'Even mature wetlands will eventually succumb to rising seas if rates of erosion and inundation outpace sedimentation. That is, unless they have somewhere to run.' A fascinating and complicated story, beautifully told with stunning photos. Should be on the cover of Nat'l Geo. Well worth the read!

Now THAT is behavioural science in action! Most people do want to be more environmentally friendly. We need to understand the barriers to action, not just the drivers (hint: it's not always just about money).

Island Press is awesome! Many a Christmas or birthday gift I've purchased from them. Wide variety of topics and really reasonably priced. (I do wish they would bring back their webinars though - some great author interviews.)

Please do this--my (Democratic) congressman's office has not been getting calls on this, so your call can make a difference. This currently bipartisan bill, which is being fast-tracked, would hand Trump a loaded weapon to destroy any nonprofit whose mission he dislikes.
