Losing Earth The Decade We Could Have Stopped Climate Change | Nathaniel Rich

The most urgent story of our times, brilliantly reframed, beautifully told: how we had the chance to stop climate change, and failed.

In the book Losing Earth, Rich is able to provide more of the context for what did - and didn't - happen in the 1980s and, more important, is able to carry the story fully into the present day and wrestle with what those past failures mean for us in 2019. It is not just an agonizing revelation of historical missed opportunities, but a clear-eyed and eloquent assessment of how we got to now, and what we can and must do before it's truly too late.
