  Have you ever looked at the effects of climate change and the apathy of so many around you and wondered, "What are we missing here?"
  Climate activist Kyle Meyaard-Schaap understands this feeling from personal experience. But in his years of speaking to and equipping Christians to work for climate action, he's seen the trend begin to shift. More and more young Christians are waking up to the realities of climate change. They want to help, but they're not sure how.
  Through stories from the field, theological and scriptural exploration, and practical advice, Meyaard-Schaap offers hope to Christians paralyzed by the scale of the crisis, helping us turn our paralysis into meaningful action. Following Jesus in a Warming World is a field guide for Christian climate action—one grounded not in a sense of guilt or drudgery, but in the joy of caring for creation.

  A.I. or - Thinking outside the box!  Mind Control is the first Owner's Manual that will help usher in a new species of human being, a species who will respect their home planet and put it first above all other priorities. I call him 'Homo Planetae' or Man of the Planet. Homo Sapiens or the Wise Man is no longer viable since it is this species that has brought us to the edge of extinction and the total destruction of this planet's habitat - something no other creature in history has been so careless and greedy to do. We did that. An evolutionary branching off of an obsolete species and onto a new more advanced creature is now taking place right before our eyes, but 'None are so blind as those who will not see.' 
  Through your increased abilities of using your mind or 'Mind Control' as this author defines it - we still have a chance to redeem ourselves and save this planet. But time is of the essence and is rapidly running fading.  It's only by casting off the mind control by evil forces for the last few billion years that we have a chance to advance our civilization past the next few decades and on into the far distant future.  Failing this adventure, we will surely go extinct in a few years. 
  The ways in which we are mind controlled by our government and our corporations, our religions are profound yet so subtle we don't even think about it until it's too late.  In this book you will find the new rules of our future evolution, some mind control exercises that will make you more in charge of your life and ways to turn us away from our current path towards the precipice, oblivion, the cliff. It's not out of the question, but every day we put off joining the growing list of people who know about Mind Control and the Owner's Manual, the greater are the chances that we may be able to save ourselves. All future generations will thank us - but only if YOU show you are part of us.

  Homewaters - A Human and Natural...

  Not far from Seattle skyscrapers live 150-year-old clams, more than 250 species of fish, and underwater kelp forests as complex as any terrestrial ecosystem. For millennia, vibrant Coast Salish communities have lived beside these waters dense with nutrient-rich foods, with cultures intertwined through exchanges across the waterways. Transformed by settlement and resource extraction, Puget Sound and its future health now depend on a better understanding of the region's ecological complexities. 
   
   
   
  Focusing on the area south of Port Townsend and between the Cascade and Olympic mountains, Williams uncovers human and natural histories in, on, and around the Sound. In conversations with archaeologists, biologists, and tribal authorities, Williams traces how generations of humans have interacted with such species as geoducks, salmon, orcas, rockfish, and herring. He sheds light on how warfare shaped development and how people have moved across this maritime highway, in canoes, the mosquito fleet, and today's ferry system. The book also takes an unflinching look at how the Sound's ecosystems have suffered from human behavior, including pollution, habitat destruction, and the effects of climate change.

  The inspiring story of a feisty pioneering woman who sought freedom and adventure in the outback and became the first woman to work as an opal miner in Australia. 
   
  People always asked her if she was ever afraid, living out in the desert alone with all those rough and scruffy men. But Minnie Berrington was not the faint-hearted type, and never had been. Being tough came naturally to her, growing up with three brothers and a family that went from riches to ruins. 
   
  Only a slip of a girl, Minnie could match any man in stamina, perseverance and strength. She arrived in Coober Pedy when camels still brought in essential supplies, and water was so scarce that no-one washed. Together with the other miners, she braved the heat, the flies and the dust. Every day she waited for that special sound the pick made when it cracked opal. 
   
  The first woman to dig her own shafts in the Australian opal fields, Minnie began her working life as a typist in London. But she and her younger brother, Victor, sought freedom and adventure in the 1920s and found plenty of it in the outback.
