Publisher's Synopsis
When Kinari Webb first travelled to Indonesian Borneo at 21, she was both awestruck by the beauty of her surroundings and heartbroken by the rainforest destruction she witnessed. As she got to know the local communities, she realised that their need to pay for expensive health care led directly to rampant logging, which in turn imperilled their health and safety further. After medical school, Dr Webb returned to Borneo, where she and her non-profit teams partnered with the local communities to find solutions to both protect the rainforests and improve their lives. But a near-fatal box jellyfish sting forced Dr Webb to spend the next four years fighting for her life - a fight that would lead her to rethink everything. Was she ready to expand her work to a global scale, confronting climate change head-on?
