August 2021. The Taliban invaded Kabul. The British Government was Missing in Action. The evacuation was disastrous, shambolic and deadly. Pen Farthing refused to abandon his charity’s staff or rescue animals. Operation Ark was born.

Nel volgere di pochi decenni, l’umanità è andata incontro a una rivoluzione nelle sue abitudini ancestrali. Senza che ce ne accorgessimo, la nostra specie, che fino a poco tempo fa viveva immersa nella natura abitando ogni angolo della Terra, ha finito per abitare una parte davvero irrisoria delle terre emerse del pianeta. Cosa è accaduto? Da specie generalista in grado di vivere dovunque, ci siamo trasformati, in poche generazioni, in una specie in grado di vivere in una sola e specifica nicchia ecologica: la città.

Spostarsi con le proprie gambe, senza consumare altro che la propria energia. Assaporare un passo più lento, accorgersi degli alberi, dei negozi, delle persone che incontriamo lungo il tragitto. Arrivare al lavoro svegli e pronti ad affrontare la giornata. Ma anche godersi il silenzio di un sentiero tra i campi, sfogare le emozioni spingendo sui pedali, o sapere che si potrà arrivare direttamente davanti al cinema senza preoccuparsi del parcheggio: sono tante le felicità possibili se si sceglie di vivere una vita a due ruote.

Quando Andrea, in una caldissima mattina d’estate, ha trovato due gattini abbandonati vicino a un cassonetto dell’immondizia, tutto si sarebbe aspettato tranne che di finire a fargli da maggiordomo – anzi, di dovergli persino pagare l’affitto. Ma si sa, in casa i gatti regnano sovrani, e pretendono di essere trattati secondo il loro rango. Eppure, per quanto sui loro diritti e sui nostri doveri i gatti siano chiarissimi, tanti aspetti del loro carattere restano misteriosi anche al più servizievole degli umani. Come imparare a leggere i segnali che ci mandano?

During the real estate crash of the late 2000s, Christopher Brown purchased an empty lot in an industrial section of Austin, Texas. The property—a brownfield site bisected with an abandoned petroleum pipeline and littered with concrete debris and landfill trash—was an unlikely site for a home. Along with his son, Brown had explored similar empty lots around Austin, so-called “ruined” spaces once used for agriculture and industry awaiting their redevelopment as Austin became a 21st century boom town.

Liminal, transformative and increasingly elusive – far from a simple cloud of water droplets, fog is a state of mind. As mist drifted through a copse of trees, turning a familiar place strange and otherworldly, Laura Pashby snapped a photograph and an obsession began. Pashby hunts for fog, walks and swims in it, explores its often pivotal role in literature, mythology and history, as well as its environmental significance. There has been a 50 per cent drop in 'fog events' in the past fifty years, fog is drifting away without us noticing and the ecological impact could be calamitous.

We live in an age when humanity spends 90% of its time indoors, yet the nature around us—especially in America’s cities—has never been more vital. This distancing from nature has sparked crises in mental health, longevity, and hope for the next generation, while also heightening the risks we face from historic floods, heatwaves, and wildfires. Indeed, embracing nature holds untapped potential to strengthen and fortify our cities, suburbs, and towns, providing solutions spanning flood preparation, wildfire management, and promoting longevity.

Born into the Waorani tribe of Ecuador's Amazon rainforest, Nemonte Nenquimo was taught about plant medicines, foraging, oral storytelling, and shamanism by her elders. Age 14, she left the forest for the first time to study with an evangelical missionary group in the city. Eventually, her ancestors began appearing in her dreams, pleading with her to return and embrace her own culture. She listened. Two decades later, Nemonte has emerged as one of the most forceful voices in climate-change activism.

When the birds first called, Susan Fox Rogers was in a slack season of her life. The woods and rivers that enthralled her younger self had lost some of their luster. It was the song of a thrush that reawakened Rogers, sparking a long-held desire to know the birds that accompanied her as she rock climbed and paddled, to know the world around her with greater depth. Energized by her curiosity, she followed the birds as they drew her deeper into her authentic self, and ultimately into love.

When pioneering marine biologist Dr. Ha Nguyen is offered the chance to travel to the remote Con Dao Archipelago to investigate a highly intelligent, dangerous octopus species, she doesn't pause long enough to look at the fine print. DIANIMA—a transnational tech corporation best known for its groundbreaking work in artificial intelligence—has purchased the islands, evacuated their population and sealed the archipelago off from the world so that Nguyen can focus on her research.

With its bright red breast, gray back, and cheerful song, the robin is one of the most easily recognized and cherished birds on the continent. But there is much more to this fascinating species than meets the eye. At first glance, the American Robin (Turdus migratorius) may seem like a relatively simple bird.
