Is there a more terrifying example than the ?Door to Hell? in Turkmenistan of the negative impact of people on Earth? But there are many, many more. This and several other frightening examples serve as prime and telling true stories in this book. Each spread has a fact box illuminating legal changes made?and not made?as a response to the disaster, and a statistics sidebar that reinforces the immense impact of each disaster through numbers. The book ends with a discussion of increased stewardship of the planet, calling readers to activism in specific ways.
