An incredible army, both picturesque and troubled, featuring several of the best Italian satirists and comic-book writers, reflects on the state of our planet: 150 plates discuss everything related to the environmental protection of our world, with all of the determination of artists "able to tell the true story of the reality around us, who go beyond appearances, even at the cost of slightly forcing the forecasts of a planet in collapse, imagining an imminent future in which air will be a miracle and flowers just a memory of a lost world, sunk in a sea of filth, waste, slag, gas and indifference", as the editor Claudio Colombo writes. The book hits its target in the bull's eye because "satire and comic-books", writes Ermete Realacci in the presentation, "are able to capture and reduce stories to a manageable size that we might otherwise be unaware of, and to highlight contradictions that habit has made us blind to".
The hope of the book is that a new form of presentation – one appreciated by the young – can bring the theme of the environment closer to the reader and stimulate new commitment for an ecologically sustainable future. The book is aimed at a broad public, young and adult, those who have a particular penchant for comic books, satire and social commitment.
