«La tierra herida» is the dialogic essay on climate change by Miguel Delibes and Miguel Delibes de Castro, published by Ediciones Destino in hardcover (176 pages, in Spanish).
Father and son, a writer and a scientist, converse about climate change and the degradation of the planet: the weakening of the ozone layer, the greenhouse effect, the melting of the poles, desertification and the disappearance of species. The dialogue asks whether humanity is responsible for these changes and whether we still have time to halt them or mitigate their effects, reviewing ecological problems and the possibilities for action.
The title belongs to the Imago Mundi collection of Ediciones Destino. The work was originally published in 2005 and this edition is from 2006.
Recommended for readers interested in the environment and in the dialogue between literary creation and scientific dissemination.
