    Oceaan

    Onze laatste wildernis

    Als je eenmaal de oceaan écht hebt ontdekt, zul je nooit meer hetzelfde naar de aarde kijken. Sir David AttenboroughNiemand heeft meer van de wereld gezien dan Sir David Attenborough, de grootste natuurhistorische journalist van onze tijd. Als filmmaker en bioloog verkende hij een groot deel van de oceanen van ijskoude pooloceanen tot afgelegen koraaleilanden.Nu brengt Attenborough, samen met Colin Butfield, een pleidooi uit voor het herstel van de oceanen. Zijn boodschap: als we nu actie ondernemen, kunnen we de wereld nog redden.De oceaan is de meest onontdekte habitat op onze planeet, en onze laatste echte wildernis. Hij vormt het land, reguleert ons klimaat en creëert de lucht die we inademen. De afgelopen decennia heeft Attenborough de oceaan zien veranderen, koraal zien uitsterven en het klimaat zien verslechteren.In Oceaan deelt hij aan de hand van persoonlijke verhalen, de geschiedenis en baanbrekend wetenschappelijk onderzoek waarom de oceaan nou zo wonderbaarlijk, fragiel en bijzonder veerkrachtig is hij is het deel van onze planeet dat het snelst kan herstellen. Tijdens ons leven kunnen we maritiem leven zien dat nog spectaculairder is dan we ooit durfden te dromen. Tenminste, als we nu actie ondernemen…

    Avventure di un giovane naturalista

    David Attenborough - l'uomo che diventerà il più celebre e autorevole divulgatore scientifico britannico, nonché una delle voci più appassionate che abbiano mai raccontato le meraviglie della natura - all'inizio era soltanto un giovane produttore BBC con una laurea in zoologia e un'idea audace: trovare un modo nuovo di raccontare gli animali. È il 1954 e le trasmissioni dedicate alla fauna si dividono tra quelle del direttore dello zoo di Londra che, ogni settimana, trasporta negli studi televisivi le creature più mansuete (con incognite talvolta incresciose), e documentari che mostrano monotone e ininterrotte riprese delle specie nel loro habitat naturale. Attenborough capisce che in entrambi i format manca qualcosa: la vita vera, l'imprevisto, il rischio. Nasce così Zoo Quest, una serie destinata a rivoluzionare il mondo della divulgazione naturalistica. Dalla foresta pluviale della Sierra Leone, dove un uccello dal nome evocativo - il picatarte collobianco - diventa oggetto di una ricerca ostinata, alle savane della Guyana, tra vaqueros e caimani, fino alle isole dell'Indonesia in cerca del feroce drago di Komodo, ogni capitolo è un'avventura costruita sul filo dell'improvvisazione, dell'ingegno e di una buona dose di incoscienza. Nel 2026 Sir David Attenborough ha compiuto un secolo, e questo memoir racconta gli esordi di una folgorante carriera che dura da sette decenni, trascorsa a esplorare e documentare la ricchezza della vita animale e vegetale sulla Terra, e a cambiare per sempre il nostro modo di guardarla.

    I segreti del mare. Misteri sommersi e meraviglie nascoste nelle profondità dell'oceano

    Misteri sommersi e meraviglie nascoste nelle profondità dell'oceano Dai mari ghiacciati dei poli alle più spettacolari isole di corallo, nella sua lunga carriera di documentarista David Attenborough ha filmato tutti i più incredibili e remoti habitat oceanici del pianeta Terra. In questo libro scritto con Colin Butfield e corredato da un inserto di immagini a colori, Attenborough ci guida alla scoperta delle profondità marine, l'ultima grande frontiera selvaggia del pianeta, che regola il clima sulla Terra e produce l'ossigeno che respiriamo. Potremo immergerci in otto habitat marini unici e sorprendenti, nuotare tra foreste di alghe, mangrovie e barriere coralline, scendere a 3000 metri di profondità, incontrare tartarughe verdi e balenottere azzurre, pesci pagliaccio e meduse bioluminescenti, squali giganti, calamari vampiro e "polli senza testa". E scopriremo che gli oceani sono ancora l'ecosistema più inesplorato della Terra: un mondo disperatamente fragile e al tempo stesso resistente, grazie alla sua straordinaria capacità di riparare i danni subiti. Il mare è ancor più ricco e spettacolare di quanto possiamo immaginare, e, se lo sapremo conservare, rappresenta anche una delle grandi speranze per il nostro futuro e quello del pianeta.
