THE CASE FOR NATURE
A Pioneering Path for a Planet in Crisis
Nature is the answer to both saving our precious world and to successful sustainable economic growth: this book explores how to do it.
We are on the brink of environmental catastrophe. Cutting emissions is essential but won't be enough. We also need to harness the power of nature, recognising that the natural world is not only priceless, but has measurable economic value. Restoring biodiversity aided by technological and financial innovation will unlock environmental protections and economic benefits.
The Case for Nature sets out with powerful clarity how protecting nature is both the right thing to do, and in our economic interests; how, taking a cue from a range of indigenous worldviews, nature must be woven into our modern societies, not set apart. Siddarth Shrikanth introduces the pioneers of the nature-positive revolution, and gives us the tools to understand how we can work with, not against, our living planet.
For readers of Bill Gates' How to Avoid a Climate Disaster, On Fire by Naomi Klein, The Sixth Extinction by Elizabeth Kolbert, Losing Earth: The Decade We Almost Stopped Climate Change by Nathaniel Rich and David Wallace Wells' The Uninhabitable Earth, and fans of Sir David Attenborough.
Siddarth Shrikanth has an MSc in Conservation Biology from the University of Oxford and an MBA from the Harvard/Stanford Kennedy Business School. He has crafted corporate sustainability plans for McKinsey in London and Indonesia, and writes for international outlets including the Financial Times and Canary. He now lives in London and works in green entrepreneurship and investment.
