Description
We have entered the post-natural phase of life on earth, in which humans are the leading force shaping evolution. As we warm our world and radically reshape the biosphere, we affect everything from novel hybrids such as the pizzly bear, to entirely new strains of animals and plants evolving at breakneck speed to cope with their altered environment. In this book, we meet some of the conservationists seeking to steer evolution onto a firmer footing with novel methods like coral IVF and plans to release wild elephants into Denmark.
