We used to believe that we control the Earth and it is subordinate to us. That everything is under our control: nature, climate, half-life of animals. But it's not. The famous TV presenter and naturalist writer Sir David Attenborough in his book is a witness and eyewitness of the irreversible changes that have occurred to the planet in recent years.

The author gives humanity a chance - it's not too late to change everything. Man is a rational being, they must learn a lesson from their mistakes and live up to their name. We can still make adjustments, we can manage the extent of our influence, change the direction of our development and become a species again, living in harmony with nature. All we need for this is will and desire. The coming decades offer one last chance to create a sustainable home for ourselves and restore the rich, healthy and wonderful world that we inherited from our distant ancestors. At stake is our future on the planet, the only place we know where life exists.
