‘To be a well-informed citizen of Planet Earth, you need to read Elizabeth Kolbert’ Rolling StoneUrgent lessons from the frontline of the climate catastrophe – from one of our most important writers on the environment and natural world, author of the seminal The Sixth Extinction and Pulitzer Prize-winner Elizabeth Kolbert. In Life on a Little-Known Planet, we join Kolbert on the road as she travels across the globe to the places most dramatically affected by global warming, such as Greenland’s rapidly melting ice sheets and Utah’s shrinking lakes. On the way, we encounter newly discovered species and the last living members of others. We learn how to bring animals back from the brink of extinction, and see the power of rewilding up close. We also meet countless brilliant and dedicated individuals who are steering us towards a better future: scientists harnessing AI to talk to whales; activists lobbying for the rights of nature; and ordinary people making extraordinary changes, like the Samsø islanders leading a completely carbon-neutral life. Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our age. The natural world is changing profoundly, and the threats to our planet will only grow more serious. Now is the time to deepen our understanding of this incredible world we are in danger of losing – to act, while we still can.
