Alan Weisman does an excellent job of presenting our current predicament with the environment without making it seem hopeless. Even the title of book gives the reader inspiration that perhaps through well thought out plans and actions we can fix the mess we are currently in.

It is obvious that Weisman did extensive research for this book and although our current climate crisis may not be reversible, the author still writes about ways we as humans can be prepared and do better.

I will be rereading this several times in order to let all the information sink in.

A must read for all of humankind because the planet we are on needs us to do better, and this book is a way to remind us of our humanity and our partnership with the world around us.
