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.

In the process, they documented a vanishing world and set off a new era of conservation biology.

One afternoon many years ago, James Rebanks met an old woman on a remote Norwegian island. She lived and worked alone on a tiny rocky outcrop, caring for wild Eider ducks and gathering their down. Hers was a centuries-old trade that had once made men and women rich but had long been in decline. Still, somehow, she seemed to be hanging on.

Seit Jahrtausenden betrachtet der Mensch die Natur aus einem egozentrischen Blickwinkel und bedient sich mit größter Selbstverständlichkeit an ihren Schätzen. Mit jedem Stück ursprünglicher Natur, das durch unser Eingreifen verloren geht, verlieren wir auch einen Teil unserer Seele. Die Natur ist die Grundlage unseres Lebens. Um unseren Planeten zu schützen und lebenswert zu erhalten, müssen wir unsere Rolle im Universum neu definieren: Der Mensch steht nicht im Mittelpunkt, sondern ist Teil der Natur, die es zu schützen gilt.
