The book is gorgeous and makes a great gift, so if you need a present for the foodies in your life, look no further. The first reviews are in, and Library Journal says, "Shafia's dishes are original and inspired. Cooks are sure to find new recipes to jazz up a meal. How about Persian Stuffed Dumpling Squash with Rose Petals and Chickpea Cakes (Indian-spiced cakes)?” Phila City Paper says, "Shafia's non-preachy tone and sparkling enthusiasm make the book an inspiring read, and even the converted can learn a thing or two....No matter the season, the book's biggest gift is its lack of stereotypical self-denying, joylessly “green” environmentalism.” Hey, those are some tasty word-bites!]]> http://susty.com/book-lucid-food-cooking-for-an-eco-concious-life-louisa-shafia-green-eat/feed/ 0 http://susty.com/tropical-deforestation-basics-problem-solution-get-your-fix-environment-eco-friendly-green-design/ http://susty.com/tropical-deforestation-basics-problem-solution-get-your-fix-environment-eco-friendly-green-design/#comments Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:24:11 +0000 by George Spyros, New York City, USA http://susty.com/?p=7862 How to Save Tropical Rainforests Research reveals that logging is the largest single factor leading to tropical deforestation, as the cutting and road building associated with the timber industry opens avenues into rainforests.
