"Pithy, funny, exasperated, and informed…You cannot read a more important hundred pages than Stop Saving the Planet!" —Richard White, author of The Republic for Which It Stands We’ve been "saving the planet" for decades!…And environmental crises just get worse. All this hybrid driving and LEED building and carbon trading seems to accomplish little to nothing—and low-income communities continue to suffer the worst consequences. Why aren’t we cleaning up the toxic messes and rolling back climate change? And why do so many Americans hate environmentalists? Jenny Price says Enough already! with this short, fun, fierce manifesto for an environmentalism that is hugely more effective, a whole lot fairer, and infinitely less righteous. She challenges you, corporate sustainability officers, and the EPA to think and act completely anew—and to start right now—to ensure a truly habitable future.

Serving God, Saving the Planet is a study that will broaden the conversation with a focus on the dangers of materialism, workaholism, and spiritual bankruptcy—as well as God’s endless invitations for us to enjoy what he has created. This twelve-session study provides simple, everyday ways to focus on stewardship and sustainability according to Scripture. In the first six sessions, Dr. Matthew Sleeth explores his personal salvation experience and desire to follow Jesus in the context of the love story God tells in Genesis. Dr. Sleeth guides readers through each of the created elements, reminding them of the God-given commission to “tend and protect the planet.” In the final six sessions, Dr. Sleeth examines how God's original command to “tend and protect the planet” extends into the actions and activities of every Christian’s everyday lives. Designed for use with the video.

A post-coronavirus evolution-based how-to for putting living ahead of work. Bestselling author Frank Schaeffer offers a passionate political, social, and lifestyle “blueprint” for changes millions of us know are needed to rebalance our work lives with thriving relationships: Fall in Love, Have Children, Stay Put, Save the Planet, Be Happy. Even before everything was disrupted by COVID-19 (not to mention by Trump), millions of Americans were already questioning capitalism’s “values.” We were already challenging the idea that your job defines you. We already knew something was wrong. Loneliness, frustration, and alienation were already on the rise. Even the most successful of us felt too busy, too preoccupied, and too distracted to enjoy what we intuitively know are life’s greatest rewards: vibrant relationships, family life, connection to others, involvement in our community, and the thrilling experience of love. Fall in Love . . . builds a well-researched and entertaining bridge to living happier lives and to a better future. It shows us that based on a better understanding of our evolutionary selves, we can thrive in family life and in our work life, too. But to do both joyfully—and at the same time—depends on rediscovering the priority of relationships, connections, community, and love.

Using a cross-disciplinary, science- and economics-based approach, this book provides a sobering and comprehensive assessment of the multifaceted barriers to achieving sustainability at a global level. Organized into three parts, the book defines sustainability in part I and sets the context of the historical and current difficulties facing the world today. In parts II and III, it outlines the sustainability challenges faced in transportation, manufacturing, and agriculture, and then in turn addresses the solutions, conditional solutions, and nonsolutions to these challenges. These include electric and autonomous automobiles, nuclear power, renewable energy, geoengineering, and carbon capture and storage. The author attempts to differentiate among those proposed solutions and discusses which are most promising and which are infeasible, counterproductive, and potentially a waste of time and money. In each of the book’s chapters, the scientific evidence is presented in detail, in keeping with the advice of the young Swedish climate activist, Greta Thunberg, to let the science speak for itself. The author outlines why sustainability is unlikely to be achieved in several key areas of human endeavor and readers are challenged to weigh the scientific evidence for themselves. Using an economic business-based approach, this book introduces students and general readers to the challenges of sustainability and the environmental difficulties facing humanity today.

" When a planet of intelligent beings is discovered on the verge of self-destruction as each island nation fears the others are plotting its downfall, a distant space faring culture sends a group of specialists. Their mission is to understand the planet’s cultures enough to determine whether they are worth saving and, if they are, to prevent their self-destruction. However, they have to do it in such a way that none of the planet’s inhabitants know they are being observed, much less potentially being manipulated. Some of the mission members want to sweep in on the natives with missionary fervor to enlighten them to the glories of their obviously superior culture while other mission members want to understand the planet’s inhabitants and what they might offer to enhance the diversity of intelligent beings in the galaxy. More than just following the guidelines issued to the mission, the Mission Director finds that he has to balance the differing viewpoints and encourage the experts and rookies as well as the traditionalists and the innovators to somehow all work together in order to come up with a solution which will work for the inhabitants of the planet they are studying. While the specialists continue their work, the Mission Director takes a side trip to visit a planet where he had previously been assigned and the rookie pilot who accompanies him has several surprises which encourages him and, in some ways, forces him to think outside of his training as well as to set aside his missionary zeal to acquire honor for himself. The Mission Director has his own surprises when he lands to meet with the on-planet agents and ends up in an unexpected first contact situation. After the Mission Director returns to the planet of island nations with the rookie pilot and is updated on the current status, he encourages the mission members to consider any ideas of how they can help the inhabitants to avoid self-destruction. Or maybe the mission should find a way to help them self-destruct in a way that can’t be blamed on the mission. That suggestion shocks some of the mission members, but it encourages them to think outside of the status quo or previously tried solutions. As one idea after another doesn’t pan out or outright fails, two of the scientists from different disciplines try to combine some of their research and are surprised when it shows some promise. Before they can test the possible solution on the inhabitants, they have to have a better understanding of how the individual inhabitants think which requires a totally different approach. Unexpectedly, that is provided when it’s revealed that the rookie pilot has an unexpected talent which the mission is able to make use of with surprising success. Following some very limited testing, it’s decided to offer the solution as a new product to the inhabitants on a voluntary basis without revealing the source of the product. The majority of the inhabitants who try the new product find that it improves their lives, but there are some people who have a negative reaction, at least in their opinion. After an extended time of watching the inhabitants get close to mutual self-destruction then slightly back off, the mission members now have to sit and wait to see whether the new product will encourage the inhabitants to move away from or towards self-destruction.
