Th!nk About it – Climate Change – the Blogger book of advices and polemics

Published 02nd October 2009 - 7 comments - 3981 views -

Hundred books that change our mind, soul, environment, lifestyle, creativity, will, strength and perception. 99 of them are already written. The last is more special.

I believe we write it right now. In this moment, while you read that and breath out. That is why I offer to create the biggest eco book, made by international team ever. We will divide it different subjects, themes, so that everyone can find everything from statistics through laws and fresh eco-ideas. We will write the editorials dedication to the world, to us, to the people after us, because after all we Th!nk About it. We will discuss and create the design and the layout of the cover, pages, and pictures inside. We will use all what we have done for the contest to prove that each one of us is already a winner, when he is the climate human of the day. It will be the first such, one of a kind blogger e-book, which makes it even more bio-friendly then the traditional ones.

No matter of COP15, it is up to us to make the difference, because the time is now. We must not wait for the highest pick to decide what is good for our planet. We must make that choice now and show our responsible attitude.

We build the new green era.

    Wow, I believe our friends from EJC could invite some of the authors for the closing event on December wink Ruth?

  • Benno Hansen on 02nd October 2009:

    I have read at least two of these in university (13 & 20). Some of the others are suspicious, imho. Where did you get this list?

    I’d recommend one other from my shelf: “Applied ecology & environmental management” by E I Newman.

  • Lucy Setian on 02nd October 2009:

    I researched in websites, dedicated to ecology books, maybe some of them are more used by students in ecology and other are more common, like - abstract. So, the list is a mixture of different sets. Which one are suspicious? Maybe I can give more details about them smile

  • Vihar Georgiev on 03rd October 2009:

    Lucy, if you want to make the list even more useful, you can provide links to Google Books for some of the more important titles. Just an example: http://www.google.com/books?id=Lsf1lkYKoHEC&printsec=frontcover&hl=bg&source=gbs_v2_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q=&f=false

  • Lucy Setian on 03rd October 2009:

    Thanks, Vihar, that`s a great suggestion smile

  • Paul Montariol on 17th November 2009:

    Thank you for the references: it is a true library!

  • Lucy Setian on 17th November 2009:

    It is. We all have to learn…a lot!
