Beschreibung

An existential manual for tragic optimists, can-do pessimists, and compassionate doomers WITH GLOBAL WARMING projected to rocket past the 1.5 C limit, lifelong activist Andrew Boyd is thrown into a crisis of hope, and off on a quest to learn how to live with the "e;impossible news"e; of our climate doom.He searches out eight leading climate thinkers from collapse-psychologist Jamey Hecht to grassroots strategist adrienne maree brown, eco-philosopher Joanna Macy, and Indigenous botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer asking them: "e;Is it really the end of the world? and if so, now what?"e;With gallows humor and a broken heart, Boyd steers readers through their climate angst as he walks his own. From storm-battered coastlines to pipeline blockades and "e;hopelessness workshops,"e; he maps out our existential options, and tackles some familiar dilemmas: "e;Should I bring kids into such a world?"e; "e;Can I lose hope when others can't afford to?"e; and "e;Why the fuck am I recycling?"e;He finds answers that will surprise, inspire, and maybe even make you laugh in this insightful and irreverent guide for achieving a "e;better catastrophe."e;AWARDSBRONZE | 2023 Living Now Book Awards: Social Activism / Charity
