This book contains timeless photograph images that illustrate the issues that will define the 21st century. The effect of this book is unlike any statement yet made about the environment by governments, NGOs, UN organisations or journalists. Anger, sorrow, joy, despair, and more surprisingly, humour triggered these unique photographs.
These pictures are also proof of the extraordinary reach and power of photography. They can be viewed without translation by anyone, from any background rich or poor, literate or illiterate. This makes photography uniquely well suited to presenting issues of deep concern to the whole of humanity. |
