New Landscape Book to Love: Lauded by Louv and Tallamy

December 18, 2011 by Duncan Brine Leave a Comment

  • UPNE – Integrated Landscaping: Lauren Chase-Rowell

    • “A first-rate model for forward thinking landscapers everywhere. It’s time to bring nature back into our lives, and this book shows us how.”—Richard Louv, author, The Nature Principle and Last Child in the Woods

      “From initial design to plant choice to installation, this book will guide you in the creation of a beautiful, functional, and enriching landscape, regardless of the size of your property or budget.”—Douglas W. Tallamy, author, Bringing Nature Home

       

      A new way of thinking about landscaping home grounds and public spaces, Revised and Expanded

       

      Most landscape manuals describe a linear sequence of processes: design, plant selection, installation, and ongoing maintenance. Integrated Landscaping is different. It uses natural ecosystems as models, taking a nonlinear, holistic approach that addresses these processes simultaneously. Integrated Landscaping treats each site as a system of plant and animal communities, considering their interrelationships with each other and their environment.

The Environment as a Moral Issue

December 18, 2011 by Duncan Brine Leave a Comment

  • Exploring Humanity’s Place In the Journey of the Universe by : Yale Environment 360

    • …There’s starting to be a sense now that  there’s a moral issue about degradation of the environment, that there is something here that’s larger than us, something that’s given birth to all life forms and sustains us. And if we degrade that, it’s to the degradation of future generations. So there’s an inter-generational ethic here. And there’s a new emerging ethic of responsibility to people in other parts of the world who are suffering from our actions with things like climate change, which is affecting people along coastal waters.So where is the moral force going to come from for inter-generational ethics or ethical responsibility for people in other parts of the world? It’s going to come from longer-range thinking, and that’s what the religions can contribute.

Cross-pollinated Connecticut Chestnut Comeback

December 12, 2011 by Duncan Brine Leave a Comment

  • Forest management efforts in Connecticut paying off as American chestnut tree makes a comeback | The Republic

  • via Ct Environmental Headlines

    • Scientists have been working on restoration since the 1930s, and in the last several years, American chestnut specialist Sandy Anagnostakis has been breeding blight-resistant trees by crossing the American species with its Chinese cousin, which carries a resistant gene.

       

      Some 200 of those blight-resistant seedlings were planted on 2.5 acres at Belding in 2009, and while mortality is eventually expected to reach 50 percent due to die-off from natural competition, Seymour said the vast majority of the trees are thriving.

    • Eventually, the native trees will reach maturity and begin cross-pollinating with the newly planted blight-resistant strain, creating seedlings genetically similar to trees native to the site that also carry genes resistant to blight.
