Download or read book Kind A SLOw In the Kootenays written by RickthePoetWarrior and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2020 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nestled in the heart of the Kootenay Mountains range of the Canadian Rockies lies the unique little village of Kaslo. Avoided by the First Nations as a cursed place the early European invaders paid no heed and settled in. How the aboriginals knew of the radioactive nature of the soil is still unknown to 'White Man' but this book isn't about that. It's about the quirkiness of quaint attitudes, perhaps caused by the altitude or just the high airs many of the residents feel entitled to. Still, it is one heck of a tourist destination, deserving of this glowing praised penned in light-hearted fondness.

Book excerpt: The citizens of Canada enjoy a high standard of living, well most of the 'proper' ones do. And for the majority they're granted social supports, political freedoms, and economic opportunities beyond the dreams of billions of earthlings. And yet despite an abundance of resources, both natural and human, our political systems suffer the same fault as all closed power systems, corruption and 'systematic' cruelty (another dodge of personal responsibility). Anyways, this Canadian poet got tired of it and wrote some verse for you to become 'awoke' eh!

Download or read book Grocery Story written by Jon Steinman and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hungry for change? Put the power of food co-ops on your plate and grow your local food economy. Food has become ground-zero in our efforts to increase awareness of how our choices impact the world. Yet while we have begun to transform our communities and dinner plates, the most authoritative strand of the food web has received surprisingly little attention: the grocery store—the epicenter of our food-gathering ritual. Through penetrating analysis and inspiring stories and examples of American and Canadian food co-ops, Grocery Story makes a compelling case for the transformation of the grocery store aisles as the emerging frontier in the local and good food movements. Author Jon Steinman: Deconstructs the food retail sector and the shadows cast by corporate giants Makes the case for food co-ops as an alternative Shows how co-ops spur the creation of local food-based economies and enhance low-income food access. Grocery Story is for everyone who eats. Whether you strive to eat more local and sustainable food, or are in support of community economic development, Grocery Story will leave you hungry to join the food co-op movement in your own community.
Download or read book The Singer of the Kootenay written by Robert Edward Knowles and published by New York, F. H. Revell. This book was released on 1911 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The response to the Deepwater Horizon spill continues to the present. As of July 15, 2010 - the day the well stopped flowing - the response involved approximately 44,000 responders; more than 6,870 vessels (including skimmers, tugs, barges, and recovery vessels); approximately 4.12 million feet of boom; 17,500 National Guard troops from Gulf Coast states; five states; multiple corporations; and untold hours of work by federal, state, and local officials; employees or contractors of BP; and private citizens.1 The spill response is governed by the National Contingency Plan (NCP), a set of federal regulations that prescribe how the government will respond to oil spills. In some respects, the response effectively implemented the provisions of the plan and helped to mitigate the most serious negative impacts of the spill. In other respects, the plan was inadequate to handle the scale of the spill - its magnitude, duration, and effects on many stakeholders. This working paper describes the structure of the spill response and the roles of various government and private actors within that structure. The paper identifies situations in which responders altered, or operated outside of, the National Contingency Plan structure and suggests possible recommendations for improvement of that structure in the future"--Page 1.
