On 7 February 2009, Roger Wood was the police officer in charge of Kinglake, at the epicentre of the worst ever bushfire disaster in Australia's history, Black Saturday. As the firestorm engulfed the community, he risked his life again and again to try to save people. When he phoned home to warn his wife what was coming, she screamed that the fire had already hit their property. Then the line went dead.

Ticked: The Battle Over Lyme Disease in the South is the second installment of Discover In-Depth, Discover magazine's new longform series. In this deep investigation of the science surrounding Lyme disease, writer Wendy Orent dissects how tick-borne illness is diagnosed in the Southern United States, where the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) do not recognize Lyme even though thousands of people in the South have reported Lyme-like symptoms and debilitating illness.

Story2
Once, farmers knew how to make a living hedge and fed their flocks on tree-branch hay. Rural people knew how to prune hazel to foster abundance: both of edible nuts, and of straight, strong, flexible rods for bridges, walls, and baskets. No place could prosper without its inhabitants knowing how to cut their trees so they would sprout again. This created the healthiest, most sustainable, and most diverse woodlands that we have ever known. In this journey from the English fens to Spain, Japan, and California, William Bryant Logan rediscovers what was once an everyday ecology.

Drawing from decades of Sufi teaching, a deep relationship with nature, and the transformative power of story, Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee guides us beyond today’s ecological and cultural crises to the heart of the matter: our collective forgetfulness and the severing of our primordial bond with Earth. Following the entwined threads of grief and love, he explains how this moment of crisis holds within it the seeds of transformation and regrowth.

Story1
Cinq ans après l'accord de Paris sur le climat, l'auteur constate un échec de l'entreprise. Il explique que les émissions mondiales de CO2 ont continué à augmenter, notamment à cause des pays tels que la Chine et l'Inde qui ne se sont engagés à rien. Selon lui, les dépenses consacrées à la transition écologique en Europe ne pourront rien faire face à l'explosion des émissions du tiers-monde. La température moyenne de la planète a augmenté d'environ 1°c depuis un siècle et demi.

Story1
Brilliant offers a sweeping view of a surprisingly revealing aspect of human history - from the stone lamps of the Pleistocene to the LEDs embedded in fabrics of the future. Jane Brox plumbs the class implications of light - who had it, who didn't - through the many centuries when crude lamps and tallow candles constricted waking hours. Brillant is infused with human voices, startling insights, and - only a few years before it becomes illegal to sell most incandescent light bulbs in the United States - timely questions about how our future lives will be shaped by light.

Beginning with his interactions with Dr Salim Ali, the legendary ornithologist - who was also his grand-uncle - wildlife biologist Rauf Ali takes the listener on a journey through India’s natural history and the beginning of ecological studies in India. Rauf was one of the first Indians to complete a PhD in wildlife biology - he researched the social behaviour of bonnet macaques in the forests of Mundanthurai region in Tamil Nadu. In the late 1980s, he was instrumental in setting up one of India’s first master's programmes in ecology.

In The Marsh Builders, Sharon Levy delves into the intertwined histories of wetlands loss and water pollution. The book's springboard is the tale of a years-long citizen uprising in Humboldt County, California, which led to the creation of one of the first US wetlands designed to treat city sewage. The book explores the global roots of this local story: the cholera epidemics that plagued 19th-century Europe; the researchers who invented modern sewage treatment after bumbling across the insight that microbes break down pollutants in water; and more.

As a graduate student exploring the rain forests of Australia, Meg Lowman realized that she couldn’t monitor her beloved leaves using any of the usual methods. So she put together a climbing kit: she sewed a harness from an old seat belt, gathered hundreds of feet of rope, and found a tool belt for her pencils and rulers. Up she went, into the trees. Forty years later, Lowman remains one of the world’s foremost arbornauts, known as the “real-life Lorax.”

Emetto più CO2 se mangio carne bovina biologica, polli da allevamento intensivo, frutti di mare o un trancio di pesce spada? È davvero utile adottare alveari di api o finanziare aziende o associazioni che piantano alberi in giro per il mondo? Ogni giorno la nostra vita è riempita da una serie di dilemmi etici e morali che assomigliano molto a queste domande. Ormai, infatti, abbiamo tutti gli strumenti per capire che ogni nostro comportamento produce un impatto sul pianeta. Eppure, nonostante questa consapevolezza, spesso ci sentiamo impotenti di fronte ai mille problemi che la crisi ambientale ci pone di fronte quotidianamente.
