The year was 2258, And The first Rangers of the Earth Preserve were sent To The surface of the now uninhabited planet. It was vacated because we humans were simply too inept to care For The earth... She was sick and dying, and we, The people, were clearly the cause. There was only one rational solution to save the earth...we as a species must leave her. When environmentalists finally convinced world leaders of the global warming crisis, it was clear something drastic had to be done. Realizing that the earth would not survive mankind's thoughtless abuse much longer, humanity was forced to migrate To The orbiting Cities suspended five hundred miles above the surface of the planet. A different type of governance was established, called the Caretakers, whose purpose was the guardianship and welfare of the earth. As the sole stewards of the planet, they drafted a force of young, highly trained environmental specialists, The Rangers of the Earth Preserve, To venture To The earth and ensure her protection. But shortly after these Rangers begin their first tour of duty on the planet, one team, Senior Ranger Hicks and Junior Ranger Sara Goldman, discovers a secret so dire that it will forever change the relationship between the Cities And The earth. Catapulted into a deadly maze where deception, betrayal, and deep-rooted scandal lurk around every corner, these two Rangers must fight For The truth before it's too late. The Rangers of the Earth Preserve: An Environmental Tale by R.H. Biesel is an action-packed thriller with a unique twist on the political and environmental questions of our times. Readers will be kept guessing till the very end as they seek to find out the fate of all mankind.

RAIGE RUNS IN THE FAMILY General Cypher Raige of the United Ranger Corps is only the latest in a long line of heroes. For a thousand years, ever since the globe was engulfed by environmental apocalypse, the Raiges have been instrumental in humanity’s survival.

Now Cypher has returned to his family after an extended tour of duty. For his thirteen-year-old son, Kitai, tagging along with his famous father is the adventure of a lifetime—and a chance to salvage their relationship.

Kitai Raige has always wanted to prove that he has what it takes to live up to his illustrious name. Now, all too soon, he gets his chance. With his father’s life on the line, Kitai must venture out into the strange, hostile terrain of a new world that seems eerily familiar: Earth.

An urgent, resounding call to protect 50 percent of the earth's land by 2050—thereby saving millions of its species—and a candid assessment of the health of our planet and our role in conserving it, from the award-winning author of The Experience of Place and veteran New Yorker staff writer. "An upbeat and engaging account of the remarkable progress being made to preserve vast wild spaces for animals to roam." —The Wall Street Journal Beginning in the vast North American Boreal Forest that stretches through Canada, and roving across the continent, from the Northern Sierra to Alabama's Paint Rock Forest, from the Appalachian Trail to a ranch in Mexico, Tony Hiss sets out on a journey to take stock of the "superorganism" that is the earth: its land, its elements, its plants and animals, its greatest threats--and what we can do to keep it, and ourselves, alive. Hiss not only invites us to understand the scope and gravity of the problems we face, but also makes the case for why protecting half the land is the way to fix those problems. He highlights the important work of the many groups already involved in this fight, such as the Indigenous Leadership Initiative, the Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative, and the global animal tracking project ICARUS. And he introduces us to the engineers, geologists, biologists, botanists, oceanographers, ecologists, and other "Half Earthers" like Hiss himself who are allied in their dedication to the unifying, essential cause of saving our own planet from ourselves. Tender, impassioned, curious, and above all else inspiring, Rescuing the Planet is a work that promises to make all of us better citizens of the earth.
In Cows Save the Planet, journalist Judith D. Schwartz looks at soil as a crucible for our many overlapping environmental, economic, and social crises. Schwartz reveals that for many of these problems—climate change, desertification, biodiversity loss, droughts, floods, wildfires, rural poverty, malnutrition, and obesity—there are positive, alternative scenarios to the degradation and devastation we face. In each case, our ability to turn these crises into opportunities depends on how we treat the soil. Drawing on the work of thinkers and doers, renegade scientists and institutional whistleblowers from around the world, Schwartz challenges much of the conventional thinking about global warming and other problems. For example, land can suffer from undergrazing as well as overgrazing, since certain landscapes, such as grasslands, require the disturbance from livestock to thrive. Regarding climate, when we focus on carbon dioxide, we neglect the central role of water in soil—"green water"—in temperature regulation. And much of the carbon dioxide that burdens the atmosphere is not the result of fuel emissions, but from agriculture; returning carbon to the soil not only reduces carbon dioxide levels but also enhances soil fertility. Cows Save the Planet is at once a primer on soil's pivotal role in our ecology and economy, a call to action, and an antidote to the despair that environmental news so often leaves us with.

In fantastic worlds like Gondor, Westeros, Ankh-Morpork, Waterdeep, and Hogsmeade, the societies that inhabit them play important roles in capturing the feel of their settings. Societies create characters and plots, provide space for action, and reflect history. Building vibrant and interesting societies is a core element of worldbuilding in the fantasy genres. This guide walks the reader through different aspects of societies to help construct fictional worlds with greater ease. Examples of societies built by numerous authors in the fantasy, urban/modern fantasy, and paranormal romance genres are interwoven to illustrate concepts. Throughout, this book is descriptive and suggestive rather than prescriptive, and is intended to inform as well as inspire the worldbuilder.
My passion for writing is based on both my parents love of early South Texas and northern Mexico history. My father was quite good at sharing oral history stories and for that reason I dedicate this book to him. Equally important, my mother, Maria de la Luz Snchez Uribe de Lpez was also gifted in recalling the stories she heard as a child. In both Spanish and English, she had tremendous communication abilities in vividly remembering stories about our ancestors.
