Robert Macfarlane brings his glittering style to a profound work of travel writing, reportage, and natural history. Is a River Alive? is a joyful, mind-expanding exploration of an ancient, urgent idea: that rivers are living beings who should be recognized as such in imagination and law. Macfarlane takes listeners on three unforgettable journeys teeming with extraordinary people, stories, and places: to the miraculous cloud-forests and mountain streams of Ecuador, to the wounded creeks and lagoons of India, and to the spectacular wild rivers of Canada.

No eres solo humano, eres un universo de bacterias con más poder sobre ti del que crees…¡úsalo a tu favor! "El camino hacia la salud microbiana no es tarea sencilla. Sin embargo, con valentía, constancia, determinación y el apoyo de profesionales capacitados, lograrás que sea posible". ¿Sabías que en nuestro cuerpo existen más de 38 billones de bacterias? ¿Y que si las agrupamos conforman al menos mil especies distintas? Están en todas partes: en los intes¬tinos, en la boca, en el aparato reproductor, en toda nuestra piel.

The universe, in all its boundless complexity, is a riddle that has captivated human curiosity for millennia. We gaze into the night sky not just to admire the stars, but to ask the questions that seem to echo back at us from the void: What is everything made of? How did we get here? And why does the universe behave the way it does?

From the 1948 US edition: This is the story of the most publicized jungle animal that ever lived. In his best-selling Man-Eater's of Kumaon, Jim Corbett told of his battles with many man-eating tigers. In this book he tells a sustained and climactic story of his hard-won battle with a single leopard. Leopards very rarely become man-eaters, but those few that do are the peers of the man-eating tigers in ferocity and possess an even greater cunning.

In this conversation, acclaimed author Robert Macfarlane asks the ancient and urgent question: is a river alive? Understanding rivers to be presences, not resources, he immerses us in the ways they “irrigate our bodies, thoughts, songs, and stories,” and how we might recognize this within our imagination and ethics. He speaks about his latest book, and traces his journeys down the Río Los Cedros in Ecuador, the waterways of Chennai in India, and the Mutehekau Shipu in Nitassinan and how each brought him to experience these water bodies as willful, spirited, and sacred beings.

In Escaping Nature, Orrin H. Pilkey and his coauthors offer concrete suggestions for how to respond to the threats posed by global climate change.

When longtime AI expert and journalist Karen Hao first began covering OpenAI in 2019, she thought they were the good guys. Founded as a nonprofit with safety enshrined as its core mission, it was meant, its leader Sam Altman told us, to act as a check against more purely market forces. In exhilarating prose and with unparalleled access to those closest to Sam Altman, Hao recounts the meteoric rise of OpenAI and shows us the sinister impact that this industry is having on society.

This past week, Americans were captivated by the enigma of Non-Human Intelligence (NHI). In Washington, a planned UAP hearing was abruptly canceled, but behind closed doors, key lawmakers received explosive briefings on secret programs and ongoing cover-ups. With an assist from noted whistleblower David Grusch, a small cadre of expert witnesses fueled these high-stakes discussions. Meanwhile in Oregon, thousands gathered to watch a spectacular parade of bizarre creatures, hammerhead aliens, marching musicians from other galaxies, and noted speakers as part of the McMinnville UFO Fest, which is...

Hva skjer når nyutdannede lærere møter virkeligheten – med forventninger, regler og stramme systemer? I denne episoden snakker vi om hva som faktisk trengs for at barn skal lære kompetansemål: Trygghet, tid, relasjon og mot til å stå i det som er ubehagelig. Vi snakker om hvordan skolen selv kan legge til rette for at alle barn opplever å passe inn, føle verdi i felleskapet og dermed ha lyst til å være på skolen.Vi hører historier om lek, mestring, tillit og ansvar – og om hvordan det føles å være lærer midt i spennet mellom det vi vet er lurt og det vi blir bedt om å ...

I define creativity as the ability to do great things with few resources. It is a combination of ingenuity, resourcefulness and focus; note that this definition includes a useful output as a key requirement. Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) is the archetype of long-term literary creativity; while his ingenuity and resourcefulness earned him a prominent place as an essayist, his focus turned him into a philosopher. What was Montaigne’s purpose in writing? To gather facts, assess them independently, and draw valid conclusions. Every essay written by Montaigne aims at establishing the truth in a...

La población humana se ha asentado en ciudades de forma creciente, y más de dos tercios de estas urbes se encuentran en las costas. Las ciudades costeras existen porque es ahí donde suelen abundar los servicios ecosistémicos, ya que los mares adyacentes suministran alimentos, permiten el transporte y el comercio, arrastran residuos, etc. Esta cercanía hace que muchas de las soluciones de a problemática marina se encuentre en la gestión de nuestras ciudades, por la demanda de recursos que estas hacen a los ecosistemas marinos y costeros. En esta emisión platicamos con organizaciones ...
