Reviews...
'In this 94-page, pocket-sized volume, the author is dealing with matters closer to the ground and investigating choices that we can make'.
4 out of 5 stars, RTÉ Culture

'Aimed at anyone who wants to preserve our world, offering 10 helpful suggestions.' Positive Life magazine

'This is a no-nonsense, no punches pulled ten step guide to living in a way that is viable for the planet. It’s full of interesting bits of information about what kinds of impact different activities have, their history, their place in our culture and how the alternatives work. It’s all very readable and digestible'. Druid Life Blog

'This kind of primer is absolutely essential. We know climate change is a serious issue. We know humans have the biggest impact on the planet. As a society, we understand this. But on an individual level, I think our understanding has that surreal kind of disconnection that means we don’t quite get that it means us. You. Me. Everyone. We all have to change and we all have to change now. Luke’s book is not only a way to reconnect with this truth but guidance on exactly how to do this.' Mabh Savage Blog

Featuring poetry by RTÉ playwright Ann Dalton, Award winning poets Ted Sludds and Adam Dunlea, author Luke Eastwood, Geraldine Moorkens Byrne of Pagan Pages, renowned illustrator Wil Kinghan, Toddy Kennedy, Cait Branigan and Gemma McCabe. Edited by Luke Eastwood.

Some of the contributors such as Ted Sludds, Ann Dalton, Toddy Kennedy and Geraldine Moorkens Byrne were previously published but almost all have gone on to other successful creative projects since this book was launched in 2006.

Tedd Sluds was winner of the Impressions National Poetry Award and the Clogh Writers' Prize. Ann Dalton has written and produced several children's plays for RTÉ radio. Luke Eastwood has had several books and many articles published in Ireland and abroad. Adam Dunlea is now a successful musician, touring the globe with several bands.

Cait Branigan is a successful shamanic practitioner and public speaker.

Within these pages are the works of nine poets, each with their own distinctive style and agendas; but with all of these poets there is a common thread - a love of this land (Ireland) and a way of looking at the world that reaches beyond the mundane.

Reviews...

"Exciting new collection makes an excellent 'homegrown' stocking filler present for poetry lovers everywhere."
Wexford Free Press

"Each featured writer has a unique and fresh approach, yet they are intrinsically linked by their passion and understanding of the natural world and our place among it... Angry, raw, passionate, humble questioning... they are hard hitting modern day observationists confident in their expressions and it is this quality which creates a cutting edge to the book."
