How to Save Our Planet: The Factsisa much needed evidence-based handbook and rallying cry for urgent climate action. Professor Mark Maslin unfolds the magnitude of what humans have done to our precious planet while pointing to how we can solve the climate emergency before it is too late
Climate change facts have never been asunderstandableor ascompellingas in Professor Maslin's book. This is a book to be read, understood and acted upon
Fascinating, terrifying, but ultimately hopeful,How To Save Our Planetis an important call to arms for the most important battle of all - the fight to secure our future. It injects much-needed clarity and offers practical advice for a problem that for many of us has felt too complex and overwhelming to face, let alone fix.Saving the world is no small thing, but picking up this book's a good start
Mark Maslin's book isa fact-bomb, one that blasts through climate denial to clear a path for action on the greatest threat that our planet faces
A handbook of clearly established, authoritative facts and figures about the terrible toll we as humans have taken of our planet, plus ways in which we can lessen the impact. For laypeople like me, who can see what is happening but haven't always got the precise statistics to hand,it's hugely valuable. I think everyone should read it and absorb its contents: sobering, certainly, and more than a little frightening, but at least we won't be able to claim ignorance as we blunder on our destructive way
There are some books which are important, and there are others which are a necessity. This is certainly the latter. It'spowerful, honest and really cleverly written. I am left feeling more informed of the solutions and more empowered to make a difference
I love it. My kids love it
Mark Maslin isan environmental pathologist stripping away the superfluous and cutting to the very heart of the problem with a brilliant clarity. This book is a roadmap to recovery for humanity, informing and inspiring in equal measure. It is a book every human needs to have to hand as we tackle this crisis head on
Ideological debates on Global Warming often produce a fog of confusion in public life. This book cuts through that fog and suggests a way forward. The handy list of salutary and indisputable facts that Maslin has assembled here will ensure thatHow to Save Our Planetwill serve asa much-needed guidebook that will help us negotiate our disorienting times
From the big bang to the future of our fast-warming world, Mark takes us at breakneck speed through the ways humanity is shaping the planet, andpresents with amazing clarity steps everyone can take to make the world a better place
A book for anyone who needs a crash course on the condition of our planet and what can be done about it, and itoffers a perfect balance of climate realism and climate optimism
A valuable resource, in that epic struggle, now underway, to head off apocalypse. Mark does not pull punches about the nightmare that we are staring down the barrel of. He is helpfully clear that we cannot now prevent disasters: they are here, and we are going to have to adapt to a rising tide of them. He is right that there is enormous scope for us to act, collectively, to slow down that rising tide - and even perhaps, even now, to create an ecotopia on Earth
Atimely and important book, not only laying out the facts - what we know and how we know it - but suggestingreal solutionsto the challenges facing us
A compelling and crystal clear narrative. By marshalling all the facts, by giving a reference for every single one of them, he has made this slim volume both a sword of truth and the doorway to a much deeper understanding of the facts
Professor Mark Maslin has produced what is an essential guide to climate solutions and a must for all our communities in order to tackle the minefield of climate action
More than anythingthis book is about empowerment. A reminder that facts and action matter, and that every one of us can make a difference.Professor Maslin has packed a rucksack for change. Pick it up and let's go save our planet!
Abrilliantly crafted bookthat addresses one of the huge issues underlying the climate crisis: having the right tools and knowledge to clearly communicate facts, counter misinformation and offer up solutions. So we can effectively spread the word about how to collectively fix our planet
Ina strikingly original and accessible format, Mark Maslin's book provides a fascinating collection of the most important facts about the climate crisis and how to tackle it
Don't let anyone tell you climate change is an insoluble problem. It can be solved, and in time to avoid the worst impacts. In thisvital bookMark Maslin - punchily and entertainingly - tells us how
This book is for everyone. Climate change is happening to us all and we all have a responsibility to understand what is going on to be able to make a difference, this book is your quick and accessible guide to understanding the science and what it's going to take for each and every one of us to save our planet
Everyone should have this book
Amazing book
Ano-nonsense crib sheeton the state of the world and how to help it
If his book falls into the hands of the powerfulthen it could just save the planet. At the very least, it will provide some thought-provoking facts
Punchy and to the point.No beating around the bush. This brilliant book contains all the information we need to have in our back pocket in order to move forward
