Växthusplaneten - Vårt Nya Hem
Den globala upphettningen är här, med temperaturrekord, torka, skogsbränder, regnstormar, översvämningar och en allt större oförutsägbarhet vad gäller vädermönster. Och då befinner vi oss ändå bara i början på den omvälvning det handlar om. Det talas ofta om "det nya normala", men detta normalläge kommer i själva verket inte att infinna sig än på flera decennier. Så mycket upphettning har våra utsläpp redan "bakat in" i systemet. Men det som vi gör nu - eller inte gör - avgör vad som händer på längre sikt. I "Växthusplaneten" diskuterar Bill McGuire, professor emeritus i Geophysical and Climate Hazards vid University College i London, mänsklighetens påverkan på jordens klimat och livsvillkor på ett lika koncist som begripligt vis. Han går också igenom vad dramatiska klimatförändringar i det geologiska förflutna - som den tvåhundratusen år långa PETM-episoden för 56 miljoner år sedan, då krokodiler trivdes vid nordpolen - säger om klimatsystemets många återkopplingar och mänsklighetens reella manöverutrymme. Konsekvenserna av vårt kollektiva "koldioxidexperiment" riskerar att bli katastrofala - detta också på grund av en samhällsordning som förnekar problemets omfattning och fördröjer den grundliga ekonomiska, strukturella och vardagliga omställning som krävs. Bill McGuire är född 1954 och professor emeritus i Geophysical and Climate Hazards, University College, London.
Backpacking Through Bedlam
Seanan McGuire's New York Times-bestselling and Hugo Award-nominated urban fantasy InCryptid series continues with the twelfth book following the Price family, cryptozoologists who study and protect the creatures living in secret all around us.Reunion, noun:1.

See also "impossible."Alice Price-Healy gave up her life for fifty years to focus completely on the search for her missing husband. The danger of focus like that is that it leaves little room for thinking about what happens after...and now that she's finally managed to find Thomas, she has no idea what she's supposed to do next. The fact that he comes with a surrogate daughter who may or may not have some connection to Alice's recently adopted grandson is just icing on the complicated cake.So the three of them are heading for the most complicated place in the universe: they're going home.But things on Earth have changed while Alice, Thomas, and Sally have been away. The Covenant of St. George, antagonized by Verity's declaration of war and Sarah's temporary relocation of an entire college campus, is trying to retake North America from the cryptids and cryptozoologists who've been keeping the peace for the past hundred years. And they're starting in New York.Alice and company have barely been back for an hour before the Ocean Lady and the Queen of the Routewitches are sending them to New York to help, and they find themselves embroiled in the politics of dragons, kidnappings, and of course, the most dangerous people of all: family.Getting "back to normal" may be the hardest task Alice has undertaken yet.
