The Story of Life & the Environment – an African perspective is about
the fragile miracle of life. It’s a celebration of the Earth’s rich and
wonderful diversity – the species, populations, communities and
ecosystems that surround us – and of nature’s resilience. It unpacks
the three major ecosystems: fresh water, the ocean and the land,
and the teeming life each supports on and around Africa. It discusses
evolution and the ever-branching tree of life; how systems work,
how populations expand and contract, and how all the elements
of life interact. And it tells the story of how humans originated in
Africa, and how we have evolved to become modern people.
The book sounds a warning about our human impact on the
planet, which is fostering rapid climate change, as well as massive
over-consumption and depletion of resources.
The book is also about responsible planning and management of
our environment and natural resources to redress damage and ensure
sustainability. This is the story of life and the environment in Africa.
