  The future is uncertain. But flourishing doesn’t have to be. We know without a doubt that humans have power to change the earth in lasting ways. Climate change is not a niche issue: it is the unfolding story of our embodied lives. As we join in with the groaning of creation, we wonder how we and coming generations will make our home in a potentially inhospitable future. In the face of environmental and social upheaval, Tending Tomorrow lays out a path for Christians seeking courage and inspiration for the uncertain journey ahead. Drawing on metaphors from the natural world, author Leah Reesor-Keller offers foundational, transformative practices for leaders and communities to foster healthier cultures during a time of ecological devastation. ​ When we dig into the roots of faith and culture, and envision new interactions and patterns, we plant seeds of change. Seeds that ignite courageous imagination. Seeds that repair injustice. Seeds that nurture a tomorrow where possibilities bloom and people and planet flourish.

  Finishing Nature - A History of...

  Behind the headline catastrophes of wildfires and floods lies California’s history of bending nature to human purpose. 
  The immense waters of Tulare Lake were repurposed long ago for irrigation of industrial farms, leaving a dry expanse. But wet years conjure the ghost of the lake, and recent atmospheric rivers have flooded nearly 100,000 acres of rich farmland. The Eaton fire, the Oroville Dam failure, depleted aquifers, land subsidence, megadroughts that bring contaminated wells—all are legacies of California’s attempts to reengineer nature. With global warming, the state’s immense infrastructure, built across centuries to remedy its natural deficiencies and dangers, has itself become a threat. 
   
  Finishing nature was originally a Jeffersonian idea of improvement adopted by a California horticulturists. But with industrial growth, improvement became control as the attempt to reorganize nature exploded in scale and ambition. From a leading historian, Finishing Nature is a story of hubris, Gilded Age corruption, good intentions gone awry, and a California that has become the victim of its own success.

  The island of Britain has over 10,000 miles of coastline, steeped in history and constantly shifting, changing, adapting and providing. The Restless Coast is a moving and beautiful account of a journey around it, during which the author travels its length to discover its challenges and opportunities, and to talk to the people trying to protect it.
  
  
  At once delightful travelogue and passionate defence, The Restless Coast shines a powerful spotlight into the thin line that surrounds us, and defines our status as islanders. Overarching the journey is the extraordinary natural history of the coastline, together with the story of how man has imprinted himself on its very geology and shape for countless centuries. Into the account, Roger Morgan-Grenville threads the modern challenges that the shoreline faces, and the people who are trying to protect it. At once informative, angry and funny, The Restless Coast is a very personal love letter to our island edge.

  BLEED - Destroying Myths and...

  Tracey Lindeman

  Have you ever been told that your pain is imaginary? That feeling better just takes yoga, CBD oil, and the blood of a unicorn on a full moon? That's the reality of the more than 190 million people suffering the excruciating condition known as endometriosis. This disease affecting one in ten cis women and uncounted numbers of others is chronically overlooked, underfunded, and misunderstood—and improperly treated across the medical system. Discrimination and medical gaslighting are rife in endo care, often leaving patients worse off. 
   
   
   
  Journalist Tracey Lindeman knows it all too well. Decades of suffering from endometriosis propelled the creation of BLEED—part memoir, part investigative journalism, and all scathing indictment of how the medical system fails patients. Through extensive interviews and research, BLEED tracks the modern endo experience to the origins of medicine and how the system gained its power by marginalizing women. Using an intersectional lens, BLEED dives into how the system perpetuates misogyny, racism, classism, ageism, transphobia, fatphobia, and other prejudices to this day. 
   
   
   
  BLEED isn't a self-help book. It's an evidence file and an eye-opening, enraging book. It will validate those who have been gaslit, mistreated, or ignored by medicine and spur listeners to fight for nothing short of revolution.
