Synopsis

Largest Icebergs explores the formation, drifting patterns, and environmental impacts of colossal icebergs, emphasizing their connection to global warming and climate change. These icy giants, some the size of small countries, significantly influence ocean systems and sea level rise as they melt, releasing freshwater that disrupts salinity balances. The book uniquely focuses on these singular events, highlighting their disproportionate impact compared to general ice sheet melt, differentiating itself from broader studies in glaciology and oceanography. The book uncovers how ocean currents, wind patterns, and the Coriolis effect dictate iceberg movement, often carrying them far from Antarctica into crucial shipping lanes. Using satellite imagery and oceanographic models, scientists track these behemoths, providing insights into Earth's interconnected systems.

 
Progressing through three sections, the book first covers iceberg formation and tracking, then analyzes case studies of the largest icebergs, and finally examines their environmental implications in a warming climate. Drawing from satellite imagery, climate models, and field research, Largest Icebergs integrates glaciology, oceanography, climatology, and geography to present an evidence-based account. This approach makes it valuable for geographers, earth scientists, policymakers, and anyone keen on understanding the effects of climate change, offering knowledge applicable to refining sea level rise predictions and informing climate mitigation strategies.

    Farming and ranching success comes from the freedom to fail because there is no silver bullet. Curiosity – Farmers Discovering What Works tells journeys farmers make to find solutions that are kinder to the environment, easier on the pocket and bring purpose, pride and confidence to those in the most complex profession there is. Each story has nuggets of inspiration and insight to stimulate observation and logic in farming matters. 
    John's perspectives are associated with the practices and principles of Allan Savory's Holistic Management, which though habits and routines, changes how farmers observe, question and probe for solutions. John teaches this in New Zealand and assists with farmers around the globe as a tutor for Holistic Management International. John draws on similarly minded farmers and experts such as Joel Salatin, Gabe Brown, Allan Nation, Allen Williams, Fred Provenza, Christine Jones, Charles Massy and others offering commercial farmers new directions and insights. 
    Reviews include: 
    …his purposeful “short, sharp” essays are designed for busy people. “Hopefully it’s style will remind you of Allan Nation.” Yes, John King did indeed capture Allan’s wise pithiness. I found myself underlining or circling something in virtually every essay. It’s dense, packed with sensible advice gleaned from dozens of on-farm experiments over numerous decades. Joel Salatin, editor, Stockman Grass Farmer, Missouri, USA 
    This invaluable and important book should be compulsory reading for anyone daring to manage farming landscapes with an eye to contributing to healthier farmscapes and catchments, rural families and their animals, and to a sustainable future. How I wish I could have read and lived in such a book as this when I was a young farmer preparing to make all the mistakes. A farming, social, and environmental gem. Charles Massy, author, Call of the Reed Warbler

    An examination of how Western visions of endless future growth have contributed to the global environmental crisis 
     
     
     
    For centuries, the West has produced stories about the future in which humans use advanced science and technology to transform the earth. Michael Rawson uses a wide range of works that include Francis Bacon's New Atlantis, the science fiction novels of Jules Verne, and even the speculations of think tanks like the RAND Corporation to reveal the environmental paradox at the heart of these narratives: the single-minded expectation of unlimited growth on a finite planet. 
     
     
      
    Rawson shows how these stories, which have long pervaded Western dreams about the future, have helped to enable an unprecedentedly abundant and technology-driven lifestyle for some while bringing the threat of environmental disaster to all. Adapting to ecological realities, he argues, hinges on the ability to create new visions of tomorrow that decouple growth from the idea of progress.
