The pandemic of 2020-2022 killed millions of people the world over. It shut down countries and economies. It caused tremendous anxiety. People want to know who or what caused the pandemic. Officials, however, failed to explain the origins of this global disease. This book shows how one of the sources of the pandemic originated in pesticide-based factory agriculture and animal farms, and how climate chaos exacerbated the pandemic. Earth on Fire reveals and explains the cosmic tragedy of brewing pandemics and climate chaos in our backyards. Drawing from the author's Greek and American experience, the work presents how agriculture and civilization are vastly intertwined.This book would benefit scholars, policy makers, students and all readers interested in unravelling the Gordian knot of animal farms, pandemics, and climate chaos.

Earth On Fire: Brewing Plagues And Climate Chaos In Our Backyards

For millennia, elms shaped our landscape and our folklore; then they started dying.

Fifty years ago, a deadly pandemic raged across the world, destroying all in its path and outmanoeuvring scientists' desperate attempts to halt it. Dutch elm disease destroyed 25 million trees in the UK alone, altering our landscape forever. Few people now living have seen a mature elm tree, yet they once covered great swathes of Europe and North America and their legacy lives on in our mythology and folklore. The Lost Elms is a love letter to our vanished elms - the story of how we nearly lost an entire species, and the long, slow fight back. It tells the gripping story of the scientists desperately trying to halt the disease's relentless progress, and demonstrates the deadly globalisation can have on the environment, the importance of biosecurity and the intricate ways in which trees are interlinked with other species. Woven throughout is a lyrical look at the elm's central place in our history, culture and folklore - the elm features heavily in Greek, Celtic, Japanese, Germanic and Scandinavian mythology; as the 'Liberty Tree' it played a symbolic role in both the American and French Revolutions; and since ancient times the elm has held associations with death and the supernatural. However all is not lost: recent breakthroughs means some scientists now believe the elm is poised to make a comeback. This tree holds an important place in our history, and now might just offer the lesson for how we can save other disappearing species and our environment.

A Love Letter to Our Vanished Trees – and the Fight to Save Them

The Lost Elms

A Jamaican memoir of plants and dreams

The Possibility of Tenderness

Piet Mondrian’s chrysanthemums, Faith Ringgold's sunflowers, Georgia O'Keefe's black iris, Salvador Dalí's narcissus, Yayoi Kusama's pumpkin …these are just a few of the many exemplary pairings that can offer a unique, artistic interpretation&nbsp;of a plant’s essence. Beautifully designed and visually captivating,&nbsp;Flora is arranged thematically by the trees, flowers, fruit, vegetables, spices, grasses, grains, and vines which have served as a root for artistic inquiry across time.&nbsp;Brief, informative profiles&nbsp;of each plant are woven together with key works of art, mythology, and other ancient and contemporary sources, bringing&nbsp;each plant into more focus through its interpretations across time.&nbsp;Readers wishing to find information about specific plants can consult a detailed plant index, or they can read the book cover to cover, luxuriating over each page, providing a space to turn whenever we need a reminder of the connection&nbsp;between our natural world and the creative spirit. Botanists will deepen their understanding of plants through the lens of artistic expression, and artists will find much to learn about their natural subjects, bringing a new context to an ever-enduring love of plants.&nbsp;
