In our insatiable pursuit of economic growth, modern civilisation has upended the planet; our relentless extraction of resources has created environmental and social carnage. Yet, within the same landscapes experiencing the ruins of extraction, radical alternatives are emerging. Discussing his incisive new book, The Vanishing Earth, acclaimed historian, writer, and BBC Radio 4’s Take Four Books presenter James Crawford exposes the cost of endless growth on our planet and the essential actions that could save it. Chaired by Cal Flyn.
