero” solutions, global energy inequalities, and the energy crisis arising from the war in Ukraine. 
     
    When it comes to climate change, the media, politicians, and other prominent voices have declared that “the science is settled.” In reality, the climate is changing, but the why and how aren’t as clear as you’ve probably been led to believe. 
     
    Koonin takes readers behind the headlines, dispels popular myths, and unveils little-known truths: 
    • Despite rising greenhouse gas emissions, global temperatures decreased from 1940 to 1970 
    • Models currently used to predict the future do not accurately describe the climate of the past, and modelers themselves strongly doubt their regional predictions 
    • There is no compelling evidence that hurricanes are becoming more frequent—or that predictions of rapid sea level rise have any validity 
     
    Unsettled is a reality check buoyed by hope, offering the truth about climate science—what we know, what we don’t, and what it all means for our future.
