A blueprint for how to rewild the world around us from two of the world's pioneers of wilding. The enormity of climate change and biodiversity loss can leave us feeling overwhelmed. Nature can bounce back if you give it a chance. Not just wildlife in super-abundance, but solutions to the other environmental crises we face. Tree and Burrell provide a pragmatic handbook for how we can all help restore nature, grown out of their pioneering project in Sussex. -- adapted from back cover
