General information

Uncontrollable wildfires, devastating storms, shrinking glaciers, and deadly droughts—this book documents the dramatic changes taking place on our planet in all their terrifying scope. Over 230 impressive photographs, before-and-after comparisons, and satellite images illustrate the impact of natural forces and vividly demonstrate the consequences of climate change using current examples. Before-and-after examples from Italy and India show how the environment was able to partially recover during the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown. A thought-provoking book and a powerful contribution to the sustainability debate.

By drawing attention to the planet's fragility, it simultaneously celebrates its unique beauty.

With a foreword by Fritz Habekuß, author and science journalist (including for "DIE ZEIT").

Translated from the English by Dagmar Brenneisen.
