Beschreibung

Dry Fields Grow explores the climate resilience inherent in Hopi farming, revealing how ancient agricultural practices offer solutions for modern environmental challenges. The book argues that these time-tested strategies, refined over centuries on the Colorado Plateau, present a sustainable model for arid regions. Intriguingly, Hopi farmers utilize direct seeding and strategic planting depths to maximize yields with minimal water, demonstrating a profound understanding of their environment. The book emphasizes the importance of integrating indigenous knowledge with modern sustainable agriculture.

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with the geographical and historical context of the Hopi people. It then details their dry farming techniques, soil and water conservation methods, and crop diversification strategies, including the cultivation of native crops like corn, beans, and squash. By analyzing firsthand accounts, agricultural studies, and climate data, Dry Fields Grow uniquely connects indigenous agricultural knowledge with contemporary climate resilience strategies, offering valuable insights for environmental science, geography, and sustainable development.

    The world is racing to reinvent how it powers itself — yet every solution carries its own cost. Wind farms rise where wildlands once stretched untouched, lithium mines carve into deserts, and the dream of “clean” energy grows tangled in politics, inequality, and human ambition. 
    In When the Wind Stops, Alex Southwick takes readers behind the headlines of the global energy revolution. From Arctic oil rigs standing silent in thawing seas to the vast solar fields of Morocco and the wind-swept coasts of Denmark, Southwick meets the engineers, visionaries, and communities living through this historic shift. 
    This is not a simple story of progress or failure. It’s a portrait of transition — messy, imperfect, and deeply human. With characteristic clarity and empathy, Southwick explores what it means to change the very systems that built modern civilization, and the moral choices that come with it. 
    When the Wind Stops is a journey into the heart of our energy age — a reflection on power in every sense of the word, and a reminder that even as the wind falters, the will to adapt endures.

    'Unlike me, the Atlantic wild salmon does not have a voice, so it cannot tell the story of why and how it has been driven to the point of extinction.'
    Once, the River Shannon was teeming with wild salmon swimming upstream. But when the enormous hydro-electric station at Ardnacrusha was built in 1929, what began as the Free State's crowning achievement would have a devastating impact on the environment.
    In this evocative and thought-provoking memoir, Patsy Peril recalls a life deeply entwined with Irish wildlife and embedded in the history of modern Ireland. From a childhood spent on the water to a national conservation campaign, Patsy has a lifetime of knowledge to share about the wild Atlantic salmon – and a plan to save it.

    A bold examination of how Paleolithic wisdom could solve our 21st century problems 
     
    Jessica Carew Kraft, an urban wife and mom of two, was firmly rooted in the modern world, complete with a high-powered career in tech and the sneaking suspicion that her lifestyle was preventing her and her family from truly thriving.  
     
    Determined to find a better way, Jessica quit her job and set out to learn about “rewilding” from people who reject the comforts and convenience of civilization by using ancient tools and skills to survive. Along the way, she learned how to turn sticks into fire, stones into axes, and  
    bones into tools for harvesting wild food—and found an entire community walking the path back from our technologyfocused, anxiety-ridden way of life to a simpler, more human experience. 
     
    Weaving deep research and reportage with her own personal journey, Jessica tells the remarkable story of the potential benefits rewilding has for us and our planet and questions what it truly means to be a human in today’s world. Why We Need to Be Wild is a thought-provoking,  
    unforgettable narrative that illuminates how we survived in the past, how we live now, and how each of us can choose to thrive in the years ahead.
