It's a wonderful book' Dara McAnulty, award-winning author of Diary
of a Young Naturalist ____________________________ Across the
planet, the futures of young people hang in the balance as they
face the harsh realities of the environmental crisis. Isn't it time
we made their voices heard? The Children of the Anthropocene, by
conservationist and activist Bella Lack, chronicles the lives of
the diverse young people on the frontlines of the environmental
crisis around the world, amplifying the voices of those living at
the heart of the crisis. Advocating for the protection of both
people and the planet, Bella restores the beating heart to global
environmental issues, from air pollution to deforestation and
overconsumption, by telling the stories of those most directly
affected. Transporting us from the humming bounty of Ecuador's
Choco Rainforest and the graceful arcs of the Himalayan Mountains,
to the windswept plains and vibrant vistas of life in Altiplano,
Bella speaks to young activists from around the world including
Dara McAnulty, Afroz Shah and Artemisa Xakriaba, and brings the
crisis vividly to life. It's time we passed the mic and listened to
different perspectives. Bella's manifestos for change will inspire
and mobilize you to rediscover the wonders and wilds of nature and,
ultimately, change the way you think about our planet in crisis.
This is your chance to hear the urgent stories of an endangered
species too often overlooked: the children of the Anthropocene.
