O etnógrafo Wade Davis explora lugares recônditos ao redor do mundo — mas nesta pequena palestra marcante, ele incita-nos a salvar um paraíso no seu "quintal", na região norte do Canadá. As Sacred Headwaters [Nascentes Sagradas], remotas e puras, estão sob ameaça por ocultarem preciosas areias betuminosas. Com fotos estonteantes, David faz-nos uma pergunta difícil: Como podemos equilibrar a necessidade de combustíveis da sociedade, com a necessidade de proteger uma região selvagem tão gloriosa?

A National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, he has been described as “a rare combination of scientist, scholar, poet and passionate defender of all of life’s diversity.” Full bio »
