Fred Pearce

Fred Pearce, author of the new book The Land Grabbers: The New Fight over Who Owns the Earth, reports on how food shortages and price spikes are leading speculators and agribusiness interests to buy up vast tracts of land around the globe.

Some say the global population is crashing. Fred Pearce, author of the new book The Coming Population Crash: and Our Planet's Surprising Future, examines why populations change and shift.

In With Speed and Violence, environmental journalist Fred Pearce argues that climate change has never been a gradual process, and that even small changes could have catastrophic consequences.
