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 & variety of life on our planet, & just as importantly how fragile that life can be. The premise of Planet Earth The Future is to identify environmental & conservation issues that surround some of the sequences in Planet Earth, & put these issues to leading commentators, including NGOs, politicians & religious leaders James Leape (WWF International), Jeffrey Mc Neely (World Conservation Union), & the Archbishop of Canterbury to name but a few of the 35 contributors. We are living in destructive times, & our responsibility for the planets stewardship is something none of us can afford to ignore. Comprised of transcripts from the series interviews, thoughtfully edited & abbreviated, this compelling & insightful book serves as a timely reminder of what needs to be done & what can be done to keep Planet Earth alive.
