We are facing nothing less than the collapse of the living world. This is a series of one-way doors bringing irreversible change. Within the span of the next lifetime, the security and stability of the Holocene, our Garden of Eden, will be lost. The longer we leave this, the harder it will be to do something about this. None of us can afford for this to happen.
The only way out of this crisis that we have created is to ‘rewild’ the world and restore its biodiversity by everyone educating themselves on what they can do, and take action.
