About this Event
Hillary Rosner will speak about and sign her new book, Roam: Wild Animals and the Race to Repair Their Fractured World, on Wednesday, October 15th at 6:30pm, at Boulder Bookstore.
About the Book:
What if saving our home planet starts with giving other species space to roam? How can we re-shape our human-built landscapes to serve both people and wildlife? These are the questions that Hillary Rosner attempts to answer in Roam, an urgent quest to figure out how to stitch our fragmented planet back together.
Humans have always altered the landscapes around us; in some ways it's part of what defines us as a species. But since the middle of the last century, we've changed the Earth on an overwhelming scale. Roam illustrates a massive and underreported problem: how a completely human-centered view of the world has impacted the ability of other species to move around. But it's also about solutions, and hope: How we can forge new links between landscapes that have become isolated pieces, build a world in which humans recognize their interconnectedness with the rest of the planet, and view other species with empathy and compassion.
