Seller's Description:
Book Quarto, hardcover, fine in green and orange pictorial boards. Giftable. The Gaia Hypothesis proposes that the biosphere-the thin film between the Earth's rocky surface and outer space that is the home of plants and animals, including ourselves-is like a living organism. Life, by its very presence, is apparently creating-and maintaining, the special conditions necessary for its own survival. The Young Gaia Atlas of Earthcare is the most comprehensive and up-to-date "blueprint for our survival" ever drafted for young people. Recognizing that humankind is at a turning point in its history, the text addresses the question of whether we can make the transition from a reckless past to a sustainable future. Can we end destruction, poverty, hunger and violence to create a nature-guarding, equitable and peaceable society? The answer this book gives is yes, if we learn to obey nature's rules and recognize our interdependence with all living things. 191 pp. including index.
