Description
Scott Russell Sanders calls for a culture of conservation that allows us to savor and preserve the world. In this thought-provoking book, he explores how we might shift towards a more durable and responsible way of life. Sanders draws on a wide range of sources, from the natural world to cultural icons, to make the case for a conservation ethic. He argues that conservation is not just a personal virtue, but a public one, with crucial relevance at a time of mounting concern about global climate change, depletion of natural resources, and economic inequities. A Conservationist Manifesto offers a powerful vision for a more sustainable future, challenging us to rethink our values and behaviour in the face of environmental crisis.
