Summary:
From trips to the market to lighting entire cities, power is pivotal to the simplest of everyday necessities. Wars are fought over it, the planet is polluted by it, but now its price has become too high. Are we capable of shifting to cleaner, safer, more reliable sources of energy? Fueling the Future gathers the best and brightest minds in the field — thinkers like Jeremy Rifkin, L. Hunter Lovins, and Allison MacFarlane — and uses their collective wisdom to tackle this pressing question from several angles. The experts predict what a world without oil, which is estimated to run out in 50 years, would be like. What new energy alternatives are available? The use of hydrogen and fuel cells is examined, with surprising conclusions. Fresh, efficient prose makes the experts' controversial answers readable and engaging, as well as thought provoking.

Les transformations des systèmes de production, de transport et de distribution de l’énergie vers des modes d’organisation et de fonctionnement plus durables sont l’une des grandes évolutions structurelles du début de ce siècle. Catalyseur de cette dynamique, la notion de '?transition énergétique' suscite de nombreux débats sur la pluralité de ses acceptions et interpelle de plus en plus le monde de la recherche. Le présent ouvrage aborde ces divergences et interroge les dynamiques de changement à l’œuvre dans les pratiques de production énergétique en présentant des cas d’étude inscrits dans des contextes sociopolitiques, économiques, culturels et techniques variés et faisant état de processus de transitions énergétiques diversifiés (bourse des émissions de carbone, développement éolien, grands barrages ou encore stratégie énergétique régionale).

Price:

(available to order)
Summary:
Indigenous activism in the Americas has long focused on the symbolic reclamation of land. Drawing on interdisciplinary perspectives, contributors to this issue explore narratives of territory and origin that provide a foundation for this political practice. The contributors study Indigenous-language stories from displaced communities, analyzing the meaning and power of these narratives in the context of diaspora and the struggle for land. Essays address topics including territorial struggle and environmentalism, Indigenous resistance to neoliberal policies of land dispossession, and alliances between academic and Indigenous knowledges and activisms. This issue brings together fruitful comparisons of theoretical frameworks and case studies in Indigenous studies across North and South America. Its contributors advance the process of returning to Indigenous knowledge, offering essential alternatives to Western epistemologies.

Kirkpatrick Sale offre ici une introduction magistrale au biorégionalisme – ce mode d’organisation alternatif de la société, à des échelles de territoires écologiquement salubres, avec des communautés attentives aux individus et des systèmes économiques renouvelables.

Cet ouvrage invite au développement réaliste de ces communautés biorégionales et des lieux où elles sont établies, afin de mettre en place une société propre à l’épanouissement social et écologique.

Summary:
We’re alive in a time of worst-case scenarios: The weather has gone uncanny. Old postwar alliances are crumbling. A pandemic draws our global community to a halt. Everywhere you look there’s an omen, a joke whose punchline is the end of the world. How is a person supposed to live in the shadow of such a grim future? What does it mean to have children—nothing if not an act of hope—in such unsettled times? What might it be like to live through the worst? And what on Earth is anybody doing about it? Dublin-based writer Mark O’Connell is consumed by these questions—and, as the father of two young children himself, he finds them increasingly urgent. In 'Notes from an Apocalypse', he crosses the globe in pursuit of answers. He tours survival bunkers in South Dakota. He ventures to New Zealand, a favored retreat of billionaires banking on civilization’s collapse. He engages with would-be Mars colonists, preppers, right-wing conspiracists. And he bears witness to those places, like Chernobyl, that the future has already visited—real-life portraits of the end of the world as we know it. In doing so, he comes to a resolution, while offering readers a unique window into our contemporary imagination.
