BEYOND THE WAR ON INVASIVE SPECIES: A PERMACULTURE APPROACH TO ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION

Book ID/图书代码: 03008015B82150

English Summary/英文概要:

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 森林里、草原上、山顶上和河口边,到处都有入侵生物。他们蔓延的速度之快,繁殖的数量之大严重威胁着本地物种和他们赖以生存的生态系统。入侵生物对全球生物多样性和生态完整性引起了多方的担忧和关注,从学校到董事会,还有普通市民都在积极商讨该如何快速有效地控制入侵生物的数量。这些担忧慢慢形成了一场“对抗入侵生物的战争”,人们纷纷用推土机、链锯、农药消灭入侵生物。在夏威夷,红树林被喷洒上了草甘膦,然后在它们生长的海岸线边慢慢腐烂分解;在华盛顿,直升机会对光滑的带状草地喷洒除草剂。人们在对抗入侵生物的战争中显得情绪高涨,但是这样的战争有潜在的危险性,也会对生态环境造成一定的破坏。是时候思考一下这场战场的本质了。

《与入侵生物的战争之外》在对抗入侵生物的这一问题上提供了另一个视角,建立了一个全面的,致力于永久培养的工作框架。本书利用了最新的研究成果,并考虑了如何改变生态系统的本质,审视了在入侵生物这个命题上经常被忽视的因素,其中包括如何使气候变化、栖息地破坏和土地使用变化之间产生的碰撞效果对生物增殖有所贡献。《与入侵生物的战争之外》阐述了对于生物入侵这个命题,超出大众认知的部分有很多。本书还解释了入侵生物是如何出现的,以及生态系统的作用,以便能做出更有益于土地保护和生物多样性保护的决策,从根本上解决生物入侵。我们每天做的决定,例如我们消费食物、居住地、水源、药物和交通的方式都对生态结构和功能有至关重要的作用;因此,深入和持久的生态环境保护并不单单是消灭入侵生物,而是对整个生产系统进行精密的全新设计。(XAT)

Awards/获奖情况:“《与入侵生物的战争之外》提供了一条对于地球更深层保护的全新思路。通过深入的研究和思考,作者提出了对入侵生物的全面看法,带领我们在变化的时代中,在保护家园的生态环境这个问题上能团结一致。这本书提出了在文明进程中,我们对构建一个更好的社会有着举足轻重的作用。”——卡特里娜布莱尔,《野草的疯狂智慧:对人类生存相当重要的13种植物》

“Beyond the War on Invasive Species creates an essential pathway for deeper care of the Earth. The holistic perspective of invasives is shared through deep experience and thoughtfulness and ultimately leads us to a greater and more aligned role in restoration of our home’s ecosystems in these changing times. This book offers a critical role in civilization’s evolution and highlights actions that recognize deeper values that benefit our society as a whole.”--Katrina Blair, author of The Wild Wisdom of Weeds: 13 Essential Plants for Human Survival

About the Author/作者介绍: 道•俄里翁是一位永久培养设计师、老师、自耕农,也是一位母亲,现居于俄勒冈州的威拉米特河流域南部。她在俄勒冈州立大学教授永久培养设计,这是一所占地40英亩的非盈利教育组织。道通过瑞瑟恩思永久培养设计公司对农场、森林和保护计划等问题提供咨询服务。她拥有加州大学圣克鲁兹分校农业生态学和可持续农业专业学位,她对环境恢复的兴趣在俄勒冈州尤金科伦巴亚植物研究学院学习植物学、野外植物工艺和草药医学的时候被破坏了。但她对有机农业、可持续土地使用规划、人类植物学和生态系统修复的整合有很大的兴趣,也很热衷创建有益社会、经济和生态的环境。道不写作的时候,就在忙于照顾孩子和6.5英亩自耕田上的动植物。

大卫•霍蒙格林与比尔•莫里逊于1978年出版了《永久培养一》,并原创了永久培养理论。随后大卫又相继出版了几本书籍,利用永久培养理论开发了三个性能,在澳大利亚、新西兰、欧洲和日本等地开设了许多工作坊和课程。随着永久培养运动在全球越来越广泛,大卫也因其通过实际项目和教学而对永久培养理论所作出的贡献受到尊重。大卫提出可持续的生活方式是相较于依赖性消费来说,可行,有吸引力和力量的生活方式。除了对永久培养理论所做出的实际行动,大卫对可持续发展的哲学和概念基础也相当感兴趣,他的这一理念在他的许多作品中也能看出,例如《未来的场景:社团如何处理石油峰值和气候变化》(2009年),以及《永久培养:可持续发展的理论和道路》(2003年)。大卫•霍蒙格林是一位公共演说家,领导着这个时代对环境问题最尖端、最另类的看法。大卫现在和妻子苏•丹妮特和儿子奥利弗住在“蒙里道拉”,一个位于澳大利亚维多利亚中部赫本温泉,面积一公顷的永久培养展示基地。详情请见:www.holmgren.com.au.

Tao Orion is a permaculture designer, teacher, homesteader, and mother living in the southern Willamette Valley of Oregon. She teaches permaculture design at Oregon State University and at Aprovecho, a 40-acre nonprofit sustainable-living educational organization. Tao consults on holistic farm, forest, and restoration planning through Resilience Permaculture Design, LLC. She holds a degree in agroecology and sustainable agriculture from UC Santa Cruz, and her interest in restoration was piqued when studying botany, wildcrafting, and herbalism at the Columbines School of Botanical Studies in Eugene, Oregon. She has a keen interest in integrating the disciplines of organic agriculture, sustainable land-use planning, ethnobotany, and ecosystem restoration in order to create beneficial social, economic, and ecological outcomes. When she is not writing, she is busy keeping up with her toddler and wrangling a diverse array of plants and animals on her 6.5-acre homestead, Viriditas Farm.

David Holmgren is best known as the co-originator with Bill Mollison of the permaculture concept following the publication of Permaculture One in 1978. Since then he has written several more books, developed three properties using permaculture principles, conducted workshops and courses in Australia, New Zealand, Europe and Japan. Within the growing and international permaculture movement, David is respected for his commitment to presenting permaculture ideas through practical projects and teaching by personal example, that a sustainable lifestyle is a realistic, attractive and powerful alternative to dependent consumerism. As well as constant involvement in the practical side of permaculture, David is passionate about the philosophical and conceptual foundations for sustainability, which he explored in Future Scenarios: How Communities Can Adapt to Peak Oil and Climate Change (2009), and Permaculture: Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability (2003). With an increasingly high profile as a public speaker, David Holmgren provides leadership with his refreshing and unorthodox approach to the environmental issues of our time.

David lives with his partner Su Dennett and their son Oliver at "Melliodora", a one-hectare permaculture demonstration site at Hepburn Springs, Central Victoria, Australia. Visit his web site at www.holmgren.com.au.
