During the 1920s, dozens of expeditions scoured the Chinese and Tibetan wilderness in search of the panda bear, a beast that many believed did not exist. When the two eldest sons of President Theodore Roosevelt sought the bear in 1928, they had little hope of success. Together with a team of scientists and naturalists, they accomplished what a decade of explorers could not, ultimately introducing the panda to the West. In the process, they documented a vanishing world and set off a new era of conservation biology.

The world at the moment is not a very safe place to be in. We still have the war in Ukraine and Russia and we don't know how that is going to pan out. Some people in high places are talking up a nuclear exchange where as I think others have calmer heads and I hope they will prevail.

In other words everything we need for civilization to survive and get ahead seems to be in short supply. And the time frame for this to start affecting us is not too far in the future. We ...
