Dear All,
Bram Büscher and I were invited to comment on E.O. Wilson’s new book Half Earth, which as the name implies joins a growing campaign to set aside half the Earth’s surface as a wildlife preserve. A synopsis of the book can be found here: https://aeon.co/essays/half-of-the-earth-must-be-preserved-for-nature-conservation
followed by our commentary here: https://aeon.co/opinions/why-e-o-wilson-is-wrong-about-how-to-save-the-earth
There is space following both posts to comment and we would encourage anyone interested to do so in order to generate some thoughtful discussion of the issue.
Apologies for x-posting.
All the best,
Rob and Bram
