McLaren has been writing at the intersection of religious faith and contemporary culture. In Life After Doom, he engages with the catastrophic failure of both our religious and political leaders to address the dominant realities of our time: ecological overshoot, economic injustice, and the increasing likelihood of civilizational collapse. McLaren defines doom as the "un-peaceful, uneasy, unwanted feeling" that "we humans have made a mess of our civilization and our planet, and not enough of us seem to care enough to change deeply enough or quickly enough to save ourselves." Blending insights from philosophers, poets, scientists, and theologians, Life After Doom explores the complexity of hope, the necessity of grief, and the need for new ways of thinking, becoming, and belonging in turbulent times. If you want to help yourself, your family, and the communities to which you belong to find courage and resilience for the deeply challenging times that are upon us - this is the book you need right now"-- Provided by publisher]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2637087</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2637087</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McLaren, Brian D.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2637087113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Wisdom and Courage for A World Falling Apart</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781250893277/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Change Is in the Air]]></title><description><![CDATA["In an era when few women practiced science, Eunice Newton Foote dared to search for answers to a mystery that no one else had solved.

Regeneration describes how an inclusive movement can engage the majority of humanity to save the world from the threat of global warming, with climate solutions that directly serve our children, the poor, and the excluded. This means we must address current human needs, not future existential threats, real as they are, with initiatives that include but go well beyond solar, electric vehicles, and tree planting to include such solutions as the fifteen-minute city, bioregions, azolla fern, food localization, fire ecology, decommodification, forests as farms, and the number one solution for the world: electrifying everything." -- Back cover]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2413209</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2413209</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hawken, Paul]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2413209113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Ending the Climate Crisis in One Generation</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780143136972/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Learning to Die in the Anthropocene]]></title><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2202197</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2202197</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Scranton, Roy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2015 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2202197113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Reflections on the End of A Civilization</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780872866690/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dimming the Sun]]></title><description><![CDATA["Earth stands at a tipping point.

Billions of people will become climate refugees. Hotter temperatures will allow tropical diseases to spread into temperate regions. Higher levels of CO2, allergens, dust, and other particulate matter will impair our physical and mental health and even reduce our cognitive abilities. Climate change disproportionately affects the world's poor. It also harms Nature, and could ultimately trigger a sixth mass extinction. In Escaping Nature, Orrin H. Pilkey and his coauthors offer concrete suggestions for how to respond to the threats posed by global climate change.

We need established facts and a plan for collective action. The climate is the fundamental issue of our time, and now we face a critical decision. Whether to be optimistic or fatalistic, whether to profess skepticism or to take action. Yet it seems we can barely agree on what is really going on, let alone what needs to be done. We urgently need facts, not opinions. Insights, not statistics. And a shift from thinking about climate change as a "me" problem to a "we" problem.  The Carbon Almanac is a once-in-a-lifetime collaboration between hundreds of writers, researchers, thinkers, and illustrators that focuses on what we know, what has come before, and what might happen next. Drawing on over 1,000 data points, the book uses cartoons, quotes, illustrations, tables, histories, and articles to lay out carbon's impact on our food system, ocean acidity, agriculture, energy, biodiversity, extreme weather events, the economy, human health, and best and worst-case scenarios. Visually engaging and built to share, The Carbon Almanac is the definitive source for facts and the basis for a global movement to fight climate change.  This isn't what the oil companies, marketers, activists, or politicians want you to believe. This is what's really happening, right now. Our planet is in trouble, and no one concerned group, corporation, country, or hemisphere can address this on its own. Self-interest only increases the problem. We are in this together. And it's not too late for concerted, collective action for change]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2430965</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2430965</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2430965113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>It&apos;s Not Too Late</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593542514/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Our Hands]]></title><description><![CDATA[Addressing the threat of global warming and getting all of humanity to live with one another and the natural world in harmony is very possible.

The problem itself is complex, and there's no single solution. But by understanding the barriers to resolving global warming and by employing a wide range of solutions-from shifting to clean energy to planting trees to reforming agricultural practices-we can get the world back on track.

But not Michael Bloomberg and Carl Pope. Bloomberg, an entrepreneur and former mayor of New York City, and Pope, a lifelong environmental leader, approach climate change from different perspectives, yet they arrive at similar conclusions. Without agreeing on every point, they share a belief that cities, businesses, and citizens can lead--and win--the battle against climate change, no matter which way the political winds in Washington may shift. In Climate of Hope, Bloomberg and Pope offer an optimistic look at the challenge of climate change, the solutions they believe hold the greatest promise, and the practical steps that are necessary to achieve them. Writing from their own experiences, and sharing their own stories from government, business, and advocacy, Bloomberg and Pope provide a road map for tackling the most complicated challenge the world has ever faced. Along the way, they turn the usual way of thinking about climate change on its head: from top down to bottom up, from partisan to pragmatic, from costs to benefits, from tomorrow to today, and from fear to hope. Bloomberg and Pope explore climate change solutions that will make the world healthier and more prosperous. They aim to begin a new type of conversation on the issue that will spur bolder action by cities, businesses, and citizens--and even, someday, by Washington."--Jacket]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2243580</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2243580</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bloomberg, Michael]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2243580113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How Cities, Businesses, and Citizens Can Save the Planet</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781250142078/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unstoppable]]></title><description><![CDATA[For more than twenty years, Bill Nye "the Science Guy" has inspired legions of fans with an empowering message: The combination of scientific curiosity and human ingenuity can transform obstacles into opportunities and unlock a future of endless possibilities. Now, Bill applies his message of technological optimism to one of the most serious challenges facing our species: climate change. With a scientist's rigorous understanding of how things are and an engineer's vision of how things could be, he completely reframes the issue of today's environmental crisis, and views it not as the end of progress but as an opportunity for a tremendous new beginning--a moment for our society to rethink the way we live and to create a cleaner, healthier, smarter world. We need not remain shackled to the inefficient technologies of the Industrial Revolution; we need not accept pollution and environmental ruin as the inevitable costs of a vibrant economy; above all, we need not leave our children a planet that is depleted and overheated.

