Je moet er in New York goed voor zoeken, maar als het je eenmaal opvalt, zie je ze overal: bevers. Je vindt ze op gebouwen van de overheid, muurschilderingen, zelfs op de badge van elke New Yorkse politieagent. Wat doet die bever daar? In een poging het antwoord te vinden komen we terecht bij milieukundige Dr. Joop Varekamp (Wesleyan University, Connecticut). Hij heeft een bijzonder verhaal over mode, syfilis, milieuvervuiling en klimaatverandering, waarbij de invloed van de bever groter is dan gedacht.
