Reclaiming the Commons: Biodiversity, Traditional Knowledge, and the Rights of Mother Earth lays out the scientific, legal, political, and cultural struggle to defend the sovereignty of biodiversity and indigenous knowledge. Corporate war on nature and people through patents and corporate Intellectual Property Rights has unleashed an epidemic of biopiracy resulting in important legal battles fighting efforts to patent the rights to many plants, including basmati, neem, and wheat. The author presents details of the specific attempts made by corporations to secure these patents and the legal actions taken to fight them. The book goes beyond the legal struggle to position the necessary solutions to corporate control including the exploring the Rights of Nature and proposing a framework for a Universal Declaration of the Rights of Mother Earth. It is the first detailed legal history of the international and national laws related to biodiversity and Intellectual Property Rights.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect!
Color: Blue, Size: 9x10 FT (1～8 person), Color: Blue, Size: 9x10 FT (1～8 person)
First off, this thing is HUGE! I love that the side pockets fill with sand to keep from flying away and how easy it is to stuff back in and put away.. Its definitley machine wash safe (use cool water to prevent the material from getting messed up) and it doesn't get that wet towel smell if being used multiple times during a trip.. It's been camping and beaching LOL.. Would buy again when this one needs to be replaced.

Must buy for summer
Color: Blue, Size: 7x7 FT (1～3 person), Color: Blue, Size: 7x7 FT (1～3 person)
Lightweight, compact, and super easy to pack. Sand shakes right off and it dries quickly, which is perfect for the beach.

This picnic blanket is great! Portable, comfy, durable and easy to put back in its sleeve. Comes with stakes and a carry strap. Would buy again. I got the big size and it’s perfect.

Working well for my home physical therapy follow-up needs
Color: Assorted
These bands work well for me to continue my physical therapy regimen at home. I have only owned them for a few weeks but the quality seems to be good for my usage. Just keep in mind I am using these for PT, not for any advanced or lofty strengthening goals.
