pickBoswell provides a comprehensive analysis of the increasing global temperatures and the associated heat as the foremost threat to humanity. He highlights that, on an annual basis, heat-related fatalities surpass those caused by all other natural disasters combined. This work serves as an informative resource for the public, particularly aimed at individuals who may be skeptical about the realities of climate change.

I had to choose The Library of Ice (despite choosing it last year 😅), as it had such an impact on me. It is a glorious homage to landscapes we must protect.

pickTold from the perspectives of a teenage girl and her parents, this is the future, but it‘s also the past. Her parents frequently tell her stories of what it was like before, how hard they had to fight, and how that progress is still so delicate due to the continuing capitalist greed of the fossil fuel industry and its climate criminals. Life looks radically different and is not easy, but together, humanity pulls through. When violence breaks⬇️
Progress is fragile. Revolution is a delicate bird. We think we have fixed everything, but the old world – the destroying classes – they will roll it back the instant they can. They are trying. Are you listening to me?
pickChange the system, not the climate.
An accessible introduction to the idea of ecosocialism. Makes clear that capitalism cannot be made environmentally friendly, nor can leftist/neoliberal governments who are backing corporations/capitalism, no matter how many green washing initiatives are advertised, an obvious conclusion given decades of international environmental conferences without seeing meaningful reduction in carbon emissions, etc. 1/?
What if you had more time and energy to build a better world?

Seems like a good time to talk about this book again. This is my neighborhood this morning, and surrounding areas have seen historic flooding. This is just a little from Hurricane Debbie‘s rain bands. Yesterday morning: massive earthquake in Japan. 6 Tornadoes occurred in this area this week, and are happening in NY too. Call it a hoax all you want. A dying planet stops for no one. Remember: project 2025 calls to end all climate change⬇️
#CoverLove Day 10: #Green. I inherited a fair number of climate-change-themed, ecojustice books from a friend who has left our university to teach at Indiana in the fall. Will miss him but grateful to have his books for safekeeping.
