Saving planet Earth : what is destroying the Earth and what you can do to help

The book of the major BBC1 TV series which will be the TV event of 2007.

Combining stunning images, with ways you can help to save it for future generations and introduced by Sir David Attenborough. Saving Planet Earth is the BBC's follow-up to the multi award winning, international bestseller Planet Earth.

The new 11 part BBC 1 series, plus a three hour special, will show what is happening to the fantastic animals and plants you saw in Planet Earth, why they are threatened (as nearly all of them are) and, perhaps most importantly, what you can do to prevent their destruction. Each chapter will look at one of the major reasons that is causing the disappearance of the earth's natural beauty (fishing, deforestation, pollution etc) and will look at the major ways that they can be stopped.

The BBC has also shortlisted charities who are currently actively helping to prevent this destruction and all the money raised during the series will be donated to these charities.
