Global warming. Soil loss. Freshwater scarcity. Extinction. Overconsumption. Toxic waste production. Habitat and biodiversity erosion. These are only a few of our most urgent ecological crises. There are others as well and, despite the popularity of good-news environmentalism, few of them are going away. In this wide-ranging, grimly entertaining commentary on the environmental debate, Tom Athanasiou finds that these problems are exacerbated, if not caused, by the planet's division into "warring camps of rich and poor." Writing with passionate intelligence, Athanasiou proposes a simple yet radical solution--stop indulging easy, calming fantasies in which everything seems to change, but nothing important changes at all. Instead, do what needs to be done, now, while there is still time and goodwill. The bottom line, he concludes, is that there will be no sustainability without a large measure of justice. Without profound political and economic change, he argues, there can be no effective global environmental action, no real effort to save the planet.

There are many serious divides political, religious, economic, and others that threaten our planet. This book is about how individually we can contribute to healing the divides between us.

Because solutions will take time, Serafin dedicates and addresses this book to his grandchildren and to your own grandchildren as well. The stories titles beckon your attention or promise surprise or entertainment, such as Stories of people who died and then came back, The sex act: a most private act with huge public consequences and The root causes of poverty are not economic. The author loves to stimulate you to think and he enjoys offering you potential eye openers. After each story, subtitles of his reflections capture the valuable life lesson he wishes to share with you. Suggested actions follow many of the stories which readers can consider if they decide to contribute in healing the divides between us.

We live in angry times. No matter where we go, what we watch, or how we communicate, our culture is rife with division and polarization. Unfortunately, Christians appear to be caught up in the same animosity as the culture at large. While our faith calls us to Christian unity, the hard fact remains: our churches are tragically divided across class, ethnic, gender, and political lines. As these social chasms grow--both inside and outside the church--the role of the preacher becomes paramount. This book issues a prophetic call to pastors to use the influence of their pulpits to promote reconciliation and unity in their churches and communities. Two scholar-practitioners who are experts in homiletics and reconciliation present a practical, 7-step model that empowers faithful leaders to bring healing and peace to their fractured churches and world. The book includes questions for reflection, salient illustrations, and an accountability covenant. It also includes useful appendixes on preaching themes, preaching texts, and sample sermons from three leading preachers: Ralph Douglas West, Rich Villodas, and Sandra Maria Van Opstal.

Planet Earth, 2027 - 2070. The unknown is always met with fear. What will happen after the decision to colonise Mars? How will this decision affect our lives, us Earthlings? A series of questions that both make people think and scare them. Wouldn't it be wiser to leave things as they are? Wouldn't it be better to save the Earth from destruction first and then take such important steps for humanity? A cautious approach might be the best solution. Mankind can develop a programme for as much technology as there is, at a natural and natural pace. The first humans should not set foot on Mars until many years after organised research stations have been set up, run by robots and drones. If Mars is not inhabited, it should be divided between states. Since Mars does not belong to the Martians, it must belong to the Earthlings. That's how humans think. This planet should be divided "fairly". But this is a word that the best negotiators will not know how to appreciate. What can be fair for a few states that want to take all the wealth just because they have the capacity to reach Mars by interplanetary transport ships, alone or in association? The start of any negotiation is hampered by the attempt of some private entities or corporations to corner the discussion and take the lion's share of the negotiation. The policy of small steps is the technique by which they seek to insinuate themselves into a discussion that involves states, not individuals. Will people be able to overcome the deep fear they feel when something new is introduced? Will people be able to find a home for themselves and their families when they get to Mars? Planet Mars, here's a possible history yet to be written.
