Jankéliowitch presents fifty environmental problems and ideas for solving them. Some of her suggestions are commonly known (conserve water, don't litter), while others may make readers think twice about their habits. Dozens of stunning nature photographs from around the world speak louder than the text, which sometimes resorts to histrionics.

Over thirty stunning photos depict features of volcanoes, from pink flamingos on the banks of volcanic Lake Bogoria in Kenya to red-hot lava flows at Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii. An informative paragraph of text accompanies each photo, as does a locator map (regrettably sometimes difficult to read). Four pages sketchily explain volcanoes and describe Bourseiller's technique.
