Huellas

en busca del mundo que dejaremos atrás

Farrier, David

David Farrier invites us to think about how we will be remembered in the myths, stories and languages ??of future generations. Because tomorrow our planet will be colonized by our current human activity, through the transformation of ecosystems, the exploitation of natural resources and the generation of long-term waste. Huellas combines literature and science, history and ecology, travel and philosophy to turn many of our preconceptions on their head, draw analogies with other decisive moments of the past and show us how, in the face of pessimistic determinism, there are still alternatives and unknowns in a wonderful dialogue between past, present and future. Hand in hand with his own life and research experience, we accompany Farrier from the Baltic to the Great Barrier Reef, from Shanghai to Tasmania, to discover a world that is changing rapidly, and whose consequences will not only alter our way of thinking about the future , but will also change the way we see the world today.
