Master photographer and Global Green member, Sebastian Copeland, issues a global clarion call for decisive measures to counteract global warming in his latest book Antarctica: A Call to Action, the sequel to his bestselling Antarctica: The Global Warning. Copeland’s awe-inspiring images of the frozen continent capture the beauty of the glaciers, biodiversity, and wild wide seas of the Drake Passage.

Along with exceptional new photographs,Antarctica: A Call To Action is a concise and visually compelling discussion about global warming with a hopeful and helpful new take: each of us can make a positive difference through small changes. With insightful commentary, the purity of undoctored photographs and “takeaways” provide readers with simple lifestyle changes to help preserve Antarctica’s fragile ecosystem. A highly accessible and hopeful book, Antarctica: A Call to Action will awe readers and inspire everyone to save this magnificent continent for future generations.

“Copeland’s magnificent book is a testament to what we all can do to make a positive difference in the world. A brilliant, beautiful, and highly effective wake-up call.”

-Phil Cousineau
