Our Once and Future Planet

Paddy Woodworth

A stirring portrait.Scientific American

An incredibly enjoyable and thought-provoking
read for the restoration scholar and general public
alike. It pushes us to think deeply and globally about
the significance of and implications for ecological
restoration practice and the human intervention
in natural landscapes in the climate century. And
it tells a really good story in the form of a hopeful
narrative for the potential future of restoration.
