Book description
Planet Earth is the most spectacular look at our planet that
has ever been broadcast. It has made millions of viewers aware of the
breathtaking beauty and variety of life on our planet, and just as
importantly how fragile that life can be.
The premise of Planet Earth - The Future is to identify
environmental and conservation issues that surround some of the
sequences in Planet Earth, and put these issues to leading
commentators, including NGO's, politicians and religious leaders James
Leape (WWF International), Jeffrey McNeely (World Conservation Union),
and the Archbishop of Canterbury to name but a few of the 35
contributors.
We are living in destructive times, and our responsibility for the
planet's stewardship is something none of us can afford to ignore.
Comprised of transcripts from the series interviews, thoughtfully
edited and abbreviated, this compelling and insightful book serves as
a timely reminder of what needs to be done and what can be done to
keep Planet Earth alive.
