SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTIONLONGLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE FOR NON-FICTIONNo matter where we live, 'we are all ocean people,' Helen Scales observes in her bracing yet hopeful exploration of the future of the ocean. Beginning with its fascinating deep history, Scales links past to present to show how prehistoric ocean ecology holds lessons for the ocean of today.

In elegant, evocative prose, she takes us into the realms of animals that epitomize current increasingly challenging conditions, from emperor penguins to sharks and orcas. Yet despite these threats, many hopeful signs remain, in the form of highly protected reserves, the regeneration of seagrass meadows and giant kelp forests and efforts to protect coral reefs.

Offering innovative ideas for protecting coastlines and cleaning the toxic seas, Scales insists we need more ethical and sustainable fisheries and must prevent the other existential threat of deep-sea mining. Inspiring us all to maintain a sense of awe and wonder at the majesty beneath the waves, she urges us to fight for the better future that still exists for the ocean.

Too Much Back, Ain’t Enough Slack
Color: Brown, Size: 36W x 30L
Sadly the color doesn’t quite match the photo—it looks cheaper IRL. However, the form of the pants are cool, but they don’t fit me. TLDR: These pants aren’t for guys with back. Good looking style though.

Color was off. More plum than burgundy
Color: Burgundy, Size: 36W x 32L
The color was more plum than burgundy. I returned them. Not a plum pants kind of guy. I have gotten other colors. I actually love the fit.

Do not trust sizing or measuents
Color: Black, Size: 32W x 30L
Sizing way off. Can barely fit on and no where close to buttoning. Same pant measurements in another pant bought at the same time no problem. Sizing and measurements off.
