Books that have inspired me
Silent Spring, Rachel Carson, a pillar of modern environmental movement written in 1962. The book was responsible for raising awareness of the dangers of pesticides and led to the banning of DDT.
Beyond the war on invasive species / a great book providing a view of invasive species that argues for understanding why invasive species proliferate, seeking out the underlying cause and using regeneration techniques as opposed to eradication.
