Winner of the Rachel Carson Award for Excellence in Environmental Journalism, Water Always Wins is a hopeful journey around the world and across time, illuminating better ways to live with water.

Nearly every human endeavor on the planet was conceived and constructed with a relatively stable climate in mind. But as new climate disasters remind us every day, our world is not stable--and it is changing in ways that expose the deep dysfunction of our relationship with water. Increasingly severe and frequent floods and droughts inevitably spur calls for higher levees, bigger drains, and longer aqueducts. But as we grapple with extreme weather, a hard truth is emerging: our development, including concrete infrastructure designed to control water, is actually exacerbating our problems. Because sooner or later, water always wins.

In this quietly radical book, science journalist Erica Gies introduces us to innovators in what she calls the Slow Water movement who start by asking a revolutionary question: What does water want? Using close observation, historical research, and cutting-edge science, these experts in hydrology, restoration ecology, engineering, and urban planning are already transforming our relationship with water.

Modern civilizations tend to speed water away, erasing its slow phases on the land. Gies reminds us that water's true nature is to flex with the rhythms of the earth: the slow phases absorb floods, store water for droughts, and feed natural systems. Figuring out what water wants--and accommodating its desires within our human landscapes--is now a crucial survival strategy. By putting these new approaches to the test, innovators in the Slow Water movement are reshaping the future.

Average pillow that might be great for some folks, not for me
Color: White, Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
I should have know this would be like every other pillow I've ever ordered. It's too puffy for me. No give. It claims to offer better support for side sleepers but instead it's giving me kinks in my neck. Not for me. Not adjustable. Not versatile. Standard materials. White. Can't speak to washability and durability as I have had it long and haven't washed it. fair price for two standard pillows. I really wish all these bedding companies would stop rolling and vacuum sealing pillows and such.

⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Comfortable pillows with good support
Color: White, Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
I purchased the EIUE Hotel Collection bed pillows (2 pack) looking for something comfortable and supportive, and overall they’ve been a good addition to my bed. The pillows arrived well packaged and fluffed up nicely after opening. They feel soft but still provide decent support for sleeping. I’m mostly a side and back sleeper, and these pillows have worked well without feeling too flat. They hold their shape better than I expected and don’t require constant fluffing during the night. The fabric feels smooth and breathable, which helps keep them comfortable. My only small downside is that they’re slightly softer than what I personally prefer, but that really comes down to personal preference. Overall, these are comfortable, good-quality pillows that offer nice support and value for the price. I’d recommend them if you’re looking for hotel-style pillows that are soft yet supportive.
