Tree
|
by David Suzuki & Wayne Grady
This book tells the story of a single tree, from the moment the seed is released from a cone until, more than five hundred years later, the tree lies on the forest floor as a nurse log, giving life to ferns, mosses, and hemlocks even as its own life is ending. Not only does the book chronicle the life of this tree but it also looks at the tree's complex relationships with other organisms, the atmosphere, the underworld of the soil, and the world's oceans. Stunning drawings by Robert Bateman accent the rish text. 190 pgs.

Cradle to Cradle - Remaking the Way We Make Things
|
by Wiliam McDonough & Michael Braungart
A thought-provoking challenge to the cradle-to-grave mindset of conventional manufacturing, this book suggests that products can be designed as 'biological nutrients' to provide nourishment for something new when their useful life is over. Their new motto is 'waste equals food' and the book itself is living proof of this view...the book is not made from paper but, rather, from plastic resins and inorganic fillers...and is therefore fully recyclable. Find out what is possible when you discard conventional thinking and truly open your mind to what makes sense in the very long run. 193 pgs.
