“An exhaustive look at the people and policies that made the city of Albuquerque, where the Rio Grande is both the backbone and the bane of the city. Fleck and Berrens describe in detail how people used the river to build this modern city in the desert Southwest.” -- Kathleen Kambic, coauthor of <I>The Design Competition in Landscape Architecture: Pedagogy and Practice</I> “Ribbons of Green tells the evolving story of how people interact with and influence the Middle Rio Grande Valley, highlighting the complexities and the ways in which various communities came together to solve ecological challenges.” -- Mary Harner, professor of biology at the University of Nebraska at Kearney “Envisioning the Rio Grande’s future in a warming world means reckoning with the past. Fleck and Berrens delve into the historic systems and rules that shape the river as it flows—and sometimes dries—through Albuquerque today. And they help us all consider the collective action river governance requires.” -- Laura Paskus, author of <I>At the Precipice: New Mexico's Changing Climate</I>
