What if Stephen Hawking was right—that humanity has less than 100 years left? Physicist and tech entrepreneur Peter Solomon, Ph.D., believes the clock is ticking. With five existential threats accelerating—AI, climate change, genetic engineering, nuclear risk, and social media manipulation—he’s using science and storytelling to wake us up. His new novel 100 Years to Extinction paints a future we must avoid—and shows how we can still change course.

Elspeth Hay is a writer and food systems thinker who’s inviting us to radically rethink how we grow our food. In her book Feed Us with Trees, she uncovers a forgotten story—one in which humans once thrived by cultivating staple foods like acorns, chestnuts, and hazelnuts in forest gardens rather than plowed fields. Through conversations with Indigenous knowledge-keepers, scientists, nut growers, and food professionals, Hay reveals how these perennial tree crops not only nourish us but also heal the land. Her work is a hopeful, eye-opening look at our ecological role as humans and a compelling call to imagine a more abundant, resilient, and sustainable food future.