Con la ayuda de expertos en los campos de la física, la química, la biología, la ingeniería, las ciencias políticas y las finanzas, se ha centrado en investigar exactamente qué se debe hacer para detener la deriva del planeta hacia un desastre ambiental. En este libro, además de explicar por qué debemos esforzarnos en lograr emisiones netas cero de gases de efecto invernadero, también detalla lo que debemos hacer para lograr este objetivo tan importante. Gates nos presenta una descripción clara de los desafíos que enfrentamos. A partir de su conocimiento sobre innovación y lo que se requiere para introducir nuevas ideas en el mercado, describe las áreas en las que la tecnología ya está ayudando a reducir las emisiones, dónde y cómo la tecnología actual puede funcionar de manera más eficaz, dónde es necesario desarrollar tecnologías de punta, y quién está trabajando en estas innovaciones esenciales. Finalmente, presenta un plan concreto y práctico para lograr el objetivo de cero emisiones, sugiriendo no solo las políticas que los gobiernos deberían adoptar, sino lo que nosotros, como individuos, podemos hacer para que nuestro gobierno, nuestros empleadores y nosotros mismos nos responsabilicemos esta crucial iniciativa. Como deja claro Bill Gates, llegar a cero emisiones no será sencillo ni fácil, pero si seguimos el plan que aquí propone, es una meta que se encuentra decididamente a nuestro alcance]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2426966</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2426966</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[spa]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gates, Bill]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2426966113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>las soluciones que ya tenemos y los avances que aún necesitamos</subtitle><language>spa</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593082782/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Horsemen of the Apocalypse]]></title><description><![CDATA[Looks at how powerful businesspeople and politicians are valuing their own greed over the welfare of future generations by blocking climate change remediation]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2254037</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2254037</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Russell, Dick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2254037113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Men Who Are Destroying Life on Earth--and What It Means for Our Children</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781510721753/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[What's Left]]></title><description><![CDATA["Climate change is the unifying crisis of our time. But the scale of the problem can be paralyzing, especially when corporations are actively staving off changes that could save the planet but which might threaten their bottom lines. To quote Greta Thunberg, despite very clear science and very real devastation, the adults at the table are still saying "blah blah blah." Something has to change--but what, and how? In What's Left, Malcolm Harris cuts through the noise and gets real about our remaining options for saving the world. Just as humans have caused climate change, we hold the power to avert a climate apocalypse, but that will only happen through collective political action. Harris outlines the three strategies--progressive, socialist, and revolutionary--that have any chance of succeeding, while also revealing that none of them can succeed on their own. What's Left shows how we must combine them into a single pathway: a meta-strategy, one that will ensure we can move forward together rather than squabbling over potential solutions while the world burns." -- Provided by publisher]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2657966</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2657966</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Harris, Malcolm]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2657966113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Three Paths Through the Planetary Crisis</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780316577410/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[We Are the Weather]]></title><description><![CDATA[Our planet is warming because of human activity. Foer believes the task of saving the planet will involve a great reckoning with ourselves-- with our all-too-human reluctance to sacrifice immediate comfort for the sake of the future. We have, he reveals, turned our planet into a farm for growing animal products, and the consequences are catastrophic. Saving  our home and way of life starts with what we eat-- and don't eat-- for breakfast. -- adapted from jacket]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2365808</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2365808</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Foer, Jonathan Safran]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2365808113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Saving the Planet Begins at Breakfast</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780374280000/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life on A Little-known Planet]]></title><description><![CDATA["A landmark collection of Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Kolbert's most important pieces about climate change and the natural world "To be a well-informed citizen of Planet Earth," Rolling Stone has advised, "you need to read Elizabeth Kolbert." From her National Magazine Award-winning series The Climate of Man to her Pulitzer Prize-winning book The Sixth Extinction, Kolbert's work has shaped the way we think about the environment in the twenty-first century. Collected in Life on a Little-Known Planet are her most influential and thought-provoking essays. An intrepid reporter and a skillful translator of scientific idees, Kolbert expertly captures the wonders of nature and paints vivid portraits of the researchers and concerned citizens working to preserve them. She takes readers all around the globe, from an island in Denmark that's succeeded in going carbon neutral, to a community in Florida that voted to give rights to waterways, to the Greenland ice sheet, which is melting in a way that has implications for everyone. We meet a biologist who believes we can talk to whales, an entomologist racing to find rare caterpillars before they disappear, and a climatologist who's considered the "father of global warming," amongst other scientists at the forefront of environmental protection. The threats to our planet that Kolbert has devoted so much of her career to exposing have only grown more serious. Now is the time to deepen our understanding of the world we are in danger of losing"-- Provided by publisher]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2667057</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2667057</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kolbert, Elizabeth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2667057113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Dispatches From A Changing World</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798217086061/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Climate Change]]></title><description><![CDATA[Examines the worldwide climate change crisis, covering such topics as humankind's effect on climate, key figures in climate activism, and what readers can do to prevent further damaging changes]]></description><link>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2386388</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S113C2386388</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sharif-Draper, Maryam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://marinet.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2386388113</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781465493156/MC.GIF&amp;client=mnetp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
