This is a well-written effort to implore readers to recognize and resist the tendency to shrug off the facts and realities of climate change, and to instead be more mindful of what steps we need to take as individuals. I thought that the topics addressed, and the way in which they were presented, were a little unorganized at first, but upon finishing this book it is clear that this is his roundabout way of trying to call us to action. It is very much a chronicle of Safran Foer's own actions and perspectives when it comes to this issue, and I don't think he delivers on the "saving the planet begins at breakfast" subtitle because there isn't that much in here about eating animals (although I guess he has already done that...). I suppose I am in the category of targeted readers because I don't fully act when it comes to climate change, even though I say that I am deeply concerned. However, I don't feel particularly moved by this book. Even though it is humble and the style is very readable, I would say that it is a very long personal essay more than anything.
