  Seeing Green offers comedic and straightforward entrepreneurial strategies for getting to net-zero carbon dioxide emissions. Angel Lance, a successful CEO, farmer, and self-described “pro-climate impactor,” provides a playbook for anyone who wants business success and a future on earth. Lance shares tactics―like throwing corporate retreats on her regenerative Oklahoma farm―that simultaneously benefit companies and the environment. With stories of misadventures in rural America that even nonbelievers will find inspiring, Lance busts stereotypes about the typical “environmentalist” and proves that being green doesn’t have to mean deprivation, that sustainability and profitability can go hand-in-hand. Seeing Green empowers people and companies to ride the wave of the ecological economy with productive enthusiasm.

  Combining history, reportage, and nature writing with intimate moments of reflection, Greyhound tells of the journey from miscarriage to parenthood, and the purpose creativity gives to our lives when we feel purposeless 
   
  In 2006, in the wake of several miscarriages, Joanna Pocock traveled by Greyhound bus across the United States from Detroit to Los Angeles. Seventeen years later, she undertakes the same journey, revisiting the cities, edgelands, highways, and motels in the footsteps of the few women writers—Simone de Beauvoir, Ethel Mannin, and Irma Kurtz—who also chronicled their road trips across the United States. Combining memoir, reportage, environmental writing, and literary criticism, Greyhound is a moving and immersive book that captures an America in the throes of late capitalism with all its beauty, horror, and complexity.

Drawing on Christian principles and the memoir of his own life experiences, he teases out the lessons for dealing effectively with an unexpected and deadly fight with an unseen enemy. In this book, he presents eight rules for living victoriously in the shadow of the medical death sentence of a fast-moving cancer.
