Svijet prirode - Vodič za povratak prirodi

Gerald Durrell, Lee Durrell

An inspiring guide that promotes nature conservation and the connection between humans and the environment. The work is a mix of personal experiences, scientific facts, and practical advice for living in harmony with nature.

Gerald, a renowned naturalist and author, and his wife Lee guide readers through the richness of the natural world, highlighting the importance of biodiversity and the need to conserve it.

The authors describe a variety of ecosystems – from rainforests and wetlands to deserts and oceans – highlighting their role in the global ecosystem and threats such as deforestation, pollution and climate change. They focus particularly on endangered species, sharing stories of animals that Gerald and his team have saved through their work at the Jersey Zoo and the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust.

The book offers practical suggestions for getting back to nature, such as reducing your ecological footprint, promoting sustainable living and getting involved in local environmental initiatives. The Durrells encourage readers to observe nature, learn about plants and animals and take an active role in their conservation. Through warmth and humour, Gerald’s anecdotes of expeditions and encounters with wildlife make the book accessible and motivating.

The World of Nature is not just a guide, but also a call to action to preserve the planet, addressed to all who want to live in harmony with nature.
