Communicating Climate Change

"Marine biologist James B. McClintock has spent three decades studying the frozen land in order to understand better the world that lies beneath it. . . . Now, as temperatures rise, the fragile ecosystem is under attack. Adelie penguins that have successfully nested on Antarctic islands for several hundred years have been nearly wiped out. King crabs that used to populate the deep seafloor are moving into shallower waters, disturbing the set order of life there. Lost Antarctica is an appeal to understand and appreciate the wondrous place at the bottom of the world that we are on the brink of losing."

"In the tradition of fishing classics,A Naturalist Goes Fishing combines elements of the triumph between fisher and fish, humor and wit, and a passionate concern for the natural environment. James McClintock takes us to some of the most breathtaking waters the world has to offer while capturing the drama and serendipity in the beloved sport of fishing. . . As we take this global journey, we see how sea level rise, erosion, pollution, water acidification, and overfishing each cause damage. "
