The Amazon is burning because we are not good stewards of the land. The seas and oceans are becoming depleted of life because we are not good stewards of them. The air we breathe is becoming polluted because we are not good stewards of the air. In the past 540 million years it has been estimated that there have been five major extinctions when over 50% of animal species died. Humans have been indiscriminately and arrogantly consuming the Earth's life sustaining habitats for the past 150 years or so and it is time to pay the Earth back.

Autorenporträt
The Price of Leaving Eden poses the question of whether to follow the laws of nature or follow our hearts and desires for freedom. It would seem easy to follow our hearts and desires but we are prisoners of the natural world and the laws if physics. It is presented that we are following our hearts and desires but, in the end, will be causing our own demise. Building monuments and wallowing in our glories is nature's way of fulfilling its ultimate destiny. A destiny that is in conflict with the author's hopes and desires for the protection and promotion of life on Earth.
