Publisher's Summary:

La información sobre la crisis ecológica y climática está al alcance de todos y en boca de nadie. Extinción nos revela toda la información que no sale en los medios hegemónicos de comunicación, y pone en evidencia la crisis planetaria en que nos encontramos. Este es un libro urgente para entender qué hay detrás de esta crisis. Desde las estrategias políticas, el agronegocio y los modelos educativos hasta las formas de consumo que nos parecen naturales, este libro cuenta con la fuerza suficiente para hacernos ver la realidad y comenzar a actuar conscientemente. Extinción nos revela con evidencia científica la crisis ecológica y climática que atraviesa nuestro planeta. En los próximos cincuenta años 4000 millones de personas vivirán en zonas no aptas para la producción de alimentos. Para 2080 América del Sur estará en una sequía extrema. El 60% de los mamíferos y el 70% de las aves son criados para alimentar humanos. Este año una pandemia puso en estado de emergencia a todo el mundo. El 60% de las enfermedades infecciosas son transmitidas por animales. Mientras, crece la población de animales industrializados en hábitats naturales destruidos y ecosistemas alterados. ¿Qué estamos haciendo para frenar este ecocidio? ¿Por qué esta información no está al alcance de todos? Flavia Broffoni propone darle batalla a la civilización que está arrasando con la naturaleza. Extinción es un libro urgente: quedan menos de diez años para detener el colapso. En palabras de la autora, 'la decisión más honesta que podemos tomar en estos momentos de incertidumbre es qué hacer con el Tiempo que tenemos'.

Title: Returning Light: 30 Years of Life on Skellig Michael

Author: Robert L. Harris

Narrator: Robert L. Harris

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 9 hours 30 minutes

Release date: October 28, 2021

Genres: Animals & Nature

Publisher's Summary:

‘On Skellig Michael, thousands of birds appear and disappear, erecting towers, coming together in wings of movement which build and unravel over the empty sea. Often, no one else is there to stand beside me on the island. The mind wanders; links with the past are easily made; ancient ways of viewing things come alive.’ In 1987 Robert Harris happened upon an unusual job advert in The Kerryman – a new warden service was being set up on Skellig Michael, and the deadline was imminent. Just weeks later he was on his way to set up camp in one of Ireland’s most remote locations, unaware that he would be making that same journey every May for the next 30 years. Here he transports us to the otherworldly island, a place that is teeming with natural life, including curious puffins that like to visit his hut. From the precipice he has observed a coastline that is relatively unchanged for the last thousand years – a beacon of equilibrium in an ever-changing world. But the island can be fierce too. Inhabitable only for five months of the year, solitude can quickly become isolation as bad weather rolls in to create a veil between Skellig Michael and the rest of the world, when the dizzying terrain can become a very real threat to life. Returning Light is an extraordinary memoir about the profound effect a place can have on us, and how a remote location can bring with it a great sense of belonging.

Title: The Trail to Kanjiroba: Rediscovering Earth in an Age of Loss

Author: William Debuys

Narrator: William Debuys

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 10 hours 19 minutes

Release date: October 26, 2021

Genres: Animals & Nature

Publisher's Summary:

A revitalizing new perspective on Earthcare from Pulitzer Prize finalist William deBuys. In 2016 and 2018 acclaimed author and conservationist William deBuys joined extended medical expeditions into Upper Dolpo, a remote, ethnically Tibetan region of northwestern Nepal, to provide basic medical services to the residents of the region. Having written about climate change and species extinction, deBuys went on those journeys seeking solace. He needed to find a constructive way of living with the discouraging implications of what he had learned about the diminishing chances of reversing the damage humans have done to Earth; he sought a way of holding onto hope in the face of devastating loss. As deBuys describes these journeys through one of Earth's remotest regions, his writing celebrates the land's staggering natural beauty, and treats his listeners to deep dives into two scientific discoveries—the theories of natural selection and plate tectonics—that forever changed human understanding of our planet. Written in a vivid and nuanced style evocative of John McPhee or Peter Matthiessen, The Trail to Kanjiroba offers a surprising and revitalizing new way to think about Earthcare, one that may enable us to continue the difficult work that lies ahead.

