A Blue New Deal
An urgent account of the state of our oceans today—and what we must do to protect them The ocean sustains life on our planet, from absorbing carbon to regulating temperatures, and, as we exhaust the resources to be found on land, it is becoming central to the global market. But today we are facing two urgent challenges at sea: massive environmental destruction, and spiraling inequality in the ocean economy. Chris Armstrong reveals how existing governing institutions are failing to respond to the most pressing problems of our time, arguing that we must do better. Armstrong examines these crises—from the fate of people whose lands will be submerged by sea level rise to the exploitation of people working in fishing to the rights of marine animals—and makes the case for a powerful World Ocean Authority capable of tackling them. A Blue New Deal presents a radical manifesto for putting equality, democracy, and sustainability at the heart of ocean politics.
Exceptional People
Exceptional People: Lessons Learned from Special Education Survivors is a unique work that describes disabled (exceptional) students’ and their parents’ perspectives as they journeyed through the education system. For educators, it provides a window to the souls of the children whose lives they affect on a daily basis and offers proven strategies that can be implemented immediately. For students, it describes how they can successfully overcome the embarrassment of their special education label, the humiliation of being bullied by classmates, and the discomfort felt when called “stupid” or “lazy” by their teachers. For parents, it captures their pain when they first learned their child had a disability and the fight they faced as they attempted to advocate for their child (usually not knowing their legal rights, the correct questions to ask, or the organizations available to support them). An easy read with a powerful message, ExceptionalPeople conveys significant insights through its personal stories and professional tips.
The Pinnacle of Heaven and Hell
The reasons for me writing this book are many. One of the main reasons is that too many of my friends have died due to people not paying attention to what they were doing. In the process, my friends died young and never had a chance to live their lives fully. Life isn’t something you should put on the back burner, for life is too precious to miss anything. The hope for my first short story is to stop most, if not all of these accidents from happening so people never have to die out of their on foolishness. The other reason is about the second short story. A lot of my friends including me wanted to give up when life knocked us down. The thing none of us realized at the time was, if we did give up then the darkness finally consumed us and we lost. We didn’t do anything stupid because we had our families and each other to push us through our hard times. My hope for this short story is for everyone to learn is that you should never give up when life is hard. Don’t let it knock you down into oblivion. Get back up and fight off these blankets of darkness that threaten to engulf us. Thank you for reading. God bless.
