Wild Nature in the Age of Climate Breakdown

Writer and conservationist Adam Welz will read from his new book, The End of Eden: Wild Nature in the Age of Climate Breakdown, and speak of his reporting about the effects of climate change on wild species and natural ecosystems around the world. A deeply researched exploration of wild species reacting to climate breakdown, The End of Eden offers a radical new kind of environmental journalism that connects humans to nature in a more empathetic way than ever before and galvanizes us to act in defense of the natural world before it’s too late.

His writing on wildlife and environmental issues has appeared in The Atlantic, The Guardian, Yale Environment 360, and other publications around the world.
