OUR DYING PLANET
“A bold and convincing explication of the forces inexorably leading to an environmental collapse, and sooner than most people think. No one will read Our Dying Planet and remain complacent, but Sale sketches some promising paths out of our dilemma.”
Daniel Simberloff, author of Strangers in Paradise: Impact and management of non-indigenous species in Florida
“Every new generation accepts a more impacted environment as normal. Our Dying Planet, by Peter Sale is a wakeup call for all of us. Even though the title sounds pessimistic, Sale puts a cautiously optimistic spin on how we can address our environmental problems.”
Judi Brouse, in Muskoka Magazine, September 2011
Our Dying Planet is about how and why our planet is dying, but its most important message is that this does not have to happen. We can prevent the catastrophe that is looming, but only if we act, and act soon. A good future is possible for the world and for humanity, but we will have to make the right decisions and take the right actions if we are to get there.
Coral reefs are currently on track to become the first ecosystem actually eliminated from the planet, a potential eradication being caused by us. Human activities are creating enormous changes on this planet which sustains us, and the alarming plight of coral reefs is just one of these.
The decline of reefs is a motif used throughout Our Dying Planet. Peter Sale draws from his own extensive work on coral reefs, and from recent research by other ecologists, to explore the many ways we are changing our planet and to explain why it matters. Weaving his own firsthand field experiences around the world into the narrative, Sale brings ecology alive while giving a solid understanding of the science at work behind today’s pressing environmental issues. He delves into topics as varied as overfishing, deforestation, biodiversity loss, use of fossil fuels, population growth, and climate change while discussing the real consequences of our growing ecological footprint.
Most importantly, this passionately written book emphasizes that a gloom-and-doom scenario is not inevitable, and as Sale explores alternative paths, he considers the ways in which science can help us realize a better future.

He immersed himself in a study of ancient and modern philosophical, theological and metaphysical traditions from throughout the world, seeking an answer to that question

Brings the paranormal beings and places of the Iroquois folklore tradition to life through historic and contemporary accounts of otherworldly encounters
• Recounts stories of shapeshifting witches, giant flying heads, enchanted masks, ethereal lights, talking animals, Little People, spirit-choirs, potent curses, and haunted hills, roads, and battlefields
• Includes accounts of miraculous healings by shamans and medicine people such as Mad Bear and Ted Williams
• Shows how these traditions can help one see the richness of the world and help those who have lost the chants of their own ancestors
With a rich history reaching back more than one thousand years, the six nations of the Iroquois Confederacy--the Mohawk, the Oneida, the Onondaga, the Cayuga, the Seneca, and the Tuscarora--are considered to be the most avid storytellers on earth with a collection of tales so vast it would dwarf those of any other society. Covering nearly the whole of New York State from the Hudson and Mohawk River Valleys westward across the Finger Lakes region to Niagara Falls and Salamanca, this mystical culture’s supernatural tradition is the psychic bedrock of the Northeast, yet their treasury of tales and beliefs is largely unknown and their most powerful sacred sites unrecognized.
Assembling the lore and beliefs of this guarded spiritual legacy, Michael Bastine and Mason Winfield share the stories they have collected of both historic and contemporary encounters with beings and places of Iroquois legend: shapeshifting witches, strange forest creatures, ethereal lights, vampire zombies, cursed areas, dark magicians, talking animals, enchanted masks, and haunted hills, roads, and battlefields as well as accounts of miraculous healings by medicine people such as Mad Bear and Ted Williams. Grounding their tales with a history of the Haundenosaunee, the People of the Long House, the authors show how the supernatural beings, places, and customs of the Iroquois live on in contemporary paranormal experience, still surfacing as startling and sometimes inspiring reports of otherworldly creatures, haunted sites, after-death messages, and mystical visions. Providing a link with America’s oldest spiritual roots, these stories help us more deeply know the nature and super-nature around us as well as offer spiritual insights for those who can no longer hear the chants of their own ancestors.

Author of ten books, including The Party’s Over, Peak Everything, and the soon-to-be-released The End of Growth, Richard Heinberg is widely regarded as one of the world’s most effective communicators of the urgent need to transition away from fossil fuels. With a wry, unflinching approach based on facts and realism, Richard exposes the tenuousness of our current way of life and offers a vision for a truly sustainable future.
Senior Fellow-in-Residence at Post Carbon Institute, Richard is best known as a leading educator on Peak Oil—the point at which we reach maximum global oil production—and the resulting, devastating impact it will have on our economic, food, and transportation systems. But his expertise is far ranging, covering critical issues including the current economic crisis, food and agriculture, community resilience, and global climate change.
Richard’s latest book, The End of Growth: Adapting to Our New Economic Reality makes a compelling argument that the global economy has reached a fateful, fundamental turning point. As energy and food prices escalate and debt levels explode, paths that formerly led to economic expansion now go nowhere. The “recession” will not end in a “recovery,” yet in the coming years we can still thrive—if we maximize happiness rather than the futile pursuit of growth at any cost.
Richard is a much sought-after speaker and has presented in dozens of countries and across the United States. He’s featured in many documentaries, including End of Suburbia and Leonardo DiCaprio’s film 11th Hour. Richard has appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America, Canadian Broadcasting Television, BBC, Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and Al Jazeera, as well as numerous radio programs (national NPR) and print publications (Time magazine).
He lives in northern California with his wife and is an avid violin player.

Hi Guys and Gals, I am so sorry that this has become such a "lonely" place, but the topics seem to be such "downers" and the guests kind of low quality. I hear stuff all day, it would be nice to be entertained and fascinated at night. I seem to be intrenced in enough "fearful" stuff.
Plus the fact we had "Rodeo" here all week, things go "wacko" in my little town for a week. Hopefully, the topics and the place where I live will get back to better things.
