Species are going extinct, forests are burning, and children are worried about the future and their peers worldwide. But that is not the whole story: One Friday in 2018, a few young people joined Greta Thunberg to protest, and the global climate strike movement was born. Scientist David Fopp spent 250 Fridays with the newly formed grassroots movements. Together with activists Isabelle Axelsson and Loukina Tille, he offers an insider perspective on how scientists and activists can fight for a just and sustainable global society. The volume also offers both an introduction to ecophilosophy and a unified science of democracy in times of interdependent crises. How can research in all disciplines - from (drama) education and economics to psychology - help with this struggle? And how can we all fight the climate crisis by transforming and deepening democracy?

Dieses Open-Access-Buch beschäftigt sich mit Umweltproblemen, die selbst im Kontext der heutigen globalen ökologischen Krise weitgehend gesellschaftlich unsichtbar bleiben, da sie ihre oftmals schwerwiegenden sozial-ökologischen Auswirkungen allmählich, schleichend und über längere Zeiträume hinweg in Form einer slow violence (Rob Nixon) entfalten. Am Beispiel der toxischen Industrieabfälle (Tailings) der chilenischen Bergbauindustrie werden in der Untersuchung anhand von drei Fallstudien die zentralen Gründe und Dimensionen dieser Unsichtbarkeit dargestellt und ihr Zusammenspiel analysiert.

The book about Non-bacterial toxins will cover those toxins that affect food safety and are produced by fungi (mycotoxins), cyanobacteria (cyanotoxins) and marine microalgae (phycotoxins). These three group of toxins affect food safety and drinking water quality at a global scale, and they pose three main challenges for scientists: 1) Climate change is causing a slow but steady change on the chemical profile of each of these groups, causing intoxications in areas that are geographically new to the intoxications map. For this reason, emerging toxins are a new topic that requires an important reallocation of resources to understand the new toxins trends, their toxicology, their analytical control and how to deal with them from a regulatory standpoint. 2) Toxicological science needs to be updated to determine the impact of the toxins in all kind of vectors (more and more are being discovered) and how they disseminate on the food chain. Also, the mode of action of many of this toxins is not understood or even known, and this affects also to the impact of the coexistence of several toxins in the same matrix. 3) Detection and regulation, as this requires the use of advance technology (mass spectrometry, biosensors, multitask screening etc) that is in many cases underdevelopped or not available, especially for many of the new toxins. Climate change, toxicology and detection affect so many areas of science that this book will try to keep the readers updated about the current state of the art.

Dieses Buch umfasst die wesentlichen Grundlagen einer praxisorientierten Mobilitätsplanung. Im Gegensatz zur Verkehrsplanung fokussiert sich die Mobilitätsplanung auf den Menschen als zentrale Figur der Verkehrsentwicklung und entwirft daraus neue Perspektiven für die Planung. Mobilitätsplanung löst damit die Abhängigkeit vom technischen Artefakt des Verkehrs und zielt stattdessen darauf ab, direkt die Möglichkeiten der Menschen zu verstehen und zu beeinflussen. Das Buch richtet sich somit an alle Akteure, welche die Mobilität der Menschen in unterschiedlicher Weise beeinflussen. Klassischerweise gehören hierzu alle Ebenen der Planungspraxis, von Ministerien bis hin zu kommunalen Verwaltungen und Planungsbüros. Aber auch politisch Entscheidungstragende, Unternehmen und zivilgesellschaftliche Akteure gehören zu den Adressaten dieses Buches, da sie maßgeblich an der zukünftigen Entwicklung von Mobilität und Verkehr mitwirken.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “The visionary author of How to Do Nothing returns to challenge the notion that ‘time is money.’ . . . Expect to feel changed by this radical way of seeing.”—Esquire “One of the most important books I’ve read in my life.”—Ed Yong, author of An Immense WorldA BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: Harper’s Bazaar, Esquire, Chicago Public Library, Electric LitIn her first book, How to Do Nothing, Jenny Odell wrote about the importance of disconnecting from the “attention economy” to spend time in quiet contemplation. But what if you don’t have time to spend?In order to answer this seemingly simple question, Odell took a deep dive into the fundamental structure of our society and found that the clock we live by was built for profit, not people. This is why our lives, even in leisure, have come to seem like a series of moments to be bought, sold, and processed ever more efficiently. Odell shows us how our painful relationship to time is inextricably connected not only to persisting social inequities but to the climate crisis, existential dread, and a lethal fatalism.This dazzling, subversive, and deeply hopeful book offers us different ways to experience time—inspired by pre-industrial cultures, ecological cues, and geological timescales—that can bring within reach a more humane, responsive way of living. As planet-bound animals, we live inside shortening and lengthening days alongside gardens growing, birds migrating, and cliffs eroding; the stretchy quality of waiting and desire; the way the present may suddenly feel marbled with childhood memory; the slow but sure procession of a pregnancy; the time it takes to heal from injuries. Odell urges us to become stewards of these different rhythms of life in which time is not reducible to standardized units and instead forms the very medium of possibility.Saving Time tugs at the seams of reality as we know it—the way we experience time itself—and rearranges it, imagining a world not centered on work, the office clock, or the profit motive. If we can “save” time by imagining a life, identity, and source of meaning outside these things, time might also save us.

Despite frequent protests and abounding discussions about the subject, climate action measures to counter human-made climate change have so far remained largely ineffective. By identifying profound climate-cultural differences, Sarah Kessler offers an explanation to this issue and shows that conventional assumptions of an implicit consensus on the need to prioritise climate action should be reconsidered. She uncovers climate-cultural variations in (implicit and explicit) denial of climate change and thus challenges existing approaches that treat the German public as a unified entity waiting to be activated by the right kind of rationally convincing information.
