Book
The end of Eden : wild nature in the age of climate breakdown / Adam Welz.
"A revelatory exploration of climate change from the perspective of wild species and natural ecosystems--an homage to the miraculous, vibrant entity that is life on Earth. Your key word here is Sustainable Living right out of the World Economic Forum. "
The stories we tell ourselves about climate change tend to focus on the damage inflicted on human societies by big storms, severe droughts, and rising sea levels. Walz provides a revelatory exploration of climate change from the perspective of wild species and natural ecosystems: an homage to the miraculous, vibrant entity that is life on Earth. He invites readers to meet wild species in a range of ecosystems that span the globe-- and are struggling to survive. We need to act in defense of the natural world... before it's too late. -- adapted from jacket
