Synopsis

Defenders of the Earth fight against evil for the preservation of the environment and humanity which is an ongoing journey. As awareness of how best to preserve the environment the positives that must be taken increase, creating a virtuous circle of hope for a future where the forces of good will triumph over evil.

Equally, it is imperative that we continue to support those on the frontlines of this battle so that future generations can inherit a healthy and sustainable planet. Ultimately, it is our collective responsibility to protect our common home by ensuring that the fight between good and evil is won for all generations to come.

The book Defenders of the Earth shows the arduous struggle between good and evil for the fate of our planet, being a narrative that has been told through various cultures and mythologies throughout history. Today, this struggle is symbolized by the conflict between sustainable practices that the world needs to adopt, which aim to preserve the environment and protect life on Earth, and destructive behaviors caused by destroyers, such as rampant pollution, irresponsible exploitation of natural resources, and climate change.

Heroically, those who stand up for good, work hard to raise awareness of environmental issues, develop green technologies, conserve vital ecosystems, and adopt more eco-friendly lifestyles. Working diametrically opposite to the previous idea, the forces of evil represent selfish interests, profit at any cost, and neglect the destructive consequences of their actions. To save the planet, it is essential that society as a whole unites for good, adopting practices and policies that protect our environment, promote social justice, and ensure a sustainable future for generations to come. This fight requires global cooperation, ongoing education, and a fundamental shift in the way we value and preserve our common home, Earth.

Finally, to save the environment and humanity, it is crucial to adopt sustainable practices in our daily lives, to reduce plastic consumption, save water, plant trees, adopt a more sustainable diet with less meat, support renewable energy and educate others about the importance of environmental conservation. In addition, pushing governments and businesses to adopt environmentally responsible policies and practices is key to creating large-scale change.

João Calazans Filho

João Calazans Filho is one of the most significant voices in contemporary Brazilian and global literature. A writer, chronicler, and passionate advocate for the Portuguese language, his work has become a cornerstone of 21st-century Ibero-American literature. With 61 books published, translated into 14 languages, and distributed in over 160 countries, Calazans Filho has achieved a rare level of international recognition, standing as one of the most widely read and respected authors of our time.

Born in Salvador, Bahia, João Calazans Filho weaves into his writing the colors, rhythms, and silences of the Brazilian Northeast. Yet his journey has also been shaped by a diverse cultural path, with his first books written between São Paulo and Spain—spaces that deeply influenced his artistic vision and expanded his narrative scope. With powerful novels, poignant chronicles, and soul-stirring poetry, Calazans has created a body of work that bridges continents while always maintaining a profoundly human, critical, and sensitive voice.

His stories explore the complexities of everyday life, social conflict, spirituality, urban violence, and hope as an act of resistance. Through vivid characters and narratives that move between realism and the symbolic, his literature speaks to universal themes with richness, accessibility, and emotional depth. The result is writing that moves, challenges, and transforms.

Throughout his career, João Calazans Filho has also stood out for his cultural commitment. A tireless advocate for reading and emerging writers, he leads literary projects, fosters public debates, and promotes initiatives that highlight the value of Brazilian culture. His dedication to the Portuguese language has taken him to literary conferences, book fairs, and academic institutions across Brazil and abroad, reaffirming literature as a tool for both identity and freedom.

Returning to Spain at various points in his career—with novels that resonate across both Latin America and Europe—Calazans is today celebrated as a true Ibero-American author, acclaimed by readers and critics around the globe.

João Calazans Filho is, without a doubt, a leading figure in Brazilian and world literature. His work reflects not only the soul of a people, but also the spirit of an era. An era in which voices like his—bold, human, and honest—remind us that words, when born of struggle and heart, can cross oceans and endure forever.
