Résumé : |
Everyone on the planet relies on tropical rainforests for fresh water, clean air, and climate regulation. And now, under the threat of climate change, it is urgent we understand what's at stake for this essential ecosystem. In On the edge, Calude Martin brings together information from remote imaging, ecology, and economics to explain deforestation and forest health throughout the world. He shows how urbanization, and increasingly global economy, and a worldwide demand for biofuels put new pressure on rainforest biodiversity. And although policy changes and market forces have successfully slowed deforestation in many areas, Martin uses ice core data and historical records to demonstrate how we may trigger and accelerating cycle of forest loss if we don't act now. |
