panI ordered this book from #BookDepository for 3 reasons:
1. I was hoping to win the #GoldenBookmark ( I did not)
2. I was hoping to learn how I could make a difference in reversing climate change ( I did not)
3. I could fulfill a prompt for #NonFictionChallenge2020 ( I did, indeed)
Greta is great but this book, NOT SO MUCH. 👇🏽
Crazeedi I hope you are well Cindy. Sending a hug 5y
Cinfhen This is JUST a collection of speeches Greta gave in 2018/19 - they are short & repetitive. It‘s a wake up call to heed the warning ⚠️ but there are no useful suggestions as to what we can do. Nor is there any context to her speeches or scientific information to help understand the direness. #UnpopularOpinion 5y
Cinfhen Im well @Crazeedi how are you feeling?? 5y

Lindy I was disappointed with this too. I listened to the audiobook, which is narrated by Greta. One speech would have been enough. 5y
Crazeedi @Cinfhen I'm fine, just feeling a bit scattered, my mind is being filled with the world, so my concentration is a bit off. Need the sun and warmth! Have a great day🥰 5y
Cinfhen Thanks @Lindy I felt BAD panning a 15 yr old activist but honestly this book was not worth my $5 5y
Cinfhen I totally understand @Crazeedi surprisingly reading is working as a good distraction for me! Sending hugs and warm wishes your way xx 5y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa You are really taking on some disappointing reading for this challenge...I owe you an apology, go read something for fun! 5y
Cinfhen Hahaha @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I‘m just picking poor choices!!!! 5y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Cinfhen Some of it may be the times, I‘m finding nonfiction difficult this week...and my for fun reading has to be distracting or it doesn‘t work. So maybe we are just much tougher critics at the moment.🤷♀️ 5y
Hooked_on_books I haven‘t read it yet, but I‘ve heard things about Hope Jahren‘s new book that suggest it might be more like what you seek.![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
