SUMMARY:August/September CFRW Book Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:August/September CFRW Book Club Meeting\n\nSeptember 26 @ 10:30am\n\nJoin us for our August/September 2020 CFRW Book Club Meeting! Storm water fills our creeks and rivers that are often polluted with pesticides\, so this is the perfect time for our this month’s selection\, Pesticides and Pollution by Dr. Mellanby. We’ll have a discussion via Zoom on Saturday\, September 26\, 2020 at 10:30AM. Join us here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9617005052 \n“In Pesticides and Pollution\, Dr. Mellanby examines the problems of pollution of air\, land\, river\, and the sea\, by herbicides\, pesticides\, sewage\, industrial effluents\, gases\, radiation\, leakages\, over-drainage\, mistakes and mismanagement\, in Britain to-day. He sets out to placate neither farmers nor naturalists\, but to explain in each case what is happening\, to point to both dangers and practical necessities\, and to discuss what steps should be taken.” \nDr. Mellanby was the Director of the Nature Conservancy’s Monk Wood Experimental Station and was the head of the Entomology department at Rothamsted in the UK. Rothamsted Research\, known as Rothamsted Experimental Station and then the Institute of Arable Crops Research is one of the oldest agricultural research institutions in the world. For many years\, Dr. Mellanby did medical entomology research in Britain and the tropics. He also started the journal Environmental Pollution in 1970 which led to the honorable  ” Mellanby Review Award”  that is biennially awarded to distinguished scientists. \nCopies of Pesticides and Pollution by Kenneth Mellanby are “out of print” and will not be available to purchase at Pomegranate Books. You can purchase the e-book version from Barnes & Noble\, Kobo or Amazon\, or purchase a used copy online.

Smith\n \n \n“Rivers\, more than any road\, technology\, or political leader\, have shaped the course of human civilization. They have opened frontiers\, founded cities\, settled borders\, and fed billions. They promote life\, forge peace\, grant power\, and can capriciously destroy everything in their path. Even today\, rivers remain a powerful global force — one that is more critical than ever to our future. In Rivers of Power\, geographer Laurence C. Smith explores the timeless yet underappreciated relationship between rivers and civilization as we know it. Rivers are of course important in many practical ways (water supply\, transportation\, sanitation\, etc). But the full breadth of their influence on the way we live is less obvious. Rivers define and transcend international borders\, forcing cooperation between nations. Huge volumes of river water are used to produce energy\, raw commodities\, and food. Wars\, politics\, and demography are transformed by their devastating floods. The territorial claims of nations\, their cultural and economic ties to each other\, and the migrations and histories of their peoples trace back to rivers\, river valleys\, and the topographic divides they carve upon the world. And as climate change\, technology\, and cities transform our relationship with nature\, new opportunities are arising to protect the waters that sustain us. Beautifully told and expansive in scope\, Rivers of Power reveals how and why rivers have so profoundly influenced our civilization and examines the importance this vast\, arterial power holds for the future of humanity.”
