Tony Hiss, Smithsonian Magazine

> Wilson recently calculated that the only way humanity could stave off a mass extinction crisis, as devastating as the one that killed the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, would be to set aside half the planet as permanently protected areas for the ten million other species. “Half Earth,” in other words, as I began calling it—half for us, half for them. A version of this idea has been in circulation among conservationists for some time.

Taffy Brodesser Akner, New York Times

> As well versed as she is in the mores of feminist discourse, Soloway is embarking on a journey through foreign territory with entirely different rules of engagement, a place where some of the smallest words in our language — pronouns — can cause the greatest offense. The emergence of trans culture into the mainstream has been marked by harmful missteps, many committed by feminists, but Soloway seems at ease, confident that this is a story she has every right to tell.
