They can be fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama or prose. Thematically, they should address in some way one or more of the nine societal benefit areas of GEOSS: agriculture, biodiversity, climate, disasters, ecosystems, energy, health, water, weather; also oceans and sustainability.]]> Have you read a book that would interest other Earthzine readers? We’d like to read your recommendations! They have to be books in print and published (or accessible in digitized format) in English. But they can be fiction or non-fiction, poetry, drama or prose. Thematically, they should address in some way one or more of the nine societal benefit areas of GEOSS: agriculture, biodiversity, climate, disasters, ecosystems, energy, health, water, weather; also oceans and sustainability. Your review should be about 500 words in length, identify title, author, publisher, and publication date. Your review will be published on Earthzine with comments from other readers entered into our blog. Send your reviews to editor@earthzine.org.

This is almost non-stop from every sort of media available, which becomes mind numbing and, in a huge sense, scary.