Title: A Dog's World: Imagining the Lives of Dogs in a World without Humans

Author: Jessica Pierce, Marc Bekoff

Narrator: Karen White

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 6 hours 19 minutes

Release date: October 26, 2021

Genres: Animals & Nature

Publisher's Summary:

From two of the world's leading authorities on dogs, an imaginative journey into a future of dogs without people What would happen to dogs if humans simply disappeared? Would dogs be able to survive on their own without us? A Dog's World imagines a posthuman future for dogs, revealing how dogs would survive—and possibly even thrive—and explaining how this new and revolutionary perspective can guide how we interact with dogs now. Drawing on biology, ecology, and the latest findings on the lives and behavior of dogs and their wild relatives, Jessica Pierce and Marc Bekoff—two of today's most innovative thinkers about dogs—explore who dogs might become without direct human intervention into breeding, arranged playdates at the dog park, regular feedings, and veterinary care. Pierce and Bekoff show how dogs are quick learners who are highly adaptable and opportunistic, and they offer compelling evidence that dogs already do survive on their own—and could do so in a world without us. Challenging the notion that dogs would be helpless without their human counterparts, A Dog's World enables us to understand these independent and remarkably intelligent animals on their own terms.

Title: Climate Change: A Very Short Introduction

Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1

Genres: Animals & Nature

Publisher's Summary:

In the last few years global awareness of climate change has grown very rapidly—through the school strikes led by Greta Thunberg, groups like Extinction Rebellion, the IPCC's recent high impact reports, TV documentaries, and declarations from governments around the world that we are in a climate emergency. This awareness is continuing to grow, as the science shows us that our planet and our species are facing a massive crisis, which we ourselves have caused. Climate change is one of the few scientific theories that make us examine the whole basis of modern society. It is a challenge that has politicians arguing, sets nations against each other, queries individual lifestyle choices, and ultimately asks questions about humanity's relationship with the rest of the planet. This Very Short Introduction draws on the very latest science from the 2021 IPCC Report, examining the evidence that climate change is already happening, and discussing its potential catastrophic impacts in the future. Mark Maslin also explores the geopolitics of climate change and the win-win solutions we can employ to avoid the very worst effects of climate change. Throughout, he demonstrates how we must develop new modes of thinking for the twenty-first century at individual, corporate, and government levels to collectively tackle the challenge of climate change.

Unlock the secret code of cats for a deeper connection with the feline in your life. Why does my cat always sleep on my keyboard? How can I stop them bullying the dog?

Advanced Catwatching features put the spotlight on key behaviours such as sofa-scratching, while Survival Guides offer top tips for managing challenges such as moving house, or introducing a new cat into the family. What's My Cat Thinking? will deepen your understanding of your cat and strengthen the unique connection between you. So when they give you that 4am wake-up call, at least you'll know why.

Brought to you by Penguin. A legendary conservationist. A lifetime spent fighting for nature. An indispensable message of hope. The world-renowned naturalist and conservationist Jane Goodall has spent more than a half-century warning of our impact on our planet. From her famous encounters with chimpanzees in the forests of Gombe as a young woman to her tireless campaigning for the environment in her late eighties, Jane has become the godmother to a new generation of climate activists. In The Book of Hope, Jane draws on the wisdom of a lifetime dedicated to nature to teach us how to find strength in the face of the climate crisis, and explains why she still has hope for the natural world and for humanity. In extraordinary conversations with her co-author Doug Abrams that weave together stories from her travels and activism, she offers readers a new understanding of the crisis we face and a compelling path forward for us all to create hope in our own lives and in the world. The world needs a manifesto of hope now more than ever. This profound book from a legendary figure in the fight against climate change shows that even in the face of great adversity, we can find hope in human nature, and in nature itself.
