I had absolutely no idea this post-apocalyptic read would be so damn good. I‘d never read Winton before and he is an incredible storyteller.

I liked that this book looked at climate change from more of a non-western point of view that I usually see. I also appreciated the comparison between Pope Francis‘ Laudato si‘ and the Paris Climate Accord. #Naturalitsy @AllDebooks #NonfictionNovember

AllDebooks It was good to see a different perspective. 1w

The idea for Frankenstein came to Shelley during a ghost story competition with her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, and John Polidori during the cold summer of 1816. #TodayILearned #NFN

"One molecule of carbon dioxide. Small quiet insignificant."
A book about how one person can make a difference and climate change. I think we'll read this before or next day of service.

Silent Spring | Rachel Carson
post image

I lived in lofts (literally named The Library Lofts) shortly after the downtown KC library opened with its now famous wall of book spines. My apartment was a mere block away, so needless to say I spent a lot of time there. I have since read a few of the selected books for the display, & they have become favorites, however Rachel Carson's groundbreaking Silent Spring remains on my TBR. #earthy @eggs @alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

TheBookHippie Rachel‘s book is dense but I enjoyed it very much. 1mo

My apologies. I forgot to post November's read.
Amitav Ghosh looks at the impact of climate change in his 2016 non-fiction book, The Great Derangement: Climate Change and the Unthinkable. He focuses on the influence of culture, history, and politics on environmental issues and how these relate to colonialism.
