- Summary
-
- "...[Offers] a hopeful, clear-eyed, and somehow also hilarious guide to effecting real change, starting in our own lives. Saving ourselves from climate apocalypse will require radical shifts within each of us, to effect real change in our society and culture."--
- A leading global sustainability scientist, Nicholas knows the data about climate change, knows the catastrophes looming. Here she reveals how all the passionate sentiments she was taught to suppress as a scientist turned out to be the key tools to navigating a path out of the climate crisis. She makes a hopeful, clear-eyed and at time hilarious guide to effecting radical change in our society and culture--starting with our own lives. -- adapted from back cover
