We have reached the critical moment in history when we must urgently decide what relationship we will have with the planet that sustains all known life. Will we continue with our short-sighted plunder, or will we take the positive steps necessary to secure our common future? Through extraordinary photographs this important book shows why the stakes are so high and time is so short. – Tony Juniper, Director, Friends of the Earth
