What can we do, right now, in our own landscapes, to help solve climate change?
Predictions about future effects of climate change range from mild to dire - but we're already seeing warmer winters, hotter summers, and more extreme storms. Proposed solutions often seem expensive and complex, and can leave us as individuals at a loss, wondering what, if anything, can be done.
Sue Reed and Ginny Stibolt offer a rallying cry in response - instead of wringing our hands, let's roll up our sleeves. Based on decades of experience, this book is packed with simple, practical steps anyone can take to beautify any landscape or garden, while helping protect the planet and the species that call it home. Topics include:
Working actively to shrink our carbon footprint through mindful landscaping and gardening
Creating cleaner air and water
Increasing physical comfort during hotter seasons
Supporting birds, butterflies, pollinators, and other wildlife.
This book is the ideal tool for homeowners, gardeners, and landscape professionals who want to be part of the solution to climate change.
