Rewilding the Urban Frontier:...
Rewilding the Urban Frontier: River Conservation in the Anthropocene, a new book from University of Nebraska Press in which 13 authors examine the recovery of America's urban rivers. Available wherever books are sold. Visit https://rewildingurbanrivers.com/ for more. Once a necessity for the development of civilization, by the twentieth century America's rivers became neglected and abused, channelized, dammed, and filled with sewage and toxic waste. While acknowledging the profound impact our species has had on the natural world, and on rivers in particular, Rewilding the Urban Frontier argues that the Anthropocene presents opportunities for rethinking our relationship to the natural world and potentially healing the age-old rift between humans and nature.
