Synopsis

From the bestselling author and photographer of Earth from Above, which has sold millions of copies worldwide, comes Freshwater, a stunning photography book that unveils the secrets of an invisible world, where every freshwater river, lake, and stream has a story to tell.

Earth from Above author and photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand is back with another heartfelt call to save our planet-only this time, he is raising awareness for the freshwater that makes up the a large amount of Earth’s surface.

With biophysicist, naturalist, and writer Bill François working alongside him, the duo explore the world through the lens of our freshwater systems, a fundamental yet largely overlooked element essential for life on Earth.

Filled with Arthus-Bertrand’s classic aerial photography that has sold over 2 million copies, Freshwater demonstrates freshwater’s creation at the high mountain tops of ice-cold glaciers to its flow through Mexican cenotes, Balkan caves, the American Great Lakes, the Parisian Seine, and more.

This gorgeous coffee table book not only shows off Earth’s beauty, but also explores we are destroying it. Due to overfishing, pollutants, mismanagement, climate change, and other largely human-made issues, we are ridding the world of an important resource. However, through sustainable, global action, we can bring back the biodiversity in our waterways, allowing plant, animal, and human life to flourish.
