pickThis is an interesting look at how the earth is alive and shaped by the organisms upon and within it, and not just us. It‘s a narrative story but also filled with fascinating facts—there are bacteria far below the earth‘s surface, a single elephant print can sometimes hold 50 gallons of water, etc. I really enjoyed it.
pickCombing science and history and told through a climate change lens. But isn‘t all doom and gloom, there is a lot of focus on what we can still do. Every chapter features a scientist or researcher and the work they are trying to do to turn back the clock. I enjoyed the chapter detailing controlled burning and how indigenous peoples all over the world have been practicing this long before recorded history.
Good for fans of The Sixth Extinction.
It‘s basically required to read this outside. 😁🐝🌻
Very interesting so far, and I‘m learning a lot.
