The International League of Conservation Photographers in association with Conservation International and the CEMEX Conservation Book Series proudly announced the publication of this large-format illustrated book in the fall of 2008.

With a foreword co-authored by eminent Harvard biologist E.O. Wilson and actor Harrison Ford, and a comprehensive introduction by Conservation International scientists led by president Russell A. Mittermeier, A Climate for Life examines the enormous impact of climate change on biodiversity and focuses on how nature itself might provide some of the solutions to this challenge. A lavishly produced volume, A Climate for Life celebrates the diversity of life on Earth, and is a call to action and a blueprint to preserve it.

Authors: Russell A. Mittermeier, Michael Totten, Laura Ledwith Pennypacker, Frederick Boltz, Cristina G. Mittermeier, Guy Midgley, Carlos Manuel Rodriguez, Glenn Prickett, Claude Gascon, Peter A. Seligmann, and Olivier Langrand.
