Edward O. Wilson

In *Half-Earth*, Edward O. Wilson presents a compelling argument for setting aside half of the Earth's surface as natural reserves to combat the accelerating extinction of species.

This ambitious plan aims to stabilize biodiversity and ensure the long-term survival of life on Earth.

Wilson critiques piecemeal conservation efforts and emphasizes the urgent need for a comprehensive approach to protect ecosystems and species.
