What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
When it comes to the climate, we don't need more marketing or anxiety. We need established facts and a plan for collective action.
The climate is the fundamental issue of our time, yet it seems we can barely agree on what is really going on, let alone what needs to be done. We urgently need facts, not opinions. Insights, not statistics.
The Carbon Almanac is a once-in-a-lifetime collaboration between hundreds of writers, researchers, thinkers, and leaders that focuses on what we know, what has come before, and what might happen next. With thousands of data points, articles and charts explaining carbon's impact on everything in our society, from our the economy to extreme weather events, it is the definitive source for facts and the basis for a global movement to fight climate change.
This book isn't what the oil companies, marketers, activists, or politicians want you to believe. This is what's really happening, right now. Our planet is in trouble, and no one concerned group, corporation, country, or hemisphere can
address this on its own. We are in this together. And it's not too late for concerted, collective action for change.

Critics Review
-
A valuable tool in fighting the (mis)information wars that are part of a strategy to dilute, confuse and diminish the climate change narrative. A valuable, timely and important book. Buy it and give it to your children and relevant policy makers too.
