I am so proud and pleased and my publisher, Simon & Schuster, not only published Naomi Kleins book on climate change, but also this by the wonderful E. O. Wilson wherein he nails the global picture in this story about a nature preserve: As many as 7,000 subsistence farmers and woodcutters live on the mountain’s lower slopes, and they are among the world’s poorest people. In the short time since the civil war ended, they have cut down more than half the rain forest. If in their desperation they proceed to clear-cut the rest of their sacred mountain, they will lose everything they have: their livelihoods, their wildlife, their soil, even their rain. If they help to save it, their children will inherit a global treasure.
