Sinopse

Melting Permafrost explores the increasingly urgent issue of thawing permafrost and its global implications. This phenomenon, driven by climate change, is not just an environmental concern but a multifaceted challenge that could destabilize ecosystems and accelerate global warming. The book delves into intriguing facts, such as the potential release of ancient viruses trapped within the ice for millennia, and the significant surge in methane emissions as the permafrost thaws, contributing to greenhouse gas levels.

 
The book progresses systematically, first introducing the science of permafrost, including its composition and distribution, before examining the consequences of its thaw. This includes chapters on ancient viruses, methane emissions, and paleontological discoveries, offering a comprehensive analysis grounded in scientific evidence sourced from diverse disciplines like microbiology, climatology, and paleontology.

 
Finally, the book addresses mitigation strategies and policy implications, making it a valuable resource for understanding the Earth Sciences Geography and Environment impacts of this critical issue.

    Northeaster - A Story of Courage...

    For many, the past few years have been defined by climate disaster. Stories about once-in-a-lifetime hurricanes, floods, fires, droughts, and even snowstorms are now commonplace. But dramatic weather events are not new and Northeaster, Cathie Pelletier's breathtaking account of the 1952 snowstorm that blanketed New England, offers a valuable reminder about nature's capacity for destruction as well as insight into the human instinct for preservation. 
     
     
     
    Northeaster weaves together a rich cast of characters whose lives were uprooted and endangered by the storm. Housewives and lobstermen, loggers and soldiers were all trapped as snow piled in drifts twenty feet high. The storm smothered hundreds of travelers in their cars, covered entire towns, and broke ships in half. In the midst of the blizzard's chaos, there were remarkable acts of heroism and courageous generosities. Doctors braved the storm to help deliver babies. Ordinary people kept their wits while buried in their cars, and others made their way out of forests to find kindhearted strangers willing to take them in. 
     
     
     
    It's likely that none of us know how we would handle a confrontation with a blizzard or other natural disaster. But Northeaster shows that we have it inside to fight for survival in some of the harshest conditions that nature has to offer.

  • They Knew - The US Federal Government’s Fifty-Year Role in Causing the Climate Crisis - cover

    They Knew - The US Federal...

    In 2015, a group of twenty-one young people sued the federal government for violating their constitutional rights by promoting the climate catastrophe, depriving them of life, liberty, and property without due process of law. They Knew offers evidence for their claims, presenting a devastating, play-by-play account of the federal government's role in bringing about today's climate crisis. James Speth, tapped by the plaintiffs as an expert on climate, documents how administrations from Carter to Trump—despite having information about climate change and the connection to fossil fuels—continued aggressive support of a fossil fuel based energy system. 
     
     
      
    What did the federal government know and when did it know it? Speth asks, echoing another famous cover up. What did the federal government do and what did it not do? They Knew (an updated version of the Expert Report Speth prepared for the lawsuit) presents the most compelling indictment yet of the government's role in the climate crisis, showing a forty-year failure to take action. 
     
    Since Juliana v. United States was filed, the federal government has repeatedly delayed the case. Yet even in legal limbo, it has helped inspire a generation of youthful climate activists.
