  Environmental issues affect the daily lives of everyone on Earth, from the air we breathe and the food we eat to the technology we use. They are quite simply central to our survival and the preservation of a world worth living in. This revised and updated edition offers a wide range of information to help us understand the subject, from the Flood to present-day holes in the sky, from the earthworm to Agribiz and the photo-biological reactor, from the vanishing topsoil of the Third World and th starvation diet of much of its population to the conspicuous consumption of the industrialised West, and a liberated Eastern Europe anxious to join in. The book presents a fascinating but disquieting portrait of our beleaguered Earth, and points to the kinds of sustainable alternatives that might save it.
