Taking forward the work of a brilliant new group of Earth-system scientists who have mapped out real planetary boundaries, Lynas draws a radical manifesto calling for the increased use of environmentally friendly technologies like genetic engineering and nuclear power as part of a global effort to use humanity's best tools to protect and nurture the biosphere.
