Dieter Mende has been very successful professionally since 1997 in a project office of an energy supply company and since 2003 in a communications and acquisition office of a municipal company in grasping the holistic interrelationships and presenting the possibilities.
The author has also devoted himself to his hobby of gardening by grasping the holistic connections and presenting the possibilities.

The author was also influenced by his grandfather Nikolaus Ruschin, who ran a zoo and garden supplies store in his birthplace of Haltern am See on Münsterstraße for decades; by his grandfather, who explained the bird calls and tree species to the many visitors to the Haard forest area. From the age of five, his grandfather introduced the author to the interrelationships in nature, both in detail and holistically.

The author's closeness to nature triggered the conviction: Preserve animals and nature at their origin!

The author's closeness to the energy supply has led to the conviction that our conscious use of energy and water resources is very important for future generations.
The book shows easy-to-implement possibilities without much effort.
