>>>"Alan takes us through a history of how the arrival of humans wreaked havoc with the environment."

BS.

Humans never wrecked havoc with environment.

It is the aggrandizing western mindset exemplified by imperialism and exteriorised in the rapacious assault on Nature that wrecked havoc with environment and humanity.

Indigenous societies across the world, in Africa, in Americas, in Asia, in Australia, almost every one of them worshipped Nature and Nature elements and lived in harmony with Nature.

It is the selfish self-aggrandizing westerners who disrupted the harmony of the world.

Now they are trying to make the rest of the humanity partners in their crime.

Don't get taken in by this duplicitous propaganda.

Will put this one to my Want to Read list!
