The Last Tree on Easter Island - Jared Diamond
This is Jared Diamond's viseral account of visiting the mysterious stone statues of Easter Island, showing how a remote civilization destroyed itself by exploiting its own natural resources - and why we must listen to this warning. Taken from his mush larger work Collapse, it's a tad academic but well researched and alarming enough to be a call to action.
