Download or read book Heartwood written by Rowan Reid and published by . This book was released on 2017-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can cutting down a tree be good for the environment? Why do we assume trees can only be grown for EITHER conservation OR profit, but never both? What if there was a way that landholders could profit from harvesting timber from the trees they plant for stock shelter, biodiversity, soil erosion control and beautification - whilst also helping control climate change? In Heartwood- The art and science of growing trees for conservation and profit, Rowan proposes a radical new approach to forestry and Landcare that challenges the idea that harvesting trees for timber is always bad for the environment. In fact, using real examples from his own farm and others around Australia and overseas, he proves that cutting down trees for firewood, furniture and building timbers can not only be good for the environment, it can also help pay the cost of large-scale landscape restoration. This book offers landholders, governments and the conservation movement a practical commercial solution to their environmental problems. Heartwood will fundamentally change the way people think about the future of forestry and in doing so it will encourage more landholders to grow more trees for the benefit of their land and all that depend on it.

Download or read book Simple Shui for Every Day written by Amanda Gibby Peters and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feng Shui is a practice that prioritizes the energy of our surroundings in specific ways. Under its influence, we attract and hold onto chi that supports our happiness and well-being. Think of it as home improvement-meets-self empowerment! So, what you can expect in the pages ahead? There are 365 prompts. One for every day of the year. However, these aren't specific to the time of year or prescribed in a specific order. All the suggestions are more of a grab-and-go, so have fun! Some are straightforward Feng Shui: do this; don't do that. Some focus on chi (energy) enhancers because all of us deserve an entourage of encouragement. Some spotlight the 5 Chinese Elements - Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water - and how they influence our behavior and feelings. Some are straight up motivational. Not every day will feel like a "shui" day. These will be the connective tissue to keep you in the game while you take a break. Some talk about clutter. Clutter is resistance, which means you need to clear it for the magic of shui to have any sway! And some are dedicated to space clearing - a form of energetic cleaning. These tips are like a greatest hits' compilation, mindfully gathered from all my studies as well as the clients I've been blessed to work with along their journeys. What we experience in life is often reflected energetically in our surroundings. And when we change what's happening around us in a positive way, we reconfigure what happens in our lives as well - one day at a time!
