When it comes to the natural world, Australia is home to a disproportionately large share of the world's riches. That means we Australians are caretakers of a unique natural heritage in a land which tolerates few mistakes. So how are we doing? In Quarterly Essay 48 Tim Flannery says: we're often failing nature. In the clash between money and conservation, money usually wins.

Story0
The Galápagos archipelago is often viewed as a last foothold of pristine nature. For 60 years, conservationists have worked to restore this evolutionary Eden after centuries of exploitation at the hands of pirates, whalers, and island settlers. This book tells the story of the islands' namesakes - the giant tortoises - as coveted food sources, objects of natural history, and famous icons of conservation and tourism. By doing so, it brings into stark relief the paradoxical, and impossible, goal of conserving species by trying to restore a past state of prehistoric evolution.

Story0
In The Golden Toad, Trevor and Kyle set off to investigate an environmental mystery with unexpected revelations, a story that speaks to our own collective and uncertain future. Guided by Costa Rican naturalists—including the last person to have seen the golden toad alive—Trevor searches for survivors while Kyle hunts the killer, and their paths lead them through an imperiled forest, a deadly pandemic, and a changing climate, intertwining at the site of the golden toad's last emergence deep in Monteverde's Bosque Eterno de Los Niños.

Das Artensterben läuft, doch viele Tiere haben Strategien zum Überleben entdeckt. Ob etwa Quallen, die Atomkraftwerke lahm legen; Krähen, die Fensterdichtungen heraushacken; Elefanten, die sich in Gangsterbanden organisieren; oder Straßenhunde, die mit der U-Bahn zu ihrer Arbeit als Wegelagerer fahren - die Tierwelt schlägt zurück, und manche Menschen fühlen sich bedroht.

Story0
The last decade has seen an explosion of urban beekeeping in the US, Canada, and Europe, a well-intentioned response to perceived threats to the global honey bee population. Many thousands of people have taken up this seemingly environmentally friendly hobby, tending backyard and rooftop hives (or paying a company to do so) and encouraging honey bees to make honey and pollinate flowers. What could be wrong with that? Quite a lot, in fact. In The Honey Trap, scientist and author Dana Church demonstrates that despite reports to the contrary, honey bees are nowhere near extinction.

YUCK is a prismatic collage, a poetic wandering, a compact history of the West as twisted and weird and ominous and beautiful as the plant it obsesses over. From divine providence to gaseous landfill to Instagram paradise, Yuck deftly traces the modern history of a small patch of desert to leave us with a big warning about America's demented relationship with the land.

Story1
Most plants can’t survive the demands of “wet feet.” Usually, too much water causes them to wilt and virtually “meltdown,” as they become bloated and soggy. But there are a few hardy plants that know exactly how to deal with this problem—in fact wetland grasses, sedges, rushes, mosses, ferns, horsetails were the first plants to evolve on Earth and are, indeed, the ancestors of the garden trees, bushes, and flowers that we grow today.
