Poetry and science, as Popova writes in her introduction, "are instruments for knowing the world more intimately and loving it more deeply." In 15 short essays on subjects ranging from the mystery of dark matter and the infinity of pi to the resilience of trees and the intelligence of octopuses, Popova tells the stories of scientific searching and discovery. These stories are interwoven with details from the very real and human lives of scientists—many of them women, many underrecognized—and poets inspired by the same questions and the beauty they reveal.

Questo scenario può ancora essere evitato. Attraverso un'analisi dei rischi, delle possibilità che ci restano e un decalogo di attivismo civico, Christiana Figueres e Tom Rivett-Carnac, artefici dell'Accordo di Parigi del 2015, delineano le basi per salvare il pianeta e scegliere così il futuro che ci aspetta.

Illuminating the very human conversation around nuclear for the first time, from the roots of the American environmental movement to the present, Atomic Dreams offers a look at why we fear certain things, how people’s minds can change, and what a grand-scale political reversal looks like up close, even when it feels, so often, like change is impossible.

Greenhouse: Greenhouse gardening offers numerous benefits beyond extending the growing season. It provides a controlled environment that protects plants from pests, diseases, and extreme weather conditions, creating an ideal microclimate for optimal growth. With precise control over temperature, humidity, and light levels, gardeners can cultivate a wide range of plants that might not thrive in their local climate otherwise. Greenhouses also allow for efficient use of space, enabling vertical gardening, hydroponic systems, and other innovative cultivation techniques.
