Have you heard that you should go vegan to save the planet? Or carbon offset your flight to mitigate its effects? Or invest in an ethical pension plan?

In “Saving the Planet Without the Bullshit”, Assaad argues that for too long green activism has been unfocused and distracted, trying to go in too many directions, focusing on individual behaviour. But all these things, are...

"Are the often alarming claims about global warming based on science and justified by the facts? Is the human race really facing a major crisis due to emissions from fossil fuels? Would the proposed Climate Treaty solve a real environmental threat or would it create worldwide economic and social harm? S. Fred Singer is a distinguished astrophysicist who has taken a hard, scientific look at the evidence. In this new book, Dr. Singer explores the inaccuracies...

Presents a discussion of the influence of mountain glaciers on drinking water supplies and agricultural irrigation, and examines the impact of melting permafrost and shrinking Arctic sea ice, and covers the importance of taking action to avoid a crisis in which ice completely disappears.

Gives children the facts about climate change, explains the stakes for the planet, and offers hope in fighting for the future.

This sobering examination of climate-change and the disastrous effects of rising sea levels explains what must be done to avoid the worst outcomes. By the end of this century, hundreds of millions of people living at low elevations along coasts will be forced to retreat to higher and safer ground. Because of sea-level rise, major storms will inundate areas farther inland and will lay waste to critical infrastructure, such as water-treatment and energy...

In Paris, a young physicist performs an oceanographic experiment-then dies mysteriously after a romantic tryst with a beautiful stranger. In the jungles of Malaysia, powerful hypersonic cavitation technology-capable of toppling mountains with sound-is purchased by a private interest for an unspecified purpose. In Vancouver, a businessman leases a small research submarine for use in the waters of New Guinea. In Tokyo, in Los Angeles, in Antarctica,
