When The Rivers Run Dry: What Happens When Our Water Runs Out?
When The Rivers Run Dry: What
Happens When Our Water Runs
Out?
    The world is running out
    of water. Some of our
    largest rivers now
    trickle into sand miles
    from the ocean,
    exhausted by human need.
    Water is 'the new oil' -
    except we can live
    without oil; there are no
    alternatives to fresh
    water.

    Fred Pearce
    explores the complex
    origins of the growing
    world water crisis. His
    vivid reportage reveals
    the personal stories
    behind failing rivers,
    barren fields,
    desertification, floods,
    water wars, and even
    the death of cultures.


    Is there hope?
    Yes - but only if we
    revolutionize the way we
    treat water. This
    phenomenally important
    book shows us just how
    essential it is that each
    of us takes
    responsibility for the
    water we use now - before
    all our rivers run
    dry.

    When
    the Rivers Run Dry
    by Fred
    Pearce has
    been selected as one of
    the Top 50

    for by the University of

Rubbish!: Dirt On Our Hands And Crisis Ahead
Rubbish!: Dirt On Our Hands
And Crisis Ahead
    We can no longer cope
    with our waste. Every
    hour in the UK we throw
    away enough rubbish to
    fill the Albert hall - a
    statistic"ed so
    often that perhaps we've
    stopped imagining what it
    means. And every year the
    flow accelerates.
    This
    is the story of our
    rubbish - from the first
    human bowel movement to
    the littering of outer
    space. With a hankerchief
    to his nose, Girling
    picks through our fridge
    mountain, our crumbling
    sewers, trading waste,
    packaging waste,
    hazardous industrial
    waste... it is a mucky
    saga of carelessness,
    greed and opportunism,
    wasted opportunity and
    official bungling. But
    Rubbish! is also a
    plea for us to consider
    other kinds of waste: the
    trashing of our
    landscape, the
    unstoppable floods of
    junk that clog our
    mailboxes, litter the
    skies and foul the
    airwaves...
    Rubbish!
    may not be a conventional
    battle cry but this is
    unmistakably a call to
    arms - not just for the
    three 'R's - reduce,
    re-use, recycle - but
    for us to fight for new
    ideas, brave initiative
    rather than reliance on
    old systems that are
    crumbling before our
    eyes.

Tall Trees and Small Woods: How to Grow and Tend Them
Tall Trees And Small Woods:
How To Grow And Tend Them
    This is a book for anyone
    who would like to do more
    with trees and woodland,
    for their conservation or
    for timber production,
    but who needs guidance on
    how to get started. It
    does not deal with
    large-scale forestry;
    instead, the author is
    concerned with new
    opportunities for farm
    woods and community
    woodlands.

A Life Stripped Bare: My Year Trying To Live Ethically
A Life Stripped Bare: My Year
Trying To Live Ethically
    How often in life does
    convenience triumph over
    'doing the right thing?
    And what is 'ethical
    living' anyway? When it
    comes down to it, most
    people fight shy of
    giving up their cars, or
    their toxic household
    products, their cheap
    washing machines, or
    dodgy, unethical bank
    accounts in order to make
    the world a better place.
    So Leo Hickman, resident
    consumer expert of the
    Guardian, decided to
    give it a try. Over the
    course of a year, he and
    his family set out to
    discover whether it was
    possible to live a
    'normal life' - job,
    mortgage, kids,
    holidays - while at the
    same time making each
    daily choice or decision
    an 'ethical' one - for
    the family, their
    neighbours and the
    environment. This the
    story of that year, is a
    record of an
    extraordinary
    transformation. Amid the
    pitfalls and confusion,
    Leo's account is funny,
    inspirational and a mine
    of information for the
    curious.

A Life Stripped Bare: Tiptoeing Through The Ethical Minefield
A Life Stripped Bare:
Tiptoeing Through The Ethical
Minefield
    It is hardly news that a
    growing number of people
    want to step back from
    the brink of western
    consumerism and find a
    way to live an all-round
    cleaner existence - one
    that is not only easier
    on the physical body but
    one that is lighter on
    the conscience too. So
    how do we go about it?
    Most people fight shy of
    giving up their cars, or
    their toxic household
    products, their cheap
    washing machines, or
    dodgy, unethical bank
    accounts in order to make
    the world a better place
    but Leo Hickman,
    resident consumer expert
    of the Guardian,
    reckoned he should give
    it a try and report back
    on whether it is possible
    to live a life that is
    western but aware.

    Leo's fumbling but hugely
    well-intentioned and
    increasingly successful
    efforts to do the right
    thing can't fail to
    involve, educate,
    inspire - and amuse - his
    readers.
