A powerful and inspiring manifesto for change, written by Caroline Lucas, a former leader of The Green Party.

"A remarkable and important book," praised Steve Backshall, a naturalist, broadcaster, and author.

Bella's writing is astute, erudite, and crystalline, conveying visionary clarity and passion. It is a wonderful book, said Dara McAnulty, an award-winning author of "Diary of a Young Naturalist."

Across the globe, the futures of young people hang in the balance as they confront the harsh realities of the environmental crisis. Isn't it time we made their voices heard?

The Children of the Anthropocene, by conservationist and activist Bella Lack, chronicles the lives of the diverse young people on the frontlines of the environmental crisis around the world, amplifying the voices of those living at the heart of the crisis.

Advocating for the protection of both people and the planet, Bella restores the beating heart to global environmental issues, from air pollution to deforestation and overconsumption, by telling the stories of those most directly affected.

Transporting us from the humming bounty of Ecuador's Choco Rainforest and the graceful arcs of the Himalayan Mountains, to the windswept plains and vibrant vistas of life in Altiplano, Bella speaks to young activists from around the world, including Dara McAnulty, Afroz Shah, and Artemisa Xakriabá, and brings the crisis vividly to life.

It is time we passed the mic and listened to different perspectives. Bella's manifestos for change will inspire and mobilize you to rediscover the wonders and wilds of nature and, ultimately, change the way you think about our planet in crisis. This is your chance to hear the urgent stories of an endangered species too often overlooked: the children of the Anthropocene.
