Reclaiming Eden
Responsible Living, Engineering, and Architectures
About this book
Life on Earth is both challenging and beautiful. Reclaiming Eden is about responsible living, engineering and architectures, aiming to mitigate environmental deterioration by reclaiming land around the world to an ecologically sustainable stage. These endeavors will enable us to pass forward a beautiful tomorrow for our grandchildren in the long run, and our children and ourselves in the immediate future. Eco-friendliness is key, and this includes waste reduction, sustainable development, furthering renewables, nature and biomimicry, and coral reef restoration. This book stands as a latest update on these fronts in beautifying tomorrow.
