SUMMARY:Nature Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Date: Sunday\, October 5\, 2025 Time: 2:00pm – 3:00pm  Location:  Conference Room   \nNature lovers and science enthusiasts\, we invite you to be part of our Nature Book Club!  In October\, we hit the open road\, figuratively\, as we read Crossings by Ben Goldfarm.   Every two months\, we’ll explore nonfiction books about nature and science\, and compare notes in a friendly\, welcoming discussion. \nOctober's book is Crossings by Ben Goldfarb. \nAbout Crossings:  \nGrand Prize Winner of the 2024 Banff Mountain Book Competition\nWinner of the Rachel Carson Award for Excellence in Environmental Journalism\nFinalist for the NYPL Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism\nFinalist for the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award\nFinalist for the Reading the West Book Award in Nonfiction\nFinalist for the Colorado Book Award \nNamed a Best Book of the Year by the New York Times\, The New Yorker\, Science News\, Smithsonian Magazine\, and Kirkus Reviews \n"A powerhouse of a book…comprehensive and engaging." —David Gessner\, Washington Post \nAn eye-opening account of the global ecological transformations wrought by roads\, from the award-winning author of Eager. \nSome 40 million miles of roadways encircle the earth\, yet we tend to regard them only as infrastructure for human convenience. While roads are so ubiquitous they’re practically invisible to us\, wild animals experience them as entirely alien forces of death and disruption. In Crossings\, environmental journalist Ben Goldfarb travels throughout the United States and around the world to investigate how roads have transformed our planet. A million animals are killed by cars each day in the U.S. alone\, but as the new science of road ecology shows\, the harms of highways extend far beyond roadkill. Creatures from antelope to salmon are losing their ability to migrate in search of food and mates; invasive plants hitch rides in tire treads; road salt contaminates lakes and rivers; and the very noise of traffic chases songbirds from vast swaths of habitat. \nYet road ecologists are also seeking to blunt the destruction through innovative solutions. Goldfarb meets with conservationists building bridges for California’s mountain lions and tunnels for English toads\, engineers deconstructing the labyrinth of logging roads that web national forests\, animal rehabbers caring for Tasmania’s car-orphaned wallabies\, and community organizers working to undo the havoc highways have wreaked upon American cities. \nToday\, as our planet’s road network continues to grow exponentially\, the science of road ecology has become increasingly vital. Written with passion and curiosity\, Crossings is a sweeping\, spirited\, and timely investigation into how humans have altered the natural world—and how we can create a better future for all living beings.
