Review This Product
A statement of the Bahá’í International Community. This statement presents a thought-provoking reading of the root causes of escalating environmental breakdown and highlights principles and proposals for action that draw on experiences over many decades of work. Some of the themes explored include: the essential principle of humanity’s oneness as the only foundation on which sustainable societies can be raised; justice as process and outcome; consultation and fostering consensus in action; and redefining notions of progress and development.

Richard St. Barbe Baker dedicated his life to planting trees all over the world to help cool our overheated environment. He was called “the world’s greatest conservationist” and was a pioneer in protecting the world’s forests, creating sustainable forestry methods, and educating people about the importance of planting trees. He was the founder of the Men of the Trees, the first international Environmental Non-Governmental Organization, known as the International Tree Foundation today. He was a world traveler who taught people everywhere about environmentalism, and who stood up against racial discrimination and worked to empower local populations wherever he went. Richard St. Barbe Baker was a “Change Maker” who left an enduring legacy on the world.

Review This Product
Richard St. Barbe Baker was an inspirational visionary and pioneering environmentalist who is credited with saving and planting billions of trees. He saved lives, too, through his ceaseless global campaign to raise the alarm about deforestation and desertification and by finding effective, culturally sensitive ways for people to contribute to a more peaceful and greener world. Richard was a Bahá’í and met the Guardian during his visit to the Holy Land in 1929. Shoghi Effendi became a lifetime member of St. Barbe Baker’s environmental organization, Men of the Trees (later renamed International Tree Foundation), and they continued to correspond with each other through letters over the course of many years. With a foreword by Prince Charles of Wales and an introduction by Jane Goodall, this biography is sure to inspire environmentally-conscious readers everywhere.
