Michael's book recommendation
That Hideous Strength by C.S. Lewis: This is the third book in a trilogy written by C.S. Lewis, presumably in the 1930s. The book is highlighted for its portrayal of a conservative approach to environmentalism, focusing on the love for home as a motivating factor for environmental care. It is described as being opposed to forces that aim to consume resources solely for economic benefit. This perspective has been influential in motivating involvement in environmental protection.
