Miseducation: How Climate Change is Taught in America by Katie Worth
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/509084 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Miseducation: How Climate Change is Taught in America Author: Katie Worth Narrator: Emily Ellet Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 51 minutes Release date: November 16, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: Why are so many American children learning so much misinformation about climate change? Investigative reporter Katie Worth reviewed scores of textbooks, built a 50-state database, and traveled to a dozen communities to talk to children and teachers about what is being taught, and found a red-blue divide in climate education. More than one-third of young adults believe that climate change is not man-made, and science teachers who teach global warming are being contradicted by history teachers who tell children not to worry about it. Who has tried to influence what children learn, and how successful have they been? Worth connects the dots to find out how oil corporations, state legislatures, school boards, and textbook publishers sow uncertainty, confusion, and distrust about climate science. A thoroughly researched, eye-opening look at how some states do not want children to learn the facts about climate change.

Our Biggest Experiment by Alice Bell
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/513575 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Our Biggest Experiment Author: Alice Bell Narrator: Rachel Atkins Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 48 minutes Release date: July 8, 2021 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: Maybe it's the weirdness of the weather. Maybe it's another way to pour scorn on politicians. Maybe the steady stream of headlines about fires, floods and droughts is finally starting to get to us. Whatever it is, for more and more of us, climate change is shifting from a shadowy fear in the backs of our minds to something we feel we need to get a handle on. Climate change may be a horror story, but, as Our Biggest Experiment shows, the tale of how we discovered it isn't. The discovery of climate change didn't feature a 'Eureka!' moment - it was a slow and gradual realisation as each new generation pieced together a little more information. Our exploration of the Earth's fluctuating environment is an extraordinary story of human perception and scientific endeavour. It also began much earlier than we might think. This book takes us back to climate change science's earliest steps in the 18th and 19th centuries, through the point when concern started to rise in the 1950s and right up to today, where the 'debate' is over and the world is finally starting to face up to the reality that things are going to get a lot hotter, a lot drier (in some places) and a lot wetter (in others), with catastrophic consequences for most of Earth's biomes. Our Biggest Experiment recounts how the world became addicted to fossil fuels, how we discovered that electricity could be a saviour, and how renewable energy is far from a 20th-century discovery. Alice Bell cuts through the jargon and jumble of numbers to show how we're getting to grips with what is now the defining issue of our time. The message she relays is ultimately hopeful; harnessing the ingenuity and intelligence that has driven the history of climate change research can mean a more sustainable and bearable future for humanity.

A Garden Bird Year by Mike Toms
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/492765 to listen full audiobooks. Title: A Garden Bird Year Author: Mike Toms Narrator: Neville Watchurst Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 18 minutes Release date: July 8, 2021 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: Britain’s gardens are a vast, living landscape and the home to hundreds of species of birds. Learn to pay attention to these visitors to your own garden or local park and you’ll have a front-row seat to the unfolding drama that is the garden bird’s year. As dawn breaks across your back garden, if you were paying attention, you would notice that the robin and the blackbird are always the first birds to arrive. These ground hunters have large eyes, so don’t mind the dim light of the early morning. And that’s just the beginning of what you can learn watching your own back garden. Ornithologist Mike Toms has spent a year avidly observing his own garden, and the result is a comprehensive picture of the lives of garden birds. From the crowded yet quiet January garden populated by migratory fieldfares and bramblings, to the riotous gardens of spring, filled with songbirds competing for mates, the garden ecosystem changes throughout the year. Learn to spot these changes, to greet the arrival of the swifts in May and the new crop of fledgling goldfinches and blackbirds in June, and you’ll find a new world opening up to you. A Garden Bird’s Year is the perfect introduction to this world. Supremely readable, it explains biology and behaviour to paint a picture of the lives of common bird species, while also offering practical information for watching and feeding the birds in your own backyard. Toms details birds’ preferences for particular plants, seeds and feeders, so you can learn to attract different species to your own garden. He also charts fascinating recent adaptations – urban birds sleep later than their rural counterparts, probably because cities are on average a few degrees warmer, and they sing either earlier or later, to avoid competing with local traffic; and the balance of migratory birds to Britain is being affected by the world’s changing climate. Many species of garden birds are threatened, but there is much that each one of us can do to support them, to attract them, and to help them thrive through the year.

