Genre: Nature/ Environmental
Title: Secret Go the Wolves
Author: R. D. Lawrence
Dec. 2010- NRDC Biogems. Last week I alerted you that a group of senators might hijack a spending bill in order to strip wolves in the Northern Rockies of their endangered species protection, opening them to mass killing by state governments. Over the past few days, members of the House have mounted the same legislative stealth attack on wolves.
But even worse: the Obama Administration may be about to join them!
R.D. Lawrence’s journey to save the wolf started more than fifty years ago. He purchased two wolf cubs from a drunken Cree in order to save the tiny creatures from sure death. Thus began his journey. He and his wife, Joan with the aid of their Malamute Tundra, fed and cared for the two pups on their farm in northern Ontario. The Canadian government offered a bounty on wolves, and they had to keep the pups a secret. This proved to be very difficult.
By journaling the daily upbringing of the two wolves, R. D Lawrence brings a new knowledge and understanding of wolves to the masses. In depth, often-humorous accounts of the growth of the two pups will enlighten and entertain readers. You will laugh and cry as you read this enchanting tale of nature and a man committed to one of God’s creatures.
A new awareness must be brought to light in order to stop the unnecessary slaughter of these beautiful creatures. Years after, Ron and Joan Lawrence, experience with Matta and Wa, wolves are still being threatened.
R. D. Lawrence wrote dozens of books during his lifetime. Honored by Earthroots with the Lifetime Achievement in Wildlife and Wilderness Conservation award in 2004, International Fund for Animal Welfare honors, and IFAW Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007 posthumously, he was a true naturalist. After Joan’s untimely death, Ron and his second wife, Sharon set up a private sanctuary, Wolf Hollow. They were also instrumental in setting up Haliburton Wolf Centre.
A tale of love, compassion and one man’s longing for knowledge, Secret Go the Wolves should be included in today’s school curriculum. The young people must be taught to respect nature in order to save this planet; they are our only hope. Bravo to Sharon Lawrence for republishing Ron’s work for another generation of nature lovers!

Genre: Environmental/ non fiction
Title: Clean Energy Common Sense
Author: Frances Beinecke w/ Bob Deans
Frances Beinecke is the president of the NRDC, ( Natural Resources Defense Council) a national environmental advocacy group. For more than 40 years the NRDC has voiced the need to curb global climate change. This book is a comprehensive, informative guide to doing just that.
Filled with statistics, it presents a very well researched argument that time is running out for this planet and it is time for each and every one of us to do something positive to make changes as soon as possible.
Well- documented facts show that clean energy legislation will cost the average American household somewhere between 23 and 44 cents a day. 23 cents a day to save this planet, sounds like a no- brainer to me. The book outlines how Environmental Entrepreneurs or E2, represents more than 1200 companies that employ more than 400,000 people nationwide. The E2 represents companies that believe in investing in energy efficiency and putting the American people back to work, an excellent joint venture.
Clean Energy, Common Sense lists too many wonderful ideas and strategies to list here, but this book should be used by every teacher of environmental studies, be in every home and every office. The book is concise, well written and informative. Dan Quayle took his message to the big screen, Frances Beinecke is bringing her message in book form, but the message is clear. It is time for the nation to wake up and realize that the clock is ticking on our future. For more information on how to buy the book or how you can take action now, visit: www.nrdc.org today!
