In "Feral," George Monbiot embarks on a transformative journey, challenging the confines of conventional environmentalism to uncover a world brimming with restoration and wild enchantment. With a narrative as compelling as the landscapes he traverses, Monbiot reveals the hidden mechanisms of nature that, once understood, offer not just hope but tangible pathways to revitalize the Earth's most damaged ecosystems. From the depths of Europe's ancient forests to the untamed coastlines where dolphins leap, Monbiot seeks the elusive spirit of the wild that promises to rejuvenate our planet and our souls. Through encounters with pioneering conservationists and groundbreaking scientific discoveries, Monbiot illustrates the remarkable resilience of nature and the potential for humans to aid in its recovery. "Feral" is a clarion call to rewild not just the land and sea but our lives, proposing a future where humans reconnect with nature as co-creators of a world where lynx prowl, forests flourish, and seas abound with life. This book is an ode to the wild, a testament to the unexpected beauty and complexity of ecosystems when left to nature's own devices, and a blueprint for a raucous, thriving summer following the silence of ecological neglect.
