  New Mexico's Spanish legacy has informed the cultural traditions of one of the last states to join the union for more than four hundred years, or before the alluring capital of Santa Fe was founded in 1610. The fame the region gained from artist Georgia O'Keefe, writers Lew Wallace and D. H. Lawrence, and pistolero Billy the Kid has made New Mexico an international tourist destination. But the Spanish annals also have enriched the Land of Enchantment with the factual stories of a superhero knight, the greatest queen in history, a saintly gent whose coffin periodically rises from the depths of the earth and a mysterious ancient map. Join author Ray John de Aragón as he reveals hidden treasure full of suspense and intrigue.

  The Shocking Truth about...

  Zoey Fraisers

  Sustainable living has become one of the most widely discussed topics in modern society. From eco-friendly products and renewable energy to ethical farming and carbon offsetting, the idea of reducing environmental impact has been embraced by individuals, corporations, and governments alike. The push for sustainability is often framed as a moral responsibility—one that promises a better future for the planet and future generations. But beneath the surface of these well-intentioned efforts lies a reality that is far more complex than most people realize.  
    
  This book challenges the widely accepted belief that sustainable living is always beneficial and without trade-offs. While reducing waste, conserving energy, and making mindful consumption choices are undoubtedly valuable, many so-called “green” solutions are not as effective—or as ethical—as they seem. In some cases, the environmental costs of these initiatives may be just as damaging, if not worse, than the problems they aim to solve. The truth is that sustainability has become a multi-billion-dollar industry, driven by marketing strategies that capitalize on people’s desire to do good.  
    
  Consider the rise of organic farming. While it is often marketed as a superior alternative to conventional agriculture, it requires significantly more land to produce the same amount of food, contributing to deforestation and biodiversity loss. Similarly, electric vehicles are widely praised as the key to a cleaner future, yet their production depends on intensive mining for lithium and rare earth metals, which comes with severe environmental and human rights concerns. Even recycling, which many believe to be a simple and effective way to reduce waste, has its own limitations, as much of what is intended for recycling never actually gets repurposed.
