Half-Earth: Our Planet’s Fight for Life by E.O. Wilson
For anyone interested in conservation, ecology, climate change and the future of the human race, E.O. Wilson’s recent book is possibly the most important book to come along in quite a while. After studying how species adapt and survive throughout his long career, and writing numerous books and articles on the subject, Wilson has now devised a plan by which we could save many species which will otherwise go extinct. His plan is based on knowledge and experience gathered through years of scientific research.
But we are at a critical juncture. There is no time for hesitation or mistakes. Wilson explains why the situation is urgent, and what we can do take action. Read a recent review of the book here.