The Sound of the Sea: Seashells and the Fate of the Oceans by Cynthia Barnett
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/519247 to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Sound of the Sea: Seashells and the Fate of the Oceans Author: Cynthia Barnett Narrator: Elizabeth Wiley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 8 minutes Release date: July 6, 2021 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: A compelling history of seashells and the animals that make them, revealing what they have to tell us about nature, our changing oceans, and ourselves. Seashells have been the most coveted and collected of nature's creations since the dawn of humanity. They were money before coins, jewelry before gems, art before canvas. In The Sound of the Sea, acclaimed environmental author Cynthia Barnett blends cultural history and science to trace our long love affair with seashells and the hidden lives of the mollusks that make them. Spiraling out from the great cities of shell that once rose in North America to the warming waters of the Maldives and the slave castles of Ghana, Barnett has created an unforgettable account of the world's most iconic seashells. She begins with their childhood wonder, unwinds surprising histories like the origin of Shell Oil as a family business importing exotic shells, and charts what shells and the soft animals that build them are telling scientists about our warming, acidifying seas. From the eerie calls of early shell trumpets to the evolutionary miracle of spines and spires and the modern science of carbon capture inspired by shell, Barnett circles to her central point of listening to nature's wisdom—and acting on what seashells have to say about taking care of each other and our world.

Together with wildlife sound recordist Chris Moss, they tour the UK, tracking down the rich variety of species that make their home there - from garden and woodland birds to ones that live on water, by the coast, on farms and in the mountains and moors. Recorded on location in Somerset, the Forest of Dean, Devonshire, the Marlborough Downs and Shropshire's Long Mynd, each programme focuses on a different habitat and type of bird, giving us a comprehensive overview of British avian life. There's a wealth of advice on how to recognise birds from their appearance, and identify them from their songs and calls - enabling you to easily sort out your Blue Tits from your Great Tits, and your House Sparrows from your Tree Sparrows. Brett and Stephen also share fascinating facts about bird behaviour, revealing that playful jackdaws enjoy doing acrobatics in air currents, and ravens love to 'ski' in the snow. Full of useful information and helpful tips, this box set will appeal to novice and experienced birdwatchers alike, as well as gardeners, walkers, ramblers and anyone who is keen to know more about the beautiful birds of the British Isles.

Title: the Life Between the Tides: In Search of Rockpools and Other Adventures Along the Shore Author: Adam Nicolson Narrator: Leighton Pugh Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 59 minutes Release date: June 24, 2021 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: LONGLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE 2022 ‘A remarkable and powerful book, the rarest of things … Nicolson is unique as a writer … I loved it’ EDMUND DE WAAL Few places are as familiar as the shore – and few as full of mystery and surprise. How do sandhoppers inherit an inbuilt compass from their parents? How do crabs understand the tides? How can the death of one winkle guarantee the lives of its companions? What does a prawn know? In The Sea is Not Made of Water, Adam Nicolson explores the natural wonders of the intertidal and our long human relationship with it. The physics of the seas, the biology of anemone and limpet, the long history of the earth, and the stories we tell of those who have lived here: all interconnect in this zone where the philosopher, scientist and poet can meet and find meaning. In this blend of fascinating, surprising ecology and luminous human history, Adam Nicolson gives an invitation to the shoreline. Anyone who chooses can look beyond their own reflection and find the marvellous there, waiting an inch beneath their nose.

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/505669 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Breathless: Why Air Pollution Matters - and How it Affects You Author: Chris Woodford Narrator: Nick Biadon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 2 minutes Release date: May 13, 2021 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: An accessible and hard-hitting look at the facts behind air pollution in everyday life. Take a deep breath. You'll do it 20,000 times a day. You assume all this air is clean; it's the very breath of life. But in Delhi, the toxic smog is as bad for you as smoking 50 cigarettes a day. Even a few days in Paris, London or Rome is equivalent to two or three cigarettes. Air pollution is implicated in six of the top ten causes of death worldwide, including lung cancer, heart disease, stroke, and dementia. Breathless gives us clear facts about air pollution in our everyday lives, showing how it affects our bodies, how much of it occurs in unexpected places (indoors, inside your car), and how you can minimise the risks. Rooted in the latest science, including real-time air-quality experiments in city streets and ordinary homes, it will allow you to make up your own mind about the risks and trade-offs of modern living – wherever in the world you are.

Shearwater: A Bird, an Ocean, and a Long Way Home by Roger Morgan-Grenville
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/504176 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Shearwater: A Bird, an Ocean, and a Long Way Home Author: Roger Morgan-Grenville Narrator: Roger Morgan-Grenville Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 9 minutes Release date: April 22, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: A very personal mix of memoir and natural history from the author of Liquid Gold. Ten weeks into its life, a Manx shearwater chick will emerge from its burrow and fly 8,000 miles from the west coast of the British Isles to the South Atlantic. It will be unlikely to touch land again for four years. Part memoir, part homage to wilderness, Shearwater traces the author's 50-year obsession with one of nature's supreme travellers. In the finest tradition of nature writing, Roger Morgan-Grenville, author of Liquid Gold – described by Mary Colwell (Curlew Moon) as ‘a book that ignites joy and warmth' – unpicks the science behind its incredible journey; and into the story of a year in the shearwater's life, he threads the inspirational influence of his Hebridean grandmother who instilled in him a love of wild places and wild animals. Full of lightly-worn knowledge, acute human observation and self-deprecating humour, Shearwater brings to life a truly mysterious and charismatic bird.

