What moves us to take action on behalf of the environment? That is the question at the heart of Jon Biemer's new book, which introduces us to the wisdom of counselors, the passion of youth, breakthroughs of entrepreneurs, and the yeoman competence of dedicated employees saving our planet on a daily basis.

Jon Biemer has more than forty years of experience creating sustainability including repair cafes, free cycling, village building convergences, and ballot initiatives for outdoor school and clean energy. Biemer is a mechanical engineer and holds a certificate in process-oriented psychology. He has managed utility energy conservation programs and now provides organizational development consulting to non-profits. He offsets his carbon footprint and buys resale clothing. In 2013 he walked the proposed Keystone XL pipeline route from Alberta to Nebraska with the Compassionate Earth Walk. Over the years, Jon and his wife have planted food forests, eco-remodeled their home, and lived without a power clothes dryer, refrigerator and car. He is the author of Our Environmental Handprints: Recover the Land, Reverse Global Warming, Reclaim the Future. He lives in Oregon.
