Synopsis

In this international bestseller, originally published in France in 2003 and updated with the latest research, one of the world’s greatest astrophysicists, Hubert Reeves, has turned his attention back to the planet Earth. What he describes here is dire. Polluting industries are booming in the heavily populated nations of China and India. The Western world continues to consume non-renewable natural resources at an ever-increasing rate. The world’s climate veers from disaster to disaster due to global warming. Drawing from data from a broad spectrum of scientific fields, Reeves has come to the alarming conclusion that the human species is well on its way to making the world uninhabitable.

We are in a race against time — and unless we do something, we all lose.

With Terracide, Hubert Reeves joins the ranks of eminent scientists such as David Suzuki and NASA’s James Hansen who, in the face of corporate hostility and government suppression, are calling for immediate worldwide action in order to preserve our planet and our future.
