Planet Crunch

All the proceeds from this book will be donated by the author to the Avon Wildlife Trust.

Accompanying an ambitious project of three 25-minute films released online, this book is an attempt to draw attention to the challenges we all face; especially involving biodiversity. Compared to other recent books, Planet Crunch is very different, is presented in a popular illustrative style, and is right up-to-date. The 150-page book is based on how the media have lifted the natural world to the front-page headlines.

Contents of Planet Crunch, across 19 chapters, include David Attenborough; Greta Thunberg; biodiversity; shopping; forests; farming; fishing; food; consumption; waste/plastics/recycling; energy/oil; climate change; COVID-19; water; the media; money/fashion; Trump/Biden; aviation/travel/tourism; human population; China; nature and us.

Described as unique, political, challenging, cheeky, provocative, significant, educational, very personal, even rude, this book is certainly different to other, more conventional films and books.
