Havet - hvordan vi redder Jordens sidste vildnis strækker sig over hundrede år og fortæller om utallige fascinerende arter og er Sir David Attenboroughs hyldest til livet i havet.David Attenborough har optaget tv i ethvert habitat i planetens have, fra de iskolde oceaner ved vores poler til fjerntliggende koraløer. Nu deler han historien om vores sidste store vildnis – den enorme del af naturen, som former den jord, vi lever på, regulerer vores klima og skaber den luft, vi indånder.Gennem hundrede år, otte unikke habitater i havet, utallige spændende arter – og gennem personlige fortællinger, historisk viden og banebrydende videnskab – afdækker Havet mysteriet, vidunderet og skrøbeligheden bag verdens mest uudforskede habitat. Og bogen viser havets enestående modstandskraft: Det er den del af vores verden, der kan – og i nogle tilfælde allerede har – restitueret sig hurtigst. I vores levetid kunne vi se en fuldt genoprettet marinverden – endda endnu rigere og mere spektakulær, end vi har turdet at håbe på – hvis vi handler nu.

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 PLANET is the first definitive book about how these goals can tackle the environmental crisis, from rainforests to coral reefs, via wilderness, cities and in our own homes. It is a critical contribution to the most important story of the decade.
