(A brief proud Papa diversion here: she belongs to her school's Earth Patrol which might not sound impressive until you realize it's only for 4th graders and she's in 1st. I can't wait to see the group shot in the yearbook. They had to order a special small T-shirt for her! She'll be the only first grader on their field trip to the recycling center next week! She's awesome!)
So instead of that, here are some Earth-friendly books I noticed as I was just scanning my TBR (to be read) pile:
Earth: An Intimate History - Richard Fortey
Endless Forms Most Beautiful - Sean B. Carroll
The Future of Life - Edward O. Wilson
Suburban Safari: A Year On the Lawn - Hannah Holmes
I'm also interested in the amazing looking The Atlas of Global Conservation recently released by The Nature Conservancy. Great maps and information for a geek like me!
The Conservancy also has a great Earth Day site. Do check it out.
Oh, and be sure to catch Oceans this weekend!
5 others added their two bits.:
That's a lot of great reading for Earth Day! I guess everyone loves The Lorax - it's one of my favorites, too.
Thanks for the tips on some great Earth Day reads!
I do my litle bits the way I can!
BTT: Earth Day
Harper and her recycling cart is a cool sight. I know someone who has the original photo if you would like it. (wink, wink)
My kids are in charge of the household recycling. My BTT is here.
