Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pine Plantations on the Sand-Wastes of France The preparation of this volume for the press was undertaken in consequence of a statement in the Standard and Mail, a Capetown paper, of the 22nd July, 1876, to the effect that in the estimates submitted to Parliament 1,000 had been put down for the Cape Flats, it was supposed with a view to its being employed in carrying out planting operations as a means of reclaiming the saudy tracts beyond Salt River. In view of the success which has followed the planting of the Landes of Gascony and the Gironde with the maritime pine, it might seem that nothing now can be required in order to arrest and utilise drift-sands, but to plant them judiciously with that tree. Rut, happily, I may say, the failure of such plantations on the Landes of La Sologne comes to warn us against auy such rash generalisation. And the observation of sand downs in Britain, and sand plains elsewhere, show that herbs, carices, reeds, and grasses have operated extensively in arresting effectually, and, according to their measures, in utilising what otherwise would have been barren and destructive sand-wastes. Looking at the subject generally, all that I consider established by the pine plantations on the sand-wastes of France is the practicability of arresting and utilising sand-drifts by means of plantations of trees. What has been accomplished there we may legitimately infer may he effected elsewhere, not necessarily by the same means, but by means as appropriate, if they can be discovered. But while this may be all that is established there is much more suggested. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging the conventional wisdom that French environmentalism can be dated only to the post-1945 period, Caroline Ford argues that a broadly shared environmental consciousness emerged in France much earlier. Natural Interests unearths the distinctive features of French environmentalism, in which a large and varied cast of social actors played a role. Besides scientific advances and colonial expansion, nostalgia for a vanishing pastoral countryside and anxiety over the pressing dangers of environmental degradation were important factors in the success of this movement. Over the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, war, political upheaval, and natural disasters—especially the devastating floods of 1856 and 1910 in Paris—caused growing worry over the damage wrought by deforestation, urbanization, and industrialization. The natural world took on new value for France’s urban bourgeoisie, as both a site of aesthetic longing and a destination for tourism. Not only naturalists and scientists but politicians, engineers, writers, and painters took up environmental causes. Imperialism and international dialogue were also instrumental in shaping environmental consciousness, as the unfamiliar climates of France’s overseas possessions changed perceptions of the natural world and influenced conservationist policies. By the early twentieth century, France had adopted innovative environmental legislation, created national and urban parks and nature reserves, and called for international cooperation on environmental questions.
