The Promise of Magicians

Cover of the book The Promise of Magicians

Imagine women and men who have put their talents to work for nature. By taking action to protect forests, devising new ways of farming, and fighting global warming and pollution, they are all showing that it is possible to live in harmony with the environment and work towards a sustainable future.

The renowned reporter Christophe Doré recounts the remarkable journeys of these repairers, builders, and inventors who prefer the field to television studios and action to speeches or incantations. This is the case for a French researcher interested in the powers of plants to combat pollution, a farmer who is halting the advance of the desert in Burkina Faso, a man who is saving primates by creating forest sanctuaries in Indonesia, and engineers who are restoring natural landscapes in China, while others are developing the renewable energies of tomorrow in Scotland, France, and the United States.

Inspiring eco-friendly adventures!
