If you want to take action on Climate change read this book

Climate Change can make you feel like a rabbit in the headlights and not know where to start. This book is all about helping people to reduce their emissions and take action on climate change so they and our world will be safer. Philip makes it clear that the important thing is that we take that first step, make a start and actually do something, he stresses that we can always add on changes and do more as we can.

Philip shares how he implemented changes in his own life and is open about when things didn’t work as expected and what he did to adapt and move forwards. Philip has certainly done his homework and there is a impressive reference section at the end of the book to back up all the data and options. There is also an accompanying website with more resources including an emissions reductions workbook to help us plan and implement changes in our own lives.

I finished the book feeling empowered by the way the information on Climate change was presented and by the many potential actions we can take to help. It’s the first book I’ve read on Climate Change that left me thinking about the actions I can take to move towards net zero.

If you care about the planet and want to be part of the solution to Climate Change this book is a must read.

I was given this book from the author via netgalley only for the pleasure of reading and leaving an honest review should I choose to.

This was an uplifting and thought provoking read. Kent-Hughes presents actionable solutions to the problems we face, and does so in an easy to understand way. The book is well researched and easy to read for anyone unfamiliar with the challenges of climate change.

If you only read one more book this year, make it this one! It's a must-read for everyone.

Thanks to Netgalley, Mindstorm Publishing and Philip Kent-Hughes for letting me read this book early.

Climate Crisis Plan by Philip Kent-Hughes outlines the process of figuring out what to do about the climate crisis. The book is broken up into three parts: the initial response to the climate crisis/developing a plan, implementing the plan, and reviewing/updating the implemented plan based on what their findings are. The book itself is easy to read and understand even to those who are not as well versed in environmental/climate terminology. There are plenty of helpful diagrams as well for those who do better with visual learning.

"This book does an excellent job of providing actionable steps for a problem that feels overwhelming."

This was a really straightforward book that broke down the process for addressing the crisis that is climate change with simple and easy to understand language using a framework for addressing crises. Yes, the language was simple, but that actually made the book easy to read and it worked to provide the reader with a easy framework to follow for what they can do to address the climate crisis. Additionally, learning what the author was doing themselves by following this plan was impactful and provided me with the knowledge that the author truly did care and were attempting to do their part and share their framework with others.

I wanted to read this book because I am overwhelmed by information on what we are doing wrong and when you listen to news or watch these sessions on climate change-it feels like impending doom and you can't help but ask what can I do now to help make some changes? What can I do in my capacity-going by what I know and what I have? And this book shares steps, action plans, things you can consider reviewing, lifestyle changes too.
The language is simple, and I believe that anyone who can string together words using the English alphabet can read this book.
Thank you Netgalley for the eARC.

I was very excited to receive this book via netgalley bc who doesn't want more information about climate change and ways to do your part? This book had all that information, however it was written in a very juvenile way. It felt like school reports (full of stock pictures and side bits) on individual topics piece-mealed together, but by a very competent highschooler who would absolutely receive an A+.

I would buy this book for my young adult section and promote it to teens who have papers of their own to write. It's not an easy-flowing read, more informational, and not much new information is presented here that you couldn't find in other resources. But good enough for a YA Nonfiction collection.
