Abundant Earth

The book explores the alarming decline in biodiversity and critiques the drivers behind this ecological crisis, primarily human expansionism. Eileen Crist advocates for a dual approach: reducing the global human population and restoring ecosystems. She emphasizes the need to challenge the prevailing belief in human supremacy that fuels environmental degradation. By promoting localized economies and rewilding efforts, Crist argues for a shift towards coexistence with nature, urging society to redefine its relationship with the planet to avoid conflict and suffering.
