"The Heat Will Kill You First is about the extreme ways in which our planet is already changing. It is about why spring is coming a few weeks earlier and fall is coming a few weeks later and the impact that will have on everything from our food supply to disease outbreaks. It is about what will happen to our lives and our communities when typical summer days in Chicago or Boston go from 90 F to 110 F. A heatwave, Goodell explains, is a predatory event--one...

In Comfortably Unaware, Dr. Richard Oppenlander tackles the crucial issue of global depletion as it relates to food choice. We should all be committed, he tells us, to understanding the reality and consequences of our diet, the footprint it makes on our environment, and seek food products that are in the best interest of all living things. His forthright information and stark mental images are often disturbing-and that's how it should be. As the guardians...

If you are driving off a cliff, someone telling you to slow down isn't much of a help. (Well, slowing down while you turn in a new direction is likely to be a good idea.) By burning fossil fuels, humanity is now driving itself off a climate cliff toward extinction. We need to completely stop burning "stuff" (fossil fuels, or anything else) for energy. Yet to thrive we really do need lots of energy-in fact, even more than we now are using. This book...

THE ULTIMATUM IS IMPERATIVE- transform ourselves now or decline and perish as a result of the consequences of our own actions, a species suicide. THE ULTIMATUM IS DUAL- we can produce our own extinction and that of other species through weapons of mass destruction, especially nuclear, and/or environmental degradation, especially climate change. The EQUILIBRA series begins with THE ULTIMATUM, the myriad ways Mother Earth is communicating to us the...

Climate Change has become a major topic of debate in today's politics, with some advocating serious changes in policy in response to it, and others suggesting that scientists and politicians are misreading, misrepresenting, and misapplying the data. Elgin Hushbeck, Jr. is not afraid to challenge scientific orthodoxy, and in fact believes it is very important that we do so. In this little book, he gives an introduction to a number of problems that...

There has been a deliberate and orchestrated approach to promote the theory of human-made climate change initiated largely by the IPCC, which has created alarmist fears about climate and threats of global warming. All such predictions have been wrong and exaggerated and have used manipulated data to do this. These claims have become a dominant theme in world politics aided by the vast funding available for so-called research but really for propaganda...

How do we sustain infinite growth on a finite planet? Expand the planet. In Planet A, George J. Nasr offers an illuminating look at four simple keys that can unlock a sustainable path and empower a regenerative economy. Modern civilization is like a superorganism. Its systems evolve and adapt to thrive in specific environments. But that's exactly the problem: we often build for the wrong environment. With cheap energy, we force our will on nature....

I pose many questions that I intentionally don't answer. I want you to do that. I want everyone reading this book to think about some of these concepts. This is about concepts for solutions long-term and sustainable. If we want our environment to once again flourish and our agriculture and development sectors to continue growing, we must develop a national water policy and let that guide us into the future.

Climate change is a terrible problem and the constant argument is always on manmade industrial pollution as the culprit. This, however, fails to take into consideration the Bible's explanation, which is far-reaching. In fact, did you know that practically every book of the Old Testament and a few of the New Testament books mention climate change? We have a pattern unfolding and to truly understand, the what and why of it all is, for us to return to...
