Bill McKibben
Our most widely respected environmental writer brings together the essential voices on global warming, from its 19th-century discovery to the present.
What is happening to our planet? And what can we do about it? The Global Warming Reader provides more than thirty-five answers to these burning questions, from more than one hundred years of engagement with the topic. Here is:
• ELIZABETH KOLBERT's groundbreaking essay "The Darkening Sea"
• MICHAEL CRICHTON's skeptical view of climate change
• GEORGE MONBIOT's biting indictment of those who are really using up the planet's resources
• NASA scientist JAMES HANSEN's testimony before the U.S. Congress
• and clarion calls for action by AL GORE, ARUNDHATI ROY, NAOMI KLEIN, and many others.
The Global Warming Reader is a comprehensive resource, expertly edited by someone who lives and breathes this defining issue of our time.
