Calliberri: If you want to learn about our planet, look no further than Sir David Attenborough! I’m glad to have one of his books and very glad he’s sharing more of his expertise and knowledge on how better to take care of this beautiful planet 🌎 of ours! ! !

EnsembleMan: The first part sets the stage for how we got where we are.
We de-wild the earth and thus reduced both carbon sinks and animal diversity
Now he thinks we have the tools to avoid our own extinction. I think he’s ever the optimist!

Sergio: An outstanding piece of writing and research from one of the greatest communicators and nature defenders of our time. His partnership with WWF for this work really stands out.
The author takes you all the way from the wonders of nature to the horror of the destruction caused to it by humanity. Just when you are ready to lose hope, the third part of this book kicks in, and makes you understand that there is still a way out, that it is achievable with the right mindset, and that all of us, with small gestures, can contribute massively to it. One could think it is a far too simple representation of all the problems we are facing, and this might be true, but the amount of useful information one can learn from this is absolutely worth it.
I cannot express how much of an eye-opening experience reading this short, accessible, yet very thorough book has been to me. An absolute must.

Mark Proctor: The BBC commentator seems to have awaken to the most dangerous animal in the jungle. Us.
A recent trip to Hawaii confirms to me the destruction of the reefs and the vanishing reef fish.
The scale of the "die offs" around us is catalogued in this book.
It doesn't look good.
