A Warning from the Golden Toad - Tim Flannery

A Warning from the Golden Toad by acclaimed environmental scientist Tim Flannery is a concise and urgent reflection on the climate crisis and its irreversible impact on the natural world. Named after the extinct Golden Toad of Costa Rica, the book uses this symbolic loss to illustrate the broader consequences of unchecked environmental degradation. Through accessible scientific commentary and compelling examples, Flannery guides readers across global ecosystems - from melting polar regions and disappearing coral reefs to shrinking rainforests and warming deserts. He reveals how human activity is altering the Earth’s climate at an unprecedented rate and warns of the long-term consequences for biodiversity and humanity itself. Part of the Penguin Green Ideas series, this short but powerful book is a call to action. It challenges readers to rethink their relationship with nature and underscores the urgency of climate awareness, environmental responsibility, and global cooperation. Rayonnage : A10.
