earthlingIf we feel helpless or overwhelmed,
if we have anger, fear, or despair, then no matter what we do to heal ourselves or the planet,
it will not succeed.

This shift involves repurposing central banks, investing in public transport, and restorative rewilding to ensure a sustainable future for all. Ultimately, the work asserts that achieving climate justice requires dismantling the power structures that have historically commodified the natural world.
"There is a tide in the affairs of men which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves. Or lose our ventures." — William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

Our Planet's Fight for Life
Half-Earth proposes an achievable plan to save our imperiled biosphere: devote half the surface of the Earth to nature.
In order to stave off the mass extinction of species, including our own, we must move swiftly to preserve the biodiversity of our planet.
