| Zusammenfassung: | Drawing on the author's personal experiences working across the globe, this book explains why we need to conserve biodiversity, the threats it faces, how we can successfully conserve biodiversity, and some success stories of how we have conserved it.This is a personal journey from being an environmental vandal to internationally renowned conservationist. The book follows the author’s life and career in conservation, from scarring koala-feed trees to being chased by elephants, sniffed by lions, gored by quokkas, and watched by wolves. It mixes robust facts with fun stories to engage a broad audience spanning the general public to academics and enthuse them into promoting the conservation of the plants and animals humanity relies on. Split into five sections, the first explains why we should conserve Nature and the value it holds. Section 2 discusses the threats to biodiversity, and Section 3 describes the author’s personal experiences in conserving biodiversity, from creating protected areas and managing invasive species, reintroduction programmes, and the social policies we need to enact to ensure biodiversity persists. Section 4 provides examples of conservation success stories from across the globe, and the book concludes by looking at the big picture issues society needs to address to ensure that future generations get to experience the same degree of beauty of the natural world that we have.This book is a must read for all concerned with conserving Nature and sustaining our planet |
