La vida en un planeta poco conocido : Mensajes de un mundo en transformación

In "Life on a Little-Known Planet", Elizabeth Kolbert guides us through some of the places most affected by global warming, from Greenland to the lakes of Utah, passing through protected mountains in New Zealand and coastal communities now struggling to survive. Along this journey, we witness the discovery of new species, the efforts to rescue others from the brink of extinction, and gain an understanding of the true scope of ecological restoration and wildlife reintroduction. But this book is also a tribute to the people who, from very different fields, are working to steer us away from disaster: scientists using artificial intelligence to communicate with whales, activists championing the rights of nature, islanders who have managed to live carbon-neutral lives, and researchers racing against time to find the last remaining specimens of almost invisible creatures. Kolbert, one of the world's most influential environmental voices, shows with clarity and wonder how the planet is transforming while the threats intensify. Far from being resigned, these pages invite us to better understand an extraordinary world that we risk losing and to act while we still have time. A fundamental book for anyone who wants to confront the climate crisis head-on and maintain hope.
