I've had an extraordinary life. It's only now that I appreciate how extraordinary. As a young man, I felt I was out there in the wild, experiencing the untouched natural world -- but it was an illusion. The tragedy of our time has been happening all around us, the loss of our planet's biodiversity. I have been witness to this decline. This book contains the story of how we came to make this, our greatest mistake, and how, if we act now, we can yet put it right.
As Prince William, founder of The Earthshot Prize, said, 'The Earth is at a
tipping point and we face a stark choice: either we continue as we are and
irreparably damage our planet, or we remember our unique power as human beings
and our continual ability to lead, innovate, and problem-solve. People can
achieve great things. The next ten years present us with one of our greatest
tests - a decade of action to repair the Earth.' The Earthshot concept is
simple: Urgency + Optimism = Action. We have ten years to turn the tide on the
environmental crisis, but we need the world's best solutions and one shared
goal - to save our planet. It's not too late, but we need collective action
now. The Earthshots are unifying, ambitious goals for our planet which, if
achieved by 2030, will improve life for all of us, for the rest of life on
Earth, and for generations to come. They are to: Protect and Restore Nature
Clean our Air Revive our Oceans Build a Waste-Free World * Fix our Climate
EARTHSHOT: HOW TO SAVE OUR PLANETis the first definitive book about how these
goals can tackle the environmental crisis. It is a critical contribution to
the most important story of the decade.
