Our Environmental Handprints : Recover the Land, Reverse Global Warming, Reclaim the Future Hardback

Our Environmental Handprints: Recover the Land, Reverse Global Warming, Reclaim the Future is the first book to fully explore your “Handprint” – how you can create sustainability in your life and in the world.

Your Handprint is limited only by yourimagination. The good you do can be greater than your Footprint. It is time to put more energy into your Handprint!The smart beauty of the Handprint is that it can be self-perpetuating.

Take planting a tree as an example. You put a seedling into the ground, water it, and then leave it alone.

That tree will then grow itself and pull carbon dioxide from the air and create oxygen for us to breathe for as long as it lives. And, seeds from that tree create more trees. Our Environmental Handprints: Recover the Land, Reverse Global Warming, Reclaim the Future draws our attention to proven strategies across the spectrum.

We make a difference with intelligent clothing and investments.

We can promote environmental justice and sustainable development.

We can teach environmental literacy and eat earth-friendly foods.

Handprint Thinking applies to shelter (eco-remodeling and LEED buildings), motion (electric cars and living without a car), and earth-friendly energy. We create Collective Handprints whenever we set aside a park, recover a toxic waste site, revive a river, or ban plastic bags.

Spending our money intentionally sets the stage for a Circular Economy.

We are finding creative ways to make the Paris Climate Change Agreement work.

Our Environmental Handprints: Recover the Land, Reverse Global Warming, Reclaim the Future makes the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals personal.

The final chapters show how you can become a hero in your own story – while creating twelve Collective Future Handprints.
