Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an age of unprecedented human impact on the planet, certain countries stand out for their privileged positions and the complexity of their relationships with nature. Today, Canada's environmental record is among the poorest when compared to other wealthy nations, a fact that suggests ambivalence, and the actions of competing interests, which are most often exposed in moments of disorder and disregard for the unexpected consequences of managing the country's seemingly endless bounty. 00The 15 case studies presented here reframe Canada since 1945, and these surprising events are grounded in conversations about cultural myths and the legal environment, changing ideas of natural resources and environmental risk, indigenous engagement with environmentalism and development, and the impacts of the environmentalist movement. 00Co-published by the Canadian Centre for Architecture, ISBN 978-1-927071-44-1 (English edition) and ISBN 978-1-927071-45-8 (French edition).

Everything around me feels random and eclectic, completely at the mercy of the chaos that surrounds us all and it overwhelms me to the point where I have to be alone. And when anyone tries to speak to me of Heaven and Hell or how bad this earth can be rather than simply embracing it and accept it for what it is - A mess of unending perfection we have no control over - this is what I tell them: "We've already been handed Heaven and look at what we've done to it."
Download or read book My Name is Criminal written by Jessica Shubert and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great northern nation of Tersatellus is supposed to be perfect. They have vehicles that drive themselves. They power everything with lightning. They even have a digital Plexus of codes that connect every citizen together via chips implanted in their heads. However, some citizens find this idea sketchy (or they're up to something and don't want to get caught), and they choose to have themselves extracted from this Plexus. From there, the cutouts, as they're called, have approximately two options: die slowly without knowing what to do on their own, or turn against the law. For one cutout in particular, the second option has always served her well. Then the law turns back on her with a special offer meant to correct or eliminate all criminals in her tier of infamy. Out of greed, pride, and dumb curiosity, she can only accept and soon finds herself thrust into unknown territory with a bunch of fellow felons almost as crooked as she is. Sure, Death and other surprises wait around every corner, but to a thief like Rat, that's all a part of the job.

Download or read book The Mafia s Good Wife written by Aflyingwhale and published by Padnovel. This book was released on 2024-07-19 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (AN: Please read The Mafia's Good Girl before this book!) - Book 5 of The Devil's Price Series - “Before we get on with our business, there’s a bit of a paperwork you’d need to sign,” Damon said suddenly. He took out a piece of paper and pushed it towards Violet. “What’s this?” she asked. “A written agreement for the price of our sale,” Damon replied. He said it so calmly and so nonchalantly, like he wasn’t buying a girl’s virginity for one million dollars. Violet swallowed hard and her eyes began to glaze over the words on that paper. The agreement was pretty self-explanatory. It basically stated that she’d agree to this sale of her virginity for the aforementioned price and that their signatures would seal the deal. Damon already signed his part and hers was left blank. Violet looked up to see Damon handing her a pen. She came into this room with the thought of backing out, but after reading the document, Violet had another change of heart. It was one million dollars. This was more money than she could ever see in her lifetime. One night compared to that would be minuscule. One could even argue that it was a bargain. So before she could change her mind again, Violet took the pen from Damon’s hand and signed her name on the dotted line. Right as the clock struck midnight that day, Violet Rose Carvey had just signed a deal with Damon Van Zandt, the devil in the flesh. * Warning: Mature content ahead. Enter at your own risk. *

Download or read book Imagine a Death written by Janice Lee and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of a slow but impending apocalypse, what binds three seemingly divergent lives (a writer, a photographer, an old man), isn’t the commonality of a perceived future death, but the layered and complex fabric of how loss, abuse, trauma, and death have shaped their pasts, and how these pasts continue to haunt their present moments, a moment in which time seems to be running out. The writer, traumatized by the violent death of her mother when she was a child, lives alone with her dog and struggles to finish her book. The photographer, stunted by the death of his grandmother and caretaker, struggles to take a single picture and enters into a complicated relationship with the writer. The old man, facing his past in small doses, spends his time watching television and reorganizing the objects in his apartment to stay distracted from the deterioration around him. A depiction of the cycles of abuse and trauma in a prolonged end-time, Imagine a Death examines the ways in which our pasts envelop us, the ways in which we justify horrible things in the name of survival, all of the horrible and beautiful things we are capable of when we are hurt and broken, and the animal (and plant) companions that ground us.
