Charting my journey of studying ecology

 My aim is to contribute to greening earth and increasing biodiversity. I find material scattered far and wide in the process of trying to do something tangible, sitting in the confines of a city.

This blog is an attempt to capture my journey while I navigate websites, books, online course materials and any available study material which I come across and delve into, as well as practical seminars and field trips, field studies which I encounter and possibly experience.

If all this can be put together somewhere in the journey into a fully available course, I would work on that, so as to help people like me who want to help green earth but don't know where to start,

First step - A course on a business approach to sustainable landscape restoration

 I came across this course in Coursera,  https://www.coursera.org/learn/landscape-restoration-sustainable-development/home/module/1  and have started my journey here. So far it was good to learn about the Loess plateau landscape restoration. I have started at the free module and listening to all the lectures to decide whether to pay and attend this program. There was a pre-step where I did a 6 course program from Stanford Online (paid). More details at  https://online.stanford.edu/programs/energy-innovation-and-emerging-technologies-program This is a good program for an introduction to environment, clean energy and the available options for clean renewable energy + lots of details on existing and new technologies. I am doing a deep dive into reviewing books on ecology, horticulture and floriculture in Amazon and will post reviews shortly on each and every book I decide to buy and read. Cheers and bye for now!

Exploring books - Pearsons book on ecology

 Going ahead and ordering my first book on ecology -  https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/9332536694/ref=ox_sc_act_title_14?smid=A2I94GG026HFM&psc=1 Reviews suggest a lot of in depth including environment, botany and zoology so I am ordering this and giving it a try. Will read it in detail and post review of the book in this blog. Another book I am trying is on regenerative agriculture - it has good reviews and traces the path of a lady from city to farm life and how she built it. Looks promising. https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/024199182X/ref=ox_sc_act_title_8?smid=AJEZFO8381MOH&psc=1 Few other books in my to-read list is related to Floriculture, Horticulture and Permaculture. Will read the books and post reviews as I proceed.
