April 1982 RAIN Page 23 Greetings from Ecotopia! RAIN Vohime VIII No. 3 SPEOAL ISSUE %-■ KNOWING HOME Studies tor a Possible Portland Edited the staff of Rain Knowing Home: Studies for a Possible Portland Editors of RAIN 88 pp., 1981, $6 p.p.d. Knowing Home expands upon the ideas covered in RAIN each month with an integrated approach to self-reliance in one bioregion: our home town. An inspiring model for other cities and towns as well as an excellent way to introduce friends and family to community self-help, this beautifully illustrated book includes articles on the history of self-reliance in Portland, a bioregional map, our sense of place, strategies for a sustainable city, life support systems, profiles of community self-help projects, plus visions for an ecologically and socially balanced future. "A vision has emerged in our minds of how Portland and other communities around the country can meet the special challenges of the coming decades and become more democratic, more beautiful and more self-reliant places in which to live." Suburban Ecotopia Poster Diane Schatz 22" X 30'',$3.60ppd. The first exciting glimpses of an Ecotopian vision ... chances are you've already seen Diane Schatz's Urban Ecotopia Poster — on the cover of Rainbook, reprinted in countless numbers of books and publications, or on a friend's wall. Its city street scene gives literal expression to the idea of urban self-reliance — where cottage industries, cooperative institutions and appropriate technologies combine to make the city a habitable and happy place to be.... If your concern is reinhabiting the suburbs, you should visit Diane's Suburban Ecotopia, where the same potential can be seen in gardens, solar greenhouses and windmills. The Stepping Stones Poster is an elaborate bio-regional landscape which vividly details local economies and energies at work and play. All three of these line-drawn posters are rich in detail and perfect for coloring. Great for home or work! Urban Ecotopia Poster Diane Schatz 22" X 33",$3.60ppd.
