“12 Steps to Reverse Global Warming” is a very timely and important book that everyone needs to read. There are simple things that we as homeowners and gardeners can do to help reverse the fatalistic trajectory that we are on. Global warming is real and we must face up to it and do something about it. If we don’t, we will continue to face catastrophic problems that will cause pain and suffering, finally leading to the annihilation of life as we know it and the death of earth. Educating ourselves is imperative if we are going to find a solution to this very life threating problem.

I am a horticulturist who grew up at Sprainbrook Nursery, a family business that my parents started in 1944. We had 19 greenhouses, a large Landscape operation and a Garden Center that was voted Best in Westchester County, New York. My father was one of the best growers on the east coast and I studied Horticulture and Landscape design at Cornell University. My whole life has been spent growing plants, answering customers questions, drawing plans and writing formulas and timely tips of what to do and when to do it in the garden.

I was taught the chemical way at Cornell but converted to the organic way when I learned this was the wrong way. In my transformation I took courses in organic growing and educated myself to grow plants the natural way. The way Mother Nature grows her plants. I learned the system of checks and balances that leads to sustainability. I learned a different perspective of life. I learned Nature’s ways and have put them in the pages of this book. I learned by covering our earth with plant material we can make a difference.

Sprainbrook Nursery suffered many hurtles including two huge fires which resulted in us employing creative solutions. This led to a greater understanding of our organic world and the problems our environment is facing. I learned many things from growing my plants the organic way. This book looks at solutions to global warming that each of us as homeowners, gardeners or occupants of this earth can employ.

This is a book that everyone should read. It is important that we need to educate ourselves as to what we as an individual can do. We need to understand the problem and teach others. We need to read this book and work together to create a movement that will reverse the catastrophic trajectory that we are on. You can become part of this movement by carrying this book.

The answer is in the multitude of plants that we can grow that if you follow an organic program will pull Co2 out of the atmosphere. Of the soils that we can supplement that will exhilarate this process. Of the little things that each of us can do that will help. We all need to play an important role.

It is not only important to reduce the amount of contaminates that we put into our atmosphere but it is also important to extract Co2 from the air.

Global Warming is real and we need to do our part to reverse this trend. This is what this book is all about. It is a quick read and a book that everyone should read. Hopefully you will make this part of your book selection.

Thank you
