Welcome to Litsy!

The last book I had to read for my Frankenstein and climate change class!!!!! This book was much more accessible and easy to read than the tambora book we had to read. I still didn‘t enjoy it (and I didn‘t enjoy the essay I had to write on it) but at least it was better than that. I‘m glad I didn‘t have to read it as summer reading for college tho

The Guardian's long read article by Rebecca Solnit is very concise, calling for more good news stories to combat despair & indifference.

#Cop27 starts tomorrow, here's hoping for some serious changes put in place. If you're interested in learning more about climate change, environmentalism and activism, some of my top books are tagged above and in comments. Please feel free to add your own recommendations.

Interesting insights, but I think there was a bit too much repetition and speculation. Perhaps it would have worked better at essay length rather than book length.

#Amitavghosh explains the impact of global warming in very simple way and with the examples which are very much relatable to the common people's daily life.
Extreme weather events and changing climatic situations of our earth are the major areas of concern and require immediate attention.
Although nothing new has been said by the author but it force us to think seriously about climate change.

Somehow ended up with this book when I went to the library... I was only supposed to be returning books, not borrowing more. Oops. @KarenUK
