About this book

Language: French

In a very short span of time, geologically speaking, our species has created "another Earth", significantly different from that which existed before man appeared. The changes that have transformed our planet are now so deep that it threatens the very functioning of the biosphere, de facto putting in danger the future of humanity.

This book aims to allow everyone to understand the characteristics of these ongoing changes on planet earth and their interrelationship with species, including humans. It offers a glossary of 45 selected key words and concepts, all accompanied by several photographs that show these global changes at three levels of organization: the Earth System, wildlife and humans. Going back and forth between text and images of striking beauty allows everyone to build a clear and comprehensive view of the challenges that life faces on this Other Earth.

Summary in French:
En un temps très court à l’échelle géologique, notre espèce a créé « une autre Terre », significativement différente de celle qui existait lorsque l’homme est apparu. Les changements qui ont transformé notre planète sont désormais si profonds qu’ils menacent le fonctionnement même de la biosphère, mettant de facto en danger le futur de l’humanité.

Ce livre a pour objectif de permettre à tout un chacun de comprendre les caractéristiques de ces changements en cours sur la planète Terre et leurs interrelations avec les espèces, y compris l’espèce humaine. Il propose un glossaire choisi de 45 concepts et mots clés, tous accompagnés de plusieurs photographies, qui présentent ces changements globaux à trois niveaux d’organisation différents : le système Terre, les espèces sauvages et les humains. Allers-retours entre textes et images d’une beauté saisissante permettent ainsi à chacun de se construire une vision claire et globale des défis imposés à la vie sur Une Autre Terre.
