Este es un escrito franco, sencillo y profundo, cuya lectura la facilita el estilo próximo, coloquial y amistoso con el que el autor nos acerca a un tema trascendental, como es la necesidad de preservación de nuestro mundo, del único que tenemos. Lo hace desde la intimidad de la tierra misionera, el lugar que lo albergó y que el acogió como propio, donde la vida y la naturaleza se manifiestan con tal pujanza y desenfreno que no permiten mirar para otro lado a la hora de preservarla. “Green is more” o “verde es mejor” son las palabras que elije para contagiarnos el amor por el planeta, que no admite desmayos ni claudicaciones. Es un texto que habla del futuro, actúa en el presente y abreva en la cultura del pasado, desde la cual señala algunos referentes que nos muestran el espejo desde donde mirar hacia adelante.

One hundred years ago, the world celebrated the opening of the Panama Canal, which connected the world’s two largest oceans and signaled America’s emergence as a global superpower. It was a miracle, this path of water where a mountain had stood—and creating a miracle is no easy thing. Thousands lost their lives, and those who survived worked under the harshest conditions for only a few silver coins a day. From the young "silver people" whose back-breaking labor built the Canal to the denizens of the endangered rainforest itself, this is the story of one of the largest and most difficult engineering projects ever undertaken, as only Newbery Honor-winning author Margarita Engle could tell it.
On cover: "Why did reform in Santiago improve water system performance, when similar reform attempts under public management in other countries failed?"
