The future of life on earth ...

The future of life on earth depends on our ability to take action. Many individuals are doing what they can, but real success can only come if there\'s a change in our societies and our economics and in our politics. I\'ve been lucky in my lifetime to see some of the greatest spectacles that the natural world has to offer. Surely we have a responsibility to leave for future generations a planet that is healthy, inhabitable by all species

Children start off reading in books about lions and giraffes and so on, but they also-if theyre lucky enough and have reasonable privileges of any human being-are able to go into a garden and turn over stone and see a worm and see a slug and see an ant.
