Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Green Chain looks at the past, present and future of forestry through interviews with environmentalists, loggers, scientists and others. Raw log exports, environmental devastation, making a living . . . all are discussed in this exploration of the problems facing our forests, and the possible solutions. It's an emotional topic, especially in British Columbia, where Greenpeace and the Raging Grannies were born but where the economy has been fuelled largely by forestry. Both the logging industry and the environmental movement are facing unprecedented challenges, and the world is watching to see how BC and Canada respond. Mark discusses the topic with 22 eloquent, knowledgeable and passionate people, including: ForestEthics and PowerUP Canada founder Tzeporah Berman; activist Severn Cullis-Suzuki; author John Vaillant (The Golden Spruce); former Greenpeace executive and Greenspirit founder Dr. Patrick Moore; poet laureate and former logger George Bowering; Forest Products Association of Canada president and CEO Avrim Lazar; union spokesman Wade Fisher; documentary filmmaker Velcrow Ripper (Fierce Light). The book also includes the screenplay for Leiren-Young's award-winning film The Green Chain.

Download or read book Homeless Across America written by Kevin E. Lake and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-04-29 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Homeless Across America" is the story of a man who went from being a successful stock broker and family man to being a homeless vagabond, traveling around the country and living out of the back of his truck. Lake's journey took him to the homes of some of our greatest Presidents such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Harry Truman. He walked the fields of several decisive battles that occurred on our nation's soil such as the Battle of New Orleans and the fight at the Alamo. He traveled much of the very coarse that the Lewis and Clark expedition had traveled more than two hundred years ago while mapping out our nation. Lake's travels and the experiences they provided for him played a bigger part in his personal life as well. They helped him overcome many of the negative feelings he had about his own personal circumstances by causing him to realize that practically anyone who had ever lived as opposed to simply exist had gone through some sort of turmoil in their past but had made it through to go on to see brighter days.
