Did you know that wolves can change the course of rivers? This is just one of the many fascinating revelations in "The Secret Network of Nature" by Peter Wohlleben. This book beautifully illustrates how every element in nature—no matter how small—plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of our ecosystems. From trees to insects to rivers, it's a reminder that our actions, too, have a ripple effect. 🌳💧 This #ClimateActionDay, let’s commit to learning, reflecting, and making choices that protect these delicate networks. 💚 #InternationalClimateActionDay #SecretNetworkofNature #BrownLivingIndia #ClimateAction #BookRecommendations

This week's book feature is 𝘔𝘰𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘦 𝘔𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘯, 𝘯𝘶𝘳 𝘯𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘳 [Peatlands Are like Humans, but Wetter] by Swantje Furtak and Hans Joosten. Most people know not to use peat soil for flower pots and that dry moors are bad for the climate, but why? In their book, Furtak and Joosten dispel myths and answer burning questions like: How do bodies end up in moors? Are there moors in space? Do we have to disappear to protect them? Above all, they show how humans and moors can coexist in harmony. Hans Joosten, a leading expert in peatland science, teams up with journalist Swantje Furtak, a current MA student at the RCC, who brings a freah perspective into the mix. Together, they offer insights neither could have achieved alone. Presently, the book is only published in German. But they are looking for a publishing house that could publish an English version.

#megadrought #wildfire We are now living in something akin to the Medieval Warm Period. The good, we don't have to worry about the Vikings breaking out of their fjords, the bad, the similar increase in wildfire frequency and magnitude have dramatic impacts on communities and ecosystems. https://lnkd.in/ga3kC5GU

It makes me so happy to see CANREADS reviewers and authors connecting over our service! Head to www.canreads.ca to check out our latest review for Dana's new book The Honey Trap: How the Good Intentions of Urban Beekeepers Risk Ecological Disaster. 🐝 📚 #canreads #bookreviews #canadianbookreviews
No matter how much you believe in your book and how much sweat and tears you put into writing it, you never know how it will be received. So, I was thrilled to see this CANREADS review for my latest book, The Honey Trap: How the Good Intentions of Urban Beekeepers Risk Ecological Disaster. "Church masterfully debunks the myths surrounding urban beekeeping...For those passionate about protecting all pollinators, this is the guide you've been waiting for...It’s an essential reading for urban planners, environmentalists, and anyone interested in the truth about bees." Wow. The icing on the cake was the reviewer reached out to me personally to say how impressed they were and how much they enjoyed reading my book. I wrote this book for the bees. All bees. We must rethink our relationship with them and change how we treat them (and "help" them). I hope that the messages in The Honey Trap are spread far and wide, and that people truly take action. Thank you, CANREADS. 🥹🐝💛🖤 Sutherland House Books The Rights Factory https://lnkd.in/eb7swnBB #bees #beekeeping #biodiversity #sciencecommunication #books #nonfiction
