BOOK SYNOPSIS
After realizing the gaping hole between his convictions about climate change and his own carbon footprint, Kurt Hoelting embarked on a yearlong experiment to rediscover the heart of his own home by the Salish Sea.
Trading in his car and jet travel for a kayak, a bicycle, and his own two feet, he spent the year exploring a circle he had drawn around his home that traced the contours of the Puget Sound basin. This voyage of discovery rekindled his love for the region of his birth, while renewing his commitment to the restoration of Puget Sounds threatened ecosystems, and to a way of life that might yet deliver a healthy future to our children.
The Circumference of Home is an inspiring reminder that what we need really is close at hand, and that the possibility for adventure lies around every bend.
