”En kærlighedserklæring til skoven” Der sker de forunderligste ting i skoven: Træerne kommunikerer med hinanden. De drager ikke kun kærlig omsorg for deres afkom, de tager sig også af deres gamle og syge naboer. Træer har både følelser, fornemmelser og hukommelse. Det lyder måske utroligt. Men det er sandt. Skovfoged Peter Wohlleben kaster nyt lys over skovenes tætte tykninger og giver os et overraskende indblik i en hemmelighedsfuld verden. I sine fascinerende beretninger om træernes uanede evner trækker han både på sine egne erfaringer og på de nyeste videnskabelige opdagelser. ”Træernes hemmelige liv” er solgt i mere end 400.000 eksemplarer i Tyskland og er strøget ind på bestsellerlister verden over.

In this urgent, authoritative book, Bill Gates sets out a wide-ranging, practical - and accessible - plan for how the world can get to zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to avoid a climate catastrophe. Bill Gates has spent a decade investigating the causes and effects of climate change. With the help of experts in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, political science, and finance, he has focused on what must be done in order to stop the planet's slide toward certain environmental disaster.In this book, he not only explains why we need to work toward net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases, but also details what we need to do to achieve this profoundly important goal. He gives us a clear-eyed description of the challenges we face. Drawing on his understanding of innovation and what it takes to get new ideas into the market, he describes the areas in which technology is already helping to reduce emissions, where and how the current technology can be made to function more effectively, where breakthrough technologies are needed, and who is working on these essential innovations.Finally, he lays out a concrete, practical plan for achieving the goal of zero emissions-suggesting not only policies that governments should adopt, but what we as individuals can do to keep our government, our employers, and ourselves accountable in this crucial enterprise. As Bill Gates makes clear, achieving zero emissions will not be simple or easy to do, but if we follow the plan he sets out here, it is a goal firmly within our reach.

Christina Vorre har besøgt 10 danske øer, hvor befolkningstallet igennem det sidste århundrede har været faldende: Birkholm, Baagø, Christiansø/Frederiksø, Hirsholmene, Hjortø, Livø, Mandø, Skarø, Vejrø og Saltholm. Nogle af øerne er næsten affolket, mens andre stadig kæmper for deres overlevelse. Forfatteren beskriver nogle af de sidste øboeres tilværelse, men har også den historiske baggrund med: Hvordan var her at bo engang? Og hvorfor er det gået, som det er gået? Læseren kan fx stifte bekendtskab med Jørgen, eneboeren på Hirsholmene, og høre historien om 96-årige Mie, der efter 67 år på Mandø stadig er tilflytter. Vi dykker også ned i de ulykkelige historier fra mandehjemmet på Livø, og møder den allersidste fåreavler på Saltholm bare 12 kilometer fra Rådhuspladsen. Illustreret med over 100 fotos.

De dystre forudsigelser om en forestående klimakatastrofe dyrkes i dag som en religion. Med FNs klimapanel som det øverste præsteskab og CO2-kvoter som moderne aflad. Men hvad nu hvis der ikke er nogen videnskabeligt bevislig sammenhæng mellem drivhusgasser, temperaturstigninger, vildt vejr og smeltende gletsjere? Hvad nu hvis klimaet forandrer sig, ligesom det altid har gjort – uanset hvad mennesker gør? I denne øjenåbnende og foruroligende bog om alarmismens vildfarelser og klimaets sande tilstand tager professor emeritus Johannes Krüger bladet fra munden. Han kortlægger de mange fejlagtige antagelser om klimaet, som for tiden har drevet verdenssamfundet ud i en nytteløs kampagne mod global opvarmning. Og han viser, at drivkraften bag nutidens små klimaforandringer er naturlige klimasvingninger på den store skala, og at CO2’s betydning er overvurderet. Johannes Krüger forklarer blandt meget andet, hvordan verdenshavene vil fortsætte med at stige i de kommende århundreder og årtusinder, uantastet af klimakorrekt levevis. At polerne ikke smelter med alarmerende hast. At de tropiske orkaner og storme ikke er blevet flere, men færre end for årtier siden. Og at tørker og mudderskred i den tredje verden ikke er konsekvensen af CO2-udslip, men af en befolkningseksplosion, der kræver mad og forandrer hele landskaber. Johannes Krüger, f. 1941, er tidligere professor ved Institut for Geografi og Geologi, Københavns Universitet, med forskningsområdet gletsjere og landskab i samspil med klimaet før og nu. Han er desuden forfatter til flere bøger og populærvidenskabelige artikler og er en efterspurgt foredragsholder.

Nemme og helt konkrete råd til, hvordan man som almindelig dansker kan leve mere klimavenligt og yde sit eget bidrag til at redde kloden. Klimakrisen er på alles læber, og stadig flere danskere vil gerne leve klimavenligt og ændre rutiner, vaner og forbrug, hvis det kan skabe en bedre fremtid, for vores efterkommere. Men hvordan gør man? Mange oplever stor forvirring omkring, hvad en ’klimavenlig hverdag’ og et ’klimavenligt forbrug’ egentligt er. Forfatterne er erfarne klimajournalister og har ryddet op i undersøgelser, klimaråd, der peger i mange retninger, rapporter og halve og hele sandheder i debatten og har underbygget deres grundige research med de mest præcise tal og nyeste data. Klimaguiden er således en uundværlig guide i forhold til at blive klogere på, hvad vi selv kan gøre, og hvad der har størst effekt og giver praktiske råd til små og lidt større greb i hverdagen. Bogen er bygget overskueligt op i kapitler, der hver handler om en vigtig del af vores tilværelse som mad, bolig, transport, penge, rejser og tøj. Kapitlerne gennemgår alt, hvad der er relevant at vide inden for hvert område og giver konkrete råd til, hvordan livet kan indrettes klimavenligt. Danskerne har verdens syvende største CO2-forbrug pr. indbygger, og den enkelte kan gøre en forskel i sin hverdag. Klimaguiden viser hvordan.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFor the first time ever, an international coalition of leading researchers, scientists and policymakers has come together to offer a set of realistic and bold solutions to climate change. All of the techniques described here - some well-known, some you may have never heard of - are economically viable, and communities throughout the world are already enacting them. From revolutionizing how we produce and consume food to educating girls in lower-income countries, these are all solutions which, if deployed collectively on a global scale over the next thirty years, could not just slow the earth's warming, but reach drawdown: the point when greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere peak and begin todecline. So what are we waiting for?

It's not what you eat that's damaging your health it's how that food is 'made'. The truth behind ultra-processed food that the food industry doesn't want you to know.

Selvforsyning er kodeordet for Frank Erichsen på Kastaniegården uden for Grenå på Djursland. Som i det første bind af "Det enkle liv" deler han i nr. 2 bog ud af sine erfaringer med projekter han har gennemprøvet og som man har kunnet følge på tv. Med lige dele opfindsomhed, ihærdighed og stædighed kaster han sig i denne bog ud i projekter som at holde geder, om at sætte hegn, om at dyrke bær, bygge udhuse og dyrke kartofler. Familien, kone og to små børn, følger interesseret med på sidelinjen og er de første til at afprøve og bedømme resultatet. Med stemningsfyldte fotos af bl.a. Sofie Klougart og instruktive tegninger af Theresa Jessing.
