The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming

"Like the parable of the blind men and the elephant, my understanding of the future of our planet and the things that live on it used to be cobbled together from 100 well-intentioned half-truths and a handful of lies from people who have an interest in denying that the elephant is even in the room. Reading David Wallace-Wells’ book was, simply put, like going to meet the elephant myself. There is no better, more readable look at the consequences of the climate change that will unfold in the span of the next human lifetime. You owe it to yourself to actually understand what’s happening and what can be done to try to mitigate the outcome."
