Description

The Big Idea shortlisted for series design in the British Design and Production Awards

The effects of global warming are being felt around the world through climate change, and images of our rivers and oceans choking with plastic have provoked an instinctive horrified reaction. In response, governments, corporations and individuals are beginning to change their policies and behaviour - but is it too little, too late Is it possible to reverse the damage we have done to the planet, or have we reached the point where we are only able to manage the problems and devastation caused This engaging and incisive volume offers insightful analysis of a range of key issues including deforestation, global warming and single use plastics, while evaluating whether - and how - it may just be possible to mend our planet.
