Wondering whats different about the Paris climate change negotiations?
2015-12-01 16:07:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Washington Post: This week, tens of thousands of climate activists, negotiators and policy wonks are in Paris to finalize the next phase of international climate policy. Many doubt that an agreement can be reached, or that any plausible agreement will make any meaningful progress on the increasingly real problem of climate change.

07.21: Wondering Who You Are: A Memoir
2015-06-16 23:04:40| Powells Books Events Calendar
In the 23rd year of their marriage, Sonya Lea's husband, Richard, went in for surgery to treat a rare appendix cancer. When he came out, he had no recollection of their life together: how they met, their wedding day, the births of their two children. All of it was gone, along with the rockier parts of their past — her drinking, his anger. Richard could now hardly speak, emote, or create memories from moment to moment. Who he'd been no longer was. Wondering Who You Are (Tin House) braids the story of Sonya and Richard's relationship, those memories that he could no longer conjure, together with his fateful days in the hospital. It follows the couple through his recovery and through a marriage no longer grounded on decades of shared experience. As they build a fresh life together, as Richard develops a new personality, Lea is forced to question her own assumptions, beliefs, and desires, her place in the marriage and her way of being in the world. With radical candor and honesty, Lea's memoir is both a powerful look at perseverance in the face of trauma and a surprising exploration into what lies beyond our fragile identities.

Australia: March heat has forecasters wondering 'who stole autumn'?

Age: Melbourne's March is already deep into record heat territory. With today's 30-plus maximum reached, the city has notched nine such days in a row, breaking the record for heatwave duration of eight days. All four previous events over the past 156 years happened in January or February, and the last one 52 years ago. Where's autumn? Weatherzone senior meteorologist Brett Dutschke said warmer-than-normal ocean temperatures and a southerly shift in the jetstream meant there was little sign of autumn...
