Healthy Planet offers a clear and concise overview of the global
ecological crisis that humanity has brought upon itself, and what
options we still have to save a benevolent climate, to restore
biodiversity, reduce pollution, and heal the ecosphere of this planet,
including ourselves. Since well before the Covid-19 crisis the United
Nations have been emphasizing that only a healthy planet can support
healthy people. The degradation and pollution of nature also poisons our
own bodies. Climate breakdown and the global loss of biodiversity also
threaten the human species. But what is a healthy planet? How does it
work, how much do we disrupt the planet's life support systems, and what
changes are overdue? We have all the necessary means at our disposal,
though just patching up the worst symptoms won't do anymore, we have to
address the underlying causes, including our habits, values, and
paradigms. We are at a crucial crossroads, and time is running short. If
we act fast enough, a dignified and truly sustainable healthy future
awaits.
