The book is a collection of essays and poems on climate change, offering a comprehensive look at the issues and solutions. It is informative and inspiring, but may be too in-depth for casual readers.

This book is a collection of essays and poems that delve into the complexities of climate change. It provides a detailed look at the issues and potential solutions, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the topic. However, it may be too in-depth for casual readers, as it sometimes feels like reading a textbook. The audiobook version, narrated by a cast of actors, is a great alternative for those who prefer listening. The essays and poems are written by women, many from indigenous or minority communities, and offer a unique perspective on the climate crisis. The book is divided into eight sections, each focusing on a different aspect of climate change. While some essays may be repetitive or contradictory, they offer a more holistic view of the challenges. The audiobook is particularly well-done, with a cast of actors and audiobook all-stars bringing heart to the essays they read.


Quick quotes

    There is no single answer. There is no simple solution. But there is hope and time to make a difference, although that window narrows by the day.

    If you’re interested in reading this but think a 400+-page commitment is too much, the audiobook is your way to go.

    A special shout out to Sophia Bush, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Alfre Woodward for bringing a lot of heart to the essays they read.
