Paradise Lost - Michael James Elves

. .

Résumé :
The purpose of this book is hopefully to make people aware of the future of this wonderful planet of ours. Yannis Vadakastanis is a man that was born on the Greek island of Zakynthos and at a young age became aware of the plight of the loggerhead turtles better known locally as caretta caretta. He then decided to try and help these wonderful animals that were here before the dinosaurs. For the last thirty years plus he has been building a centre in Gerakas Zakynthos, but this book is not just about him, it is about the wildlife, flora and fauna that live on this island that are struggling to survive now that tourism is deeply rooted on the island. the problem with discarded rubbish, not just here is a massive worrying problem all over the planet and should be a concern for everybody that lives on it! The greed for money and profit are guilty of destroying wildlife faster than we can ever imagine. Just think of the Amazon forests that are being destroyed daily and not forgetting the lust for palm oil. Every living thing has the absolute right to live peacefully and safely on this planet, not just us. We can and should all live in harmony, nature has no problem taking care of its own, so what gives us the right to decide that we can destroy the planet. We are the only species on this earth that seem to think that we have the right to do so, and we are the only ones that can save it. if we decide to ignore it, then there will be nothing for the future. I hope that if after reading this book it will help you realise that this is not fiction but fact. It's up to us, do you really want a paradise lost. The author Michael james Elves...
