Blue Planet Run Book Most Likely to Save the Planet
Earth Aware Editions and the Blue Planet Run Foundation are thrilled to accept the IPPY Gold Award for Blue Planet Run: Racing to Provide Safe Drinking Water to the World in the category of "Most Likely to Save the Planet." The Independent Publishers Awards attracted 3,175 total entries.
Blue Planet Run provides an extraordinary look at the water problems facing humanity and some of the hopeful solutions being pursued by individuals and organizations around the world. The book is designed to be a wake-up call to the world, sounding both a warning and a note of hope, letting us know that there is still time to solve this problem if we act now, before it is too late.
Blue Planet Run is two books in one: It is a showcase of powerful, inspiring, disturbing and hopeful images. For one month, 40 talented photojournalists crossed the globe taking photographs to show the extent of the problem. At the same time, a team of researchers contacted photographers on every continent to identify existing bodies of work focused on this crucial issue. The book also documents the 2007 Blue Planet Run Epic Event, an inspiring 15,000-mile relay race— the longest relay race in human history—in which 20 athletes spent 95 days running around the globe to spread awareness of the global water crisis.
In addition to the world class photographs, this book includes essays from a passionate group of writers, environmentalists, inventors and journalists including Robert Redford, Diane Ackerman, Fred Pearce, Bill McKibben, Jeffrey Rothfeder, Michael Specter, Dean Kamen, Michael Malone, Paul Hawken, and Mike Cerre.
The authors are Rick Smolan and Jennifer Erwitt. Rick is a former Time, Life and National Geographic photographer best known as the creator of the Day in the Life book series. He and his partner, Jennifer Erwitt, are the principals of Against All Odds Productions, based in Sausalito, California. Fortune Magazine featured Against All Odds as "One of the 25 Coolest Companies in America." Their global photography projects combine creative storytelling with state-of-the-art technology.

If you have received most of
If you have received most of your information about global warming from the popular media, you will be very surprised or even shocked by the information Klaus provides. The existence of so many scientific and economic reasons to doubt the conclusions of the climate alarmists and reject their efforts to control or even "un-develop" modern societies is never publicly discussed. Klaus catalogs these reasons.

The book is a thing of
The book is a thing of beauty. The photography of authors Rick Smolan and Jennifer Erwitt will open as many eyes to the water cirisis as the facts that accompany the images. Throw in brilliant essays by leading experts like Bill McKibben, Diane Ackerman, and Paul Hawken and charts, graphs, and statistics that are as shocking as they are motivating and you have a book that, as the Independent Publishers stated, just may “save the planet”.
