520    Rainforests have long been recognized as hotspots of 
       biodiversity--but they are crucial for our planet in other
       surprising ways. Not only do these fascinating ecosystems 
       thrive in rainy regions, they create rain themselves, and 
       this moisture is spread around the globe. Rainforests 
       across the world have a powerful and concrete impact, 
       reaching as far as America's Great Plains and central 
       Europe. In Rainforest: Dispatches from Earth's Most Vital 
       Frontlines, a prominent conservationist provides a 
       comprehensive view of the crucial roles rainforests serve,
       the state of the world's rainforests today, and the 
       inspirational efforts underway to save them. In Rainforest,
       Tony Juniper draws upon decades of work in rainforest 
       conservation. He brings readers along on his journeys, 
       from the thriving forests of Costa Rica to Indonesia, 
       where palm oil plantations have supplanted much of the 
       former rainforest. Despite many ominous trends, Juniper 
       sees hope for rainforests and those who rely upon them, 
       thanks to developments like new international agreements, 
       corporate deforestation policies, and movements from local
       and Indigenous communities. As climate change intensifies,
       we have already begun to see the effects of rainforest 
       destruction on the planet at large. Rainforest provides a 
       detailed and wide-ranging look at the health and future of
       these vital ecosystems. Throughout this evocative book, 
       Juniper argues that in saving rainforests, we save 
       ourselves, too.