Volcanoes: A Very Short Introduction by Jan Zalasiewicz, Michael J. Branney
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/493851 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Volcanoes: A Very Short Introduction Author: Jan Zalasiewicz, Michael J. Branney Narrator: Mike Cooper Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 27 minutes Release date: March 9, 2021 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: Volcanoes are some of the most dramatic expressions of the powerful tectonic forces at work in the Earth beneath our feet. But volcanism, a profoundly important feature of Earth, and indeed of other planets and moons too, encompasses much more than just volcanoes themselves. On a planetary scale, volcanism is an indispensable heat release mechanism, which on Earth allows the conditions for life. It releases gases into the atmosphere and produces enormous volumes of rock, and spectacular landscapes—landscapes which, during major eruptions, can be completely reshaped in a matter of hours. Through geological time volcanism has shaped both climate and biological evolution, and volcanoes can affect human life, too, for both good and ill. Yet, even after much study, some of the fundamental aspects of volcanicity remain mysterious. This Very Short Introduction takes listeners into the inferno of a racing pyroclastic current, and the heart of a moving lava flow, as understood through the latest scientific research. Exploring how volcanologists forensically decipher how volcanoes work, Michael Branney and Jan Zalasiewicz explain what we do (and don't) understand about the fundamental mechanisms of volcanism, and consider how volcanoes interact with other physical processes on the Earth, with life, and with human society.

Title: The Bears Ears: A Human History of America's Most Endangered Wilderness Author: David Roberts Narrator: Danny Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 10 minutes Release date: February 23, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 3 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: A personal and historical exploration of the Bears Ears country and the fight to save a national monument. The Bears Ears National Monument in southeastern Utah, created by President Obama in 2016 and eviscerated by the Trump administration in 2017, contains more archaeological sites than any other region in the United States. It's also a spectacularly beautiful landscape, a mosaic of sandstone canyons and bold mesas and buttes. This wilderness, now threatened by oil and gas drilling, unrestricted grazing, and invasion by Jeep and ATV, is at the center of the greatest environmental battle in America since the damming of the Colorado River to create Lake Powell in the 1950s. In The Bears Ears, acclaimed adventure writer David Roberts takes listeners on a tour of his favorite place on earth as he unfolds the rich and contradictory human history of the 1.35 million acres of the Bears Ears domain. Weaving personal memoir with archival research, Roberts sings the praises of the outback he's explored for the last twenty-five years.

[German] - Konsum - Warum wir kaufen, was wir nicht brauchen (ungekürzt) by Carl Tillessen
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/510966 to listen full audiobooks. Title: [German] - Konsum - Warum wir kaufen, was wir nicht brauchen (ungekürzt) Author: Carl Tillessen Narrator: Martin Valdeig Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 50 minutes Release date: December 11, 2020 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: WAS KOMMT NACH DEM SHOPPEN? ÜBER DIE ZUKUNFT UNSERES KONSUMS Die Pandemie hat uns vorübergehend auf einen kalten Konsum-Entzug gesetzt. Doch sie hat uns nicht geheilt. Wir kaufen einfach immer weiter – auch Dinge, die wir eigentlich nicht brauchen. Was treibt uns dazu? Und was verändert sich gerade? Trendforscher Carl Tillessen nimmt uns mit hinter die Kulissen einer globalen Maschinerie, deren Erfolg vor allem auf Manipulation und Ausbeutung basiert. Stück für Stück seziert er die psychologischen Mechanismen, die bei uns immer wieder greifen – und schärft dabei unser Bewusstsein: für unsere eigentlichen Bedürfnisse, aber auch für die Bedingungen, unter denen unsere Smartphones und Sneaker entstehen. Denn der Preis, den die Natur und die Menschen in den Produktionsländern für unseren Hyperkonsum zahlen, ist hoch. Doch nie war die Chance, daran etwas zu ändern, so groß wie heute. 'Die Frage nach dem Brauchen ist nebensächlich geworden. Das bloße Wollen hat sich zum Motor unserer Wirtschaft entwickelt. Ein Nutzen ist nicht mehr die Voraussetzung für den Erfolg eines Produktes. Im Gegenteil: Ein nützliches Produkt macht uns bestenfalls zufrieden. Aber erst das, was über den Nutzen hinausgeht, der Luxus, macht uns glücklich. Ein Staubsaugerbeutel macht uns keine Freude, eine Duftkerze schon.' 'Dass uns Dinge umso begehrlicher erscheinen, je knapper sie sind, liegt in unserer Natur. Die Evolution hat uns beigebracht, uns alles zu sichern, was nur begrenzt verfügbar ist, weil man nie weiß, wann es das nächste Mal verfügbar sein wird. Deshalb erscheinen uns Dinge schlagartig wertvoller, wenn uns klar wird, dass sie selten sind.'

