A Life on Our Planet

More about the book

I've had an extraordinary life. It's only now that I appreciate how extraordinary. As a young man, I felt I was out there in the wild, experiencing the untouched natural world -- but it was an illusion. The tragedy of our time has been happening all around us, the loss of our planet's biodiversity. I have been witness to this decline. This book contains the story of how we came to make this, our greatest mistake, and how, if we act now, we can yet put it right.
