"One Planet Many People Atlas of Our Changing Environment clearly illustrates that
our ozonosphere has been threatened by human activities. It also shows that this problem has
been practically solved due to the collaborative efforts of the different sectors of our
society. We all need to work together to address the many other problems that affect the
health of our planet. As illustrated in this atlas, we need integrated, interdisciplinary
approaches to mitigate the adverse effects of human-induced activities on the environment".
Mario J. Molina
Co-winner of the 1995 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work
in atmospheric chemistry, particularly
concerning the formation and decomposition of ozone.
Institute Professor, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
"One Planet Many People Atlas of Our Changing Environment shows us our home as it
really is, not only where it is now but where it has been. It becomes quite evident that we have
had a huge and largely negative effect on the rest of life of earth -- the biodiversity with which
our well-being is intricately tied both directly and indirectly. The atlas provides an
indispensable guide for a better future for humanity through maintenance of the splendor
and magnificence of biodiversity".
Thomas E. Lovejoy
President of H. John Heinz III Center for Science

"I go through on it and realized that this may be the best publication I might
have seen in my entire life. So great, so wonderful, so outstanding, ...This will
be an asset for all people in the globe who care about the mother earth."
Medini Bhandari
Founder of the Association for Protection of Environment
and Culture (APEC-Nepal)
"One Planet Many People - what an outstanding publication!
Aesthetics, Science, and Message; this book has it all:
• First impression: interesting and beautiful pictures,
intriguing maps and time sequences, and informative charts and graphs.
• Next impression: a thorough documentation of the nature and extent
of the many ways humans have impacted our planet.
• Lasting impression: our planet is beautiful, fragile,
to a limited degree self healing, but very dependent on our intelligent
habitation for our well being and, eventually, our survival."