Hay pocas cosas tan especiales como el vínculo entre un niño y su cachorro. Desde hace mucho tiempo se sabe que las mascotas de la familia nos proporcionan un apoyo emocional incondicional. Así que cuando tu hijo te pida un cachorro para su cumpleaños, ¡deberías entusiasmarte! Además del vínculo emocional, tener un cachorro también es una excelente forma de enseñar a tu hijo a tener paciencia, empatía, compasión y responsabilidades, ya que requiere una supervisión constante y pasa por cambios de humor y de desarrollo. Sin embargo, por muy bonito que parezca un cachorro, es crucial que tú y tu hijo comprendan sus necesidades para que puedan cuidarlo mejor. En la mayoría de los casos, los cachorros se dan en adopción porque las familias no están equipadas con las herramientas y los conocimientos adecuados para cuidar de un cachorro desorientado y confundido.

Tree Wisdom by Vincent Karche
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/483768 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Tree Wisdom Author: Vincent Karche Narrator: Peter Marinker Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 16 minutes Release date: December 17, 2019 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: Trees are our constant companions. They stand tall above us, shading us from the sun. They breathe in and out, feeding us oxygen. They weather the storms, protecting us from danger. As children we intuitively understand the impact trees have on our lives. We sit beneath their branches, we collect their fallen leaves, we hug their trunks in thanks. But in the process of growing up, we forget these gentle giants. We move to cities, we commute through concrete jungles and we switch off from nature. Opera singer and forester Vincent Karche knows the impact of disconnecting all too well. After years away from his forestry roots, and under the stress of an international singing career, burnout took its toll and he lost his voice. Vincent's healing journey took him to the forests of northern Canada, where he reconnected with trees and recovered not just his voice, but his joy for life. In Tree Wisdom, Vincent teaches us what a year of healing among the trees can look like. Each lesson mirrors the wondrous way our tall timber friends have learned to thrive through the seasons. Each lesson is simple in nature, a push of the pause button, a chance to re-centre on what matters. If you can hear the call of nature, willing you back to a simpler time, this audiobook will show you the way.

[German] - Du entscheidest!: Reiten mit gutem Gewissen by Christin Krischke
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/479215 to listen full audiobooks. Title: [German] - Du entscheidest!: Reiten mit gutem Gewissen Author: Christin Krischke Narrator: Christin Krischke Format: Abridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 39 minutes Release date: January 31, 2018 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: 'Nur wer die Vergangenheit kennt, hat eine Zukunft' wird der preußische Universalgelehrte Wilhelm von Humboldt gerne in der Fürstlichen Hofreitschule in Bückeburg zitiert. Ob in den 4000 Jahren, die auf der Welt bereits ohne 'Trabverstärkungen' und 'Vorwärts-Abwärts' geritten und dabei wirklich so viel falsch gemacht wurde, wie der moderne Dressursport es heute glauben machen will, nimmt Christin Krischke, Mitbegründerin und Direktorin von Deutschlands einziger Hofreitschule, unter die Lupe. Seit über 25 Jahren erforscht sie mit ihrem Mann Wolfgang die Hintergründe historischer Reiterei im Feldversuch, am lebenden Pferd. Mit Historikern, Museumskuratoren und experimentelle Archäologen stellen sie vergessene Übungen, Ausrüstungen und Begebenheiten nach und bringen die erstaunlichsten und einleuchtendsten Erklärungen zutage. Wissen, das die moderne Reiterei auf den Kopf zu stellen vermag. Auf das durch die Weltkriege entstandene Vakuum an Reitwissen, das sich bis heute in den Köpfen der Funktionäre, Sportreiter und Freizeitreiter fortpflanzt, zielt die Kritik der Autorin ab. In der Historie und Entwicklung der Beziehung zwischen Pferd und Mensch liegen alle Informationen und das 'Handwerkszeug', um pferdegerecht reiten zu können. Ermutigende Aussichten für eine Reiterei, die sich vor siebzig Jahren von allem Althergebrachten abnabelte, um heute zu einer 5 Milliarden Euro schweren Industrie auszuufern. Neben allen kritischen Worten zu den Konventionen des Reitsports, bietet Christin Krischke dem Hörer solide belegte Alternativen im Bezug auf Umgang, Methoden, Ausrüstung und Reiterei an, die dem denkenden Reiter die Entscheidungsfreiheit zurückgeben, und das nötige Hintergrundwissen, um die Entscheidungen guten Gewissens verantworten zu können.
