Summary:
"Eco Africa: An Anthology of Poems is a magnificent collection of poems from across the African continent (Eastern, Western, Central, and Southern Africa) with various contributions from some African poets in the Diaspora. There are poems on nature such as its beauty and clean air, on potential consequences of climate change, notably global warming, and the potentially devastating effects of drought, floods and hunger. There is uncertainty and hence fear and hope. The verses shed streaks of light on the contemporary concerns about pollution, its impacts on humanity and the earth's flora and fauna. However, even with the gloom and doom, the artists offer pointers to remedies! Will humanity hearken? Loaded with vivid descriptions, suspense, and free expression, the works herein make it hard for the reader to place the book down even after reading the last word!"--Back cover.
