101 Things To Do With A Hole In The Ground

101 Things To Do With A Hole In The Ground by Georgina Pearman

This book was commissioned by the Post Mining Alliance, based here at the Eden Project, an expert team who work on developing better solutions to the problems caused by the legacy of mine closure.

This book is an engaging introduction to the incredible range of activities that transform old mines into new futures.

Colour illustrations and brief descriptions take the reader on a world tour of heritage and tourism attractions, wildlife habitats, educational, sport and leisure facilities and dozens of industrial uses - demonstrating that the impacts of mining can be converted from liability to opportunity and benefit for local communities.

I love books that are informative and inspirational - and this is both! It also has some brilliant photographs which show that although the Eden Project is probably the most well known example of a transformed mining landscape, it is certainly not alone. The diversity of the uses is amazing and I can thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys learning how former mining locations have found a new lease of life. Well done, George and team!
