The film "Arctic Emergency: Scientists Speak On Melting Ice and Global Impacts" by Max Wilbert features climate scientists discussing the critical state of the Arctic in their own words.

Rising Arctic temperatures are causing sea ice to melt and permafrost to thaw, destabilizing a system vital to global climate, often called "Earth's Air Conditioner." This directly contributes to global warming, impacting weather patterns, natural systems, and human life worldwide, with the Arctic at the center of these profound changes.

Published on August 1, 2014, the film includes insights from leading experts such as Jennifer Francis (Rutgers University), Ron Prinn (MIT), Natalia Shakhova (University of Alaska-Fairbanks), Kevin Schaefer (National Snow and Ice Data Center), and others from prominent research institutions.

Christopher F. Jones's book redefines the fossil fuel revolution, focusing on advances in energy access—via canals, pipelines, and wires—rather than just production. He demonstrates how elaborate transportation networks for coal, oil, and electricity fueled remarkable urban and industrial growth in the American mid-Atlantic between 1820 and 1930, simultaneously setting the nation on a path toward fossil fuel dependence.

This historical account offers valuable lessons for pioneering a more sustainable energy future. To learn more, visit Christopher F. Jones's website or order his book from Amazon.
