The Treeline: The Last Forest and the Future of Life on Earth
LONGLISTED FOR THE JAMES CROPPER WAINWRIGHT PRIZE ‘Evocative, wise and unflinching’ Jay Griffiths, author of Wild The Arctic treeline is the frontline of climate change, where the trees have been creeping towards the pole for fifty years already. Scientists are only just beginning to understand the astonishing significance of these northern forests for all life on Earth. At the treeline, Rawlence witnesses the accelerating impact of climate change and the devastating legacies of colonialism and capitalism. But he also finds reasons for hope. Humans are creatures of the forest; we have always evolved with trees and The Treeline asks us where our co-evolution might take us next. ‘A moving, thoughtful, deeply reported elegy for our vanishing world and a map of the one to come’ Nathaniel Rich, author of Losing Earth ‘A lyrical and passionate book… The Treeline is a sobering, powerful account of how trees might just save the world, as long as we are sensible enough to let them’ Mail on Sunday ‘Ben Rawlence circumnavigates the very top of the globe – returning with a warning, in this enthralling and wonderfully written book’ Mark Lynas, author of Six Degrees
