Sinossi

Biodiversity Offset Law explores the use of legal frameworks to mitigate biodiversity loss through ecological compensation, such as habitat restoration. It examines how environmental policy mandates developers to offset ecological damage, focusing on legal frameworks, practical implementation challenges, and the ethical dimensions of assigning value to ecological resources. The book highlights how biodiversity offsets aim to achieve "no net loss", a concept where habitat restoration compensates for ecological damage from development. The book delves into the evolution of biodiversity offsets from mitigation banking to a global phenomenon. It critically assesses the effectiveness of legal frameworks in achieving genuine conservation outcomes, emphasizing the need for robust legal design and transparent management. Socially, it raises questions about environmental justice, as the benefits and burdens are often unevenly distributed, and scientifically, the book emphasizes the importance of accurate ecological assessments. The book progresses by introducing biodiversity offsets, examining legal frameworks across jurisdictions, analyzing practical challenges like ecological equivalence, and exploring ethical dimensions like commodification of nature. Ultimately, it offers recommendations for improving offset policies and assessing their effectiveness, arguing that without proper implementation, offsets risk becoming ineffective "paper exercises".

WB Yeats: Selected Poems -...

William Butler Yeats

William Butler Yeats, the first Irishman to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, is not only one of the greatest poets of the twentieth century but one of the most widely read. The landscape, myths, legends, and folklore of his homeland lie at the heart of his poetic imagination, and the unique musicality of Ireland adds to the richness of his verse. But the themes of his poetry are universal and timeless: the conflict between life and death, love and hate, and the meaning of man’s existence in an imperfect world. 
This collection includes such favorites as “The Lake Isle of Innisfree” and “When You Are Old,” as well as two of his longer narrative works, “The Old Age of Queen Maeve” and “Baile and Aillinn.” It traces the poet’s artistry from his early days as a dreamy, late-romantic poet into one of the most individual and visionary voices of twentieth-century verse.

1960s Austin Gangsters -...

Jesse Sublett

Timmy Overton of Austin and Jerry Ray James of Odessa were football stars who traded athletics for lives of crime. The original rebels without causes, nihilists with Cadillacs and Elvis hair, the Overton gang and their associates formed a ragtag white trash mafia that bedazzled Austin law enforcement for most of the 1960s. Tied into a loose network of crooked lawyers, pimps, and used car dealers who became known as the "traveling criminals," they burglarized banks and ran smuggling and prostitution rings all over Texas. Author Jesse Sublett presents a detailed account of these Austin miscreants, who rose to folk hero status despite their violent criminal acts.

Desperate to be Loved - Little...

Kelly Saward

A book of hope, of discovery, of love. 
We all want connection; we all want to feel love. 
In a desperation to find my ideal version of love, or what I thought it ‘should’ look like, I lost myself for a while there. 
I became addicted to anxiety; this was my way out. My safety net! Sounds crazy, but true. After quite a journey I started to understand what I was doing, looking for a perfect love in all the wrong places! Discoveries surfacing through writing and meditation. A new mindful way of living, things started to become a little clearer. My days became a little less fearful and my life a little brighter. My faith and connection with love restored. I share with you in this book, what helped me, the magic of feeling love and understanding, that this won’t or can’t look the same to us all. Showing up everyday and trusting what you know holds so much value. 
Don’t try and change who you are, try and find who you are instead. 
When anxiety became present with my youngest daughter, I knew I needed to find the tools for her and also myself to be able to deal with our anxiety and create a safe space for us both and not let the anxiety rule our daily lives. 
We began doing breathing techniques, including the 4-7-8 breathing method, which is one we really enjoy together, you will find this technique in the book and so much more. I hope you enjoy reading it and if you do, please let me know whet you think. 
There are so many ways to work with me, check out the back of the book or visit my website 'ROOM 478' 
‘When we build habits from love, we find ourselves, when we build habits from fear, we lose ourselves.’ - Kelly Saward
