Published to mark the 25th anniversary of the Friends of the EarthPromising the Earthpaints the inside story of a pioneering environmental campaign upon a broader social canvas. While no single organization's history or accomplishments can fairly represent the growth of environmental consciousness, this narrative bears intimate witness to a fascinating and rewarding story which is still unfolding. Enlivened by arresting illustrations and glimpses of colorful personalities brought to light through the ongoing environmental debate,Promising the Earthtakes stock of changing realities in and attitudes to environmental care over the past twenty-five years. Author Roger Lamb uses this chronicle as a platform from which to survey the future which awaits our environment in the 21st century.
