Sudden Spring: Stories of Adaptation in a Climate-Changed SouthThe results of climate change make the headlines almost daily. All across America and the globe, communities have to adapt to rising sea levels, intensified storms, and warmer temperatures. One way or another, climate change will be a proving ground.

The results of climate change make the headlines almost daily. All across America and the globe, communities have to adapt to rising sea levels, intensified storms, and warmer temperatures. One way or another, climate change will be a proving ground. We will either sink, in cases where the land is subsiding, or swim, finding ways to address these challenges.

While temperatures and seas are rising slowly, we have some immediate choices to make. If we act quickly and boldly, there is a small window of opportunity to prevent the worst. We can prepare for the changes by understanding what is happening and taking specific measures. There is "commitment" already in the climate change system. To minimize those effects will require another kind of commitment, the kind Rick Van Noy illustrates in these stories about a climate-distressed South.

Like Rachel Carson's groundbreaking work Silent Spring, Rick Van Noy's Sudden Spring is a call to action to mitigate the current trends in our environmental degradation. By highlighting stories of people and places adapting to the impacts of a warmer climate, Van Noy shows us what communities in the South are doing to become more climate resilient and to survive a slow deluge of environmental challenges.

Decent
Color: White, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
They are only used as a backup pillow for my special pillows I use since I have pillows with holes in the middle for my earrings. I also use them for when I lean on my headboard to watch tv. I like them they are squishy. Kind of expensive I feel like but not terrible

I love these pillows
Color: White, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
Very good pillows, comfortable and with that hotel style. They have medium firmness, so they work well for any sleeping position. They feel fresh, of good quality and do not crush easily. Excellent purchase.

Worth it, I have 2
Style: All Season, Size: King
Soft, good material, I like the thickness. Does not feel cheap.You do have to put it in a dryer on really low to fluff it up. Check it after 20 minutes. Pull it out fluff it up and put it back in the dryer. Do not use hot heat. I also put it in a linen duvet.
