Download The Unnatural World: The Race to Remake Civilization in Earth's Newest Age AudioBook Free
The Unnatural World chronicles a disparate strap of unlikely heroes: an effervescent mad scientist who fertilize the seas, a pigeon obsessive bent on getting back the extinct; a low-level administration functionary in China doing his better to tidy up his city, and even more. These scientists, billionaires, and normal people are working toward saving the best home humanity is likely to ever have. What is the threat? It really is us. In a period when a species dies out every 10 minutes, when summers are receiving hotter, winters colder, and oceans higher, a lot of people still refuse mankind's influence on the Earth. But all of our impacts on earth have ushered in what qualifies as a new geologic epoch, because of global warming, mass extinction, and such technologies as nuclear weaponry and plastics. The Unnatural World examines the earth we have created and analyzes the glimmers of anticipation growing from the efforts of incredible individuals seeking to change our future. Instead of a world without us, this background of the future shows how to be good gardeners, supporting people flourish along with an abundance of plants, animals, and all the exuberant profusion of life on Earth - an improved world around.
