Beautiful and moving ⠦ Stunning images of our frozen Earth⠝ - New Scientist We live on a planet where up to a third of the land area is covered by snow and ice during the winter. This frozen world, known as the cryosphere, is captured in all its remarkable beauty by the spectacular photography within this book. Our Frozen Planet is a celebration of these frozen realms, inviting readers to embark upon a stunning photographic journey through the cryosphere. However, this book also carries a stark warning: although the cryosphere represents a significant component of Planet Earth, it is rapidly declining in response to global warming. The next few generations of humanity will see unprecedented change in ice and snow cover. Now is the time to place on record the magical beauty of such areas. Experts in their field, authors and photographers Michael Hambrey and Jürg Alean have each studied glaciers for half a century. They have worked in both polar regions, and several of the world⠙s major mountain ranges. Their work has led them to examine ice and snow on all scales, from the mighty glaciers and ice sheets that still cover ten percent of Earth⠙s land surface, to frozen puddles and fluffy snow. In this book, they explore how a myriad of snowflakes are transformed into glacier ice, how this then flows under the influence of gravity, and finally disappears through melting. They discuss how glaciers have eroded Earth⠙s surface to produce some of our most stunning landscapes, and the importance of deposition of debris to the provision of rich soils. They investigate ice in the ocean, on lakes and in rivers, and illustrate the delicate beauty of frost and snow. Finally, they show some of the myriad ways in which plants, animals, and humans interact with the cryosphere.Replete with breathtaking photography ranging from the tiniest icicle to the most mammoth glacier, this book is a vibrant celebration of this fascinating and breathtaking world in which we live. Our Frozen Planet serves as a reminder of what we are at risk of losing, and, in doing so, gives us the courage to tackle the global climate emergency.

Everything was finally in place. The scientists stood in their observation bunker in the Alamogordo desert, staring through the lenses of their protective glasses at the tower five miles away where the world s first atomic device awaited an electric pulse for detonation. It was 5:29 a.m. on July 19, 1945. The previous evening, one of the smartest persons in the world had decided it was time to lighten things up a bit. Enrico Fermi glanced round at his fellow scientists and said, in his heavy Italian accent, Now, let s make a bet whether the atmosphere will be set on fire by this test. 1 He wondered aloud whether this would incinerate only New Mexico or spread to the entire planet. Laughter followed, some of it nervous. A few people took him up on it --

By the end of this book it is difficult to say which is the more astonishing â “ the ingenuity with which individual species contrive a living, or the complexity of their interdependence on each other and on the habitations provided by our planet.In this new edition, the author, with the help of zoologist Matthew Cobb, has added all the most up-to-date discoveries of ecology and biology, as well as a full-colour 64-page photography section.

Now a National Bestseller! Climate change is real but it’s not the end of the world. It is not even our most serious environmental problem. Michael Shellenberger has been fighting for a greener planet for decades. He helped save the world’s last unprotected redwoods. He co-created the predecessor to today’s Green New Deal. And he led a successful effort by climate scientists and activists to keep nuclear plants operating, preventing a spike of emissions.But in 2019, as some claimed “billions of people are going to die,” contributing to rising anxiety, including among adolescents, Shellenberger decided that, as a lifelong environmental activist, leading energy expert, and father of a teenage daughter, he needed to speak out to separate science from fiction.Despite decades of news media attention, many remain ignorant of basic facts. Carbon emissions peaked and have been declining in most developed nations for over a decade. Deaths from extreme weather, even in poor nations, declined 80 percent over the last four decades. And the risk of Earth warming to very high temperatures is increasingly unlikely thanks to slowing population growth and abundant natural gas. Curiously, the people who are the most alarmist about the problems also tend to oppose the obvious solutions. What’s really behind the rise of apocalyptic environmentalism? There are powerful financial interests. There are desires for status and power. But most of all there is a desire among supposedly secular people for transcendence. This spiritual impulse can be natural and healthy. But in preaching fear without love, and guilt without redemption, the new religion is failing to satisfy our deepest psychological and existential needs.

Brilliantly written and genuinely one of the most important books I have ever read - Ellie Mae O Hagan An engrossing exploration of the science, history and politics of the Anthropocene, one of the most important scientific ideas of our time, from two world-renowned expertsMeteorites, methane, mega-volcanoes and now human beings; the old forces of nature that transformed Earth many millions of years ago are joined by another: us. Our actions have driven Earth into a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene. For the first time in our home planet s 4.5-billion year history a single species is dictating Earth s future.To some the Anthropocene symbolises a future of superlative control of our environment. To others it is the height of hubris, the illusion of our mastery over nature. Whatever your view, just below the surface of this odd-sounding scientific word, the Anthropocene, is a heady mix of science, philosophy, religion and politics linked to our deepest fears and utopian visions. Tracing our environmental impact through time to reveal when humans began to dominate Earth, scientists Simon Lewis and Mark Maslin masterfully show what the new epoch means for all of us.

Již více než třicet let obohacuje Jürg Amann švýcarské písemnictví. Stejně jako ve většině Amannovy tvorby nesoucí autobiografické rysy autora jsou i v knize Zabít matku ústředními motivy smrt jakožto utrpení, završení (nebo také vykoupení) a vztah syna a matky. Kniha se skládá ze čtyř částí, jež jsou v podstatě variacemi právě na tato témata. První dvě části jsou líčením očima chlapce - ve svých vzpomínkách se vypravěč s matkou vydává na cestu za jejím dlouho zapíraným a nyní již mrtvým otcem, jindy jsou malí sourozenci svědky matčiných zoufalých výlevů a sebevražedných sklonů. Ve třetí části se již dospělý syn vyrovnává s prosbou své umírající matky o pomoc zemřít. Vypravěčovy myšlenky se pohybují mezi snahou o pochopení, úvahami o povinnosti a o oddané lásce k matce. Tématem závěrečné části Rekviem je samotné umírání. Čím blíž ke konci, tím méně příběhovosti. V kratinkých kapitolách poslední části připomínajících Kristovo utrpení dosahuje vypravěč jistého smíření s matčinou smrtí a smrtí vůbec.

Švýcarský autor Jürg Amann dospívá k mimořádnému porozumění Kafkovu dílu snahou o pochopení Kafkova života - ale nikoli obvyklým pátráním po autobiografických prvcích. Amann, který je sám spisovatel, rozvíjí hluboký psychologický vhled do fenoménu Kafka a nabízí tak čtenáři nebývalou příležitost pochopit Kafkovu cestu v jejích složitých obratech, vyvolávaných napětím mezi touhou po životě s druhými a nemožností se jim přiblížit. Ve výkladu ústředních motivů Kafkova díla přerůstá esej ve filosofickou výpověď o světě, v němž si člověk svobodně volí, co je mu osudem určeno.

With a new afterword, Why You Are Here: A speech on the opening of the COP26 climate summitAs a young man, I felt I was out there in the wild, experiencing the untouched natural world - but it was an illusion. The tragedy of our time has been happening all around us, barely noticeable from day to day - the loss of our planet s wild places, its biodiversity. I have been witness to this decline. A Life on Our Planet contains my witness statement, and my vision for the future - the story of how we came to make this, our greatest mistake, and how, if we act now, we can yet put it right.We have the opportunity to create the perfect home for ourselves and restore the wonderful world we inherited.All we need is the will do so.
