The myth of an easy energy transition is unraveling—but the future isn’t yet written. Oil and gas leaders now face "The Moment"—a generational opportunity to move beyond status quo political polarization and step forward as indispensable leaders. In The Myth and the Moment, Tisha Schuller provides the roadmap for navigating "The Moment" with clarity, pragmatism, and trust.

Che cosa accadrebbe se un giorno ci svegliassimo e il mondo in cui viviamo ci apparisse stranamente alieno, come se fossimo stati teletrasportati in qualche pianeta remoto? Ebbene, oggi questa spaventosa ipotesi è quantomai reale. Per effetto del riscaldamento globale assistiamo sempre più spesso a eventi meteorologici estremi - inondazioni primaverili, prolungate siccità estive, ondate di calore e incendi incontrollati, violenti uragani -, ciascuno dei quali devasta gli ecosistemi e distrugge l'infrastruttura sociale.

Gavin Pretor Pinney is the chairman and founder member of the Cloud Appreciation Society. He contends that we are blessed in this country with a uniquely rich and varied cloudscape, which has hitherto been sadly undervalued. His audiobook teaches us to appreciate their different varieties - the cumulus, nimbostratus and Morning Glory to name only a few - and all their beauties and significances, both meteorological and cultural.

Sixty-six million years ago an asteroid as large as Mt. Everest hit what is now the Yucatan Peninsula at a speed ten times faster than the fastest rifle bullet. Debris from the impact blew into space, re-entered the atmosphere as a swarm of shooting stars that burned the global forests and grasslands, leaving behind a thin global layer containing rock from the asteroid and from Mexico, and smoke from the fires. This layer marks one of the greatest extinctions in Earth history including not just dinosaurs, but also fish, plankton, ammonites, and plants making up about 75% of the known species.

A geografia sempre moldou a nossa vida. O poder, as guerras, a política e o desenvolvimento social e humano, incluindo língua, comércio e religião, são delimitados por ela – e assim continua a ser, mesmo com os avanços tecnológicos. Claro que ela não determina o curso de todos os acontecimentos: grandes ideias e grandes líderes são parte importante dos movimentos da história. Mas eles devem todos operar conforme os limites da geografia.

In Earth, a planetary scientist and a literary humanist explore what happens when we think of the Earth as an object viewable from space. As a “blue marble,” “a blue pale dot,” or, as Chaucer described it, “this litel spot of erthe,” the solitary orb is a challenge to scale and to human self-importance. Beautiful and self-contained, the Earth turns out to be far less knowable than it at first appears: its vast interior an inferno of incandescent and yet solid rock and a reservoir of water vaster than the ocean, a world within the world.

Earth stands at a tipping point. As we fail to curtail emissions fast enough, our planet stares down a cascade of imminent, catastrophic, and irreversible disaster triggered by climate change. Yet a potent technology already exists to buy us more time: solar geoengineering. Through methods such as atmospheric aerosols, human-generated cirrus clouds, and solar sails, we humans can—at least in the short term—slow the Earth's warming. Should we?
