The Human Planet is a visual report on the state of the Earth today from a photographer who has surveyed the globe to report on such urgent issues as climate change, agriculture, and engineering for change. George Steinmetz is at home on every continent, chronicling the human project that relentlessly redesigns the planet in its quest to build shelter, grow food, extract resources, generate energy, and create beauty through art and architecture. In his images, accompanied by authoritative text by renowned science writer Andrew Revkin, we are encountering the dramatic and perplexing new face of our ancient home.
The next entry in National Geographic's iconic line of large-format photo books will immortalize the beauty of the great outdoors, showcasing evocative, and often unseen, images of extraordinary landscapes from around the world.
Do you know where your food comes from? To find out, acclaimed photojournalist George Steinmetz spent a decade traveling to over 30 countries and 24 US states documenting global food systems. In striking aerial photographs, he captures the awesome scale of 21st-century agriculture that has sculpted 40 percent of the Earth's landmass. He explores the farming of staples like wheat and rice, the cultivation of vegetables and fruits, fishing and aquaculture, and meat production, in situations ranging from traditional farms in diverse cultures to vast agribusinesses, on every continent except Antarctica.
