Half-Earth

The worlds greatest naturalist (Jeffrey Sachs) proposes a plan to save Earths imperiled biosphere.

History is not a prerogative of the human species, Edward O. Wilson declares in Half-Earth. Demonstrating that we blindly ignore the histories of millions of other species, Wilson warns us that a point of no return is imminent. Wilson proposes that the only solution to our impending Sixth Extinction is to increase the area of natural reserves to half the surface of the earth. Half-Earth is a resounding conclusion to the best-selling trilogy begun by The Social Conquest of Earth and The Meaning of Human Existence.
