Stany Nyandwi’s gift for communicating with chimpanzees is so special that world-renowned primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall has called him a “chimpanzee whisperer.” His skills and devotion to these creatures—our closest living relatives, with whom we share 98.7 percent of our DNA—have earned him international awards and sent him on travels within Africa and around the world.

Esiste un cibo che è allo stesso tempo gentile con il corpo e con il pianeta. È un cibo intelligente, adatto all’Antropocene, l’epoca in cui viviamo e dove sono gli esseri umani a influenzare gli eventi della natura. Il cibo che ci salverà, il nuovo libro di Eliana Liotta, dimostra quanto sia indispensabile una svolta ecologica a tavola per aiutare la terra e la salute. Per salvare l’ambiente non basta più andare in giro in bici, comprare un’auto ibrida e ricordarsi di spegnere le luci. Non è sufficiente pensare solo a petrolio e carbone.

¡Hakuna matata! La vida de los animales en el planeta no puede considerarse de película, o al menos no una apta para todos los públicos. Cada año, sesenta mil millones de animales terrestres y un billón (con b de barbaridad) de animales marinos son exterminados por el hombre para convertirse en comida o en ropa, o como una forma de diversión.

¿Sabes quién es el erizo McFlurry? ¿O que el mal uso del plástico no solo es un problema de basura aunque a cada ser humano le correspondan unos 40 kilos? ¿Conoces los "tecnofósiles"? ¿Sabías que cada año fabricamos 500 millones de botellas de plástico? ¿Y que los microplásticos del subsuelo podrían llegar a afectar a los cultivos? ¿O que llegan a lugares tan remotos que incluso alcanzan a la fauna del Amazonas?

Come le piante navigano intorno al mondo, come portano la vita su isole sterili, come sono state in grado di crescere in luoghi inaccessibili e inospitali, come riescono a viaggiare attraverso il tempo, come convincono gli animali a farsi trasportare ovunque. Sono solo alcune delle incredibili storie raccontate da Stefano Mancuso.

Vivimos rodeados de plástico, ajenos a su toxicidad. Lo utilizamos constantemente en nuestro día a día: para almacenar alimentos, embotellar agua, transportar nuestras compras, etc., sin tener en cuenta el devastador impacto que tiene en la naturaleza y en nuestra salud. ¿Qué podemos hacer para solucionarlo? Yurena González lleva años viviendo una vida más eco, sin plástico y sin generar basura, y sin renunciar un ápice a su comodidad. ¿Cómo lo ha conseguido?

We have quietly performed one of the strangest tricks in the history of belief. We let go of the old story that a creator set us above all living things and handed us the world to use—and then we kept the world anyway. We dropped the doctrine and pocketed the privilege. We still breed, train, cage, eat, and rearrange the lives of other creatures as though a permission slip from heaven were tucked in our back pocket, even after we have announced, loudly, that we no longer believe in the one who signed it. This book begins in that contradiction and follows it everywhere it leads.
