Reviews

A game-changer! People are hungry for a plan to reverse ocean death so we can keep breathing!
*Margaret Atwood, Twitter*

I doubt any more important book will be published this year. Charles Clover tells (with spirit and style) an alarming and convincing story, yet it is one that offers hope and a way forward for our beleaguered oceans ... and us.
*Stephen Fry*

[An] optimistic manifesto for change...There are so many stories here of nature's titanic powers - if only we give her a chance - that it's ultimately a genuinely optimistic and energising read
*Sunday Times*

This book is desperately needed. Interest in terrestrial rewilding is rocketing and now it is time for the sea. The material Charles Clover will be covering is rich, urgent and fascinating. There will be so many people who will be desperate to get behind this book.

This uplifting book proves rewilding can fill oceans with teeming life again...powerful...forceful...
*Telegraph*

What if our seas became productive again with giant sturgeon, halibut and skate? What if we let the seas soak up carbon from the atmosphere like the peat bogs instead of battering them with trawls and dredges? It's closer than you think. In fact, as Charles Clover explains, rewilding the sea has already begun.
*George Monbiot*

An important, intriguing and informative book' with 'admirable optimism
*David Profumo, Spectator*

Two deadly problems: the climate crisis and biodiversity collapse. One elegant solution: Rewild the ocean.
*Sylvia Earle*

*Daniel Pauly*
