In \u003ci\u003eFinding Higher Ground, \u003c\/i\u003e Amy Seidl takes the uniquely positive--yet realistic--position that humans and animals can adapt and persist despite these changes. Drawing on an emerging body of scientific research, Seidl brings us stories of adaptation from the natural world and from human communities. She offers examples of how plants, insects, birds, and mammals are already adapting both behaviorally and genetically. While some species will be unable to adapt to new conditions quickly enough to survive, Seidl argues that those that do can show us how to increase our own capacity for resilience if we work to change our collective behavior. In looking at climate change as an opportunity to establish new cultural norms, Seidl inspires readers to move beyond loss and offers a refreshing call to evolve.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amy Seidl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807084999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807084991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Beacon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.30w x 0.50d","brand":"Amy Seidl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44071090716927,"sku":"9780807084991","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ed5fa65-6fbb-4d33-b324-250d0baa5fd3.jpg?v=1685434098","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/finding-higher-ground-amy-seidl-9780807084991","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
