"If the 13.8-billion-year history of the universe were compressed into a single year, the whole of recorded human history occupies only the last eleven seconds before midnight."
We have reshaped the planet, harnessed energy on a cosmic scale, and connected eight billion minds in an instant. And yet we face the gravest risks our species has ever encountered. Eleven Seconds Before Midnight is a scientifically grounded, thoughtful, and ultimately hopeful exploration of who we are — and who we must choose to become.
A new science for feeding the world sustainably. Drawing on more than three decades of field research and application, The Living Pond presents a complete rethinking of shrimp farming — from the pond floor up.
