Concrete Botany is a gritty, kick-in-the-guts look at the ecological disturbance humans have caused and the resilience of the plants living amongst it.

Delivered in his raw and unapologetic yet botanically accurate tone, Joey Santore--the unforgettable host of Crime Pays but Botany Doesn't--offers an often unsettling view of human-caused ecological destruction and its impact on the natural ecosystems our very lives depend on.

The choices of modern civilization have led to a f***ed-up planet, scraped bare and covered in concrete and invasive species. We've wiped out entire ecosystems, moved invasive plants to new continents where they don't belong, and, in a few hundred years, we've managed to muck up the intricate balance of a planet that has been evolving for eons. The consequences of our actions are now at our doorstep, ready to strike a match.

But not all is lost. In this groundbreaking examination of plants and their role in the Anthropocene (the age of human disturbance), we see light through the cracks in the concrete and learn that humanity's course correction starts with an understanding of plant ecology. With this knowledge comes the realization that the lives of humans and plants are interconnected in ways humans cannot live without. Plants are the base of every terrestrial ecosystem on the planet, and their presence can heal the damage humanity has caused. Our willingness to restore native plant communities and the biodiversity they support (starting in our immediate surroundings) is an essential first step in the right direction.

While returning every abandoned brownfield and old rail corridor into a native plant-filled, fully restored ecosystem may be out of reach for the average citizen, fostering the native ecology and biodiversity of our own backyards is not. Concrete Botany is ultimately about how the choices we make as individuals can help ensure humanity's survival on a very disturbed and rapidly changing planet.

For 99 Integra
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have not seen this one that was sent in a black bottle, anywhere else. It does state for Honda & Acura. I have a 1999 Acura Integra and was using the (Honda) genuine power steering fluid in the silver bottle with a blue cap. So, just taking off one star because i haven't used it yet. Seals seeping on rack & pinion, so using just to top it off every now & then.
