Making Eden: How Plants Transformed a Barren Planet
Beerling, David (Sorby Professor of Natural Sciences, and Director of the Leverhulme Centre for Climate Change Mitigation, University of Sheffield)
Plants are absolutely fundamental to the functioning of life on earth. But how did the earliest plants first emerge from water and conquer the continents? Using the latest research, David Beerling tells their evolutionary story. And, as we face catastrophic loss of biodiversity, he highlights the profound effect they have on ecosystems and climate.
