Junk raft : an ocean voyage and a rising tide of activism to fight plastic pollution / by Eriksen, Marcus,1967-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."An exciting account of an activist scientist's unorthodox fight in the growing movement against plastic marine pollution and of his expedition across the Pacific on a home-made "junk raft" Over the past several years, the news media has brought the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch"--the famous swirling gyre of plastic litter in the ocean--into the public consciousness. When Marcus Eriksen cofounded the 5 Gyres Institute with his wife, Anna, and set out to study marine pollution, they found that the reality is even more dire: instead of a stable mass of litter, they discovered that a "plastic smog" of microparticles permeates the world's oceans, defying simplistic clean-up efforts. What's more, these microplastics and their toxic chemistry have seeped into the food chain, threatening marine life and humans alike. Far from being a gloomy treatise on an environmental catastrophe, though, Junk Raft tells the exciting story of Eriksen's fight to raise awareness and solve the problem of plastic pollution, contributing to a fast-growing movement to stem the tide of trash. Eriksen writes of his voyage from Los Angeles to Hawaii aboard his homemade "junk raft," and along the way he recounts the successful efforts to fight corporate influence and demand that plastics producers take responsibility for a problem they've created. Eriksen provides concrete, actionable solutions and an empowering message: it's up to bold, brash, unapologetically activist "citizen scientists" to challenge the status quo for the sake of the planet"--

How does that make you feel, Magda Eklund? : a novel / by Montague, Anna,author.;
"For fans of Less comes a wry, moving novel about love, loss, and new beginnings found on an unlikely road trip. Most days, Magda is fine. She has her anxious therapy patients, who depend on her to cure their bad habits, and her longtime colleagues Boomer and Theo, whose playful bickering she mediates. She successfully avoids all discussion of her upcoming 70th birthday and has even brokered a tentative truce with her late best friend Sara's widower, Fred. Magda has her routines. She has other people's lives to fix. She's fine. But when Fred gifts her Sara's journal, she discovers plans for the road trip they always meant to take scribbled inside. And when Fred foists Sara's urn on Magda for the summer, there seems no choice but to go, lugging Sara along for the ride. Magda just wants closure, but the trip has the potential to shake up her careful routines, and the longing she locked away years ago. Because sometimes getting away from it all makes us confront the things we refuse to face. A hilarious and touching meditation on loss, aging, and the boundless power of female friendship, HOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL, MAGDA EKLUND? shows how love endures past death, and how it's never too late to start your next journey"--

The Icarus plot / by Zahn, Timothy,author.;
"There wasn't much money to be made as a Trailblazer, searching out new worlds for possible development. Still, it was safer than the bounty hunter career that had cost Gregory Roarke his left arm six years ago. And thanks to his Kadolian partner Selene's ultrasensitive sense of smell, they occasionally discovered a medically promising seed or spore they could sell under the table. It was a quiet life, uneventful and mostly legal. Until Roarke was approached by two men with a proposal: track down a mysterious woman named Tera and, through her, locate a secret project called Icarus. The challenge was intriguing. The unlimited budget was tempting. But Roarke had a more personal reason to accept the job. The chance for long-delayed payback"--
