The Best of Times, The Worst of Times: Futures from the Frontiers of Climate Science by Paul Behrens

5.0

A must-read. I'll be sharing this with others, and really really pressure them to read it. I might be a bit biased (I already agreed with most of what was being said in this book, and the author is one of my former teachers), but I don't think that that impacted this five star rating.

The book takes a comprehensive look at climate change, as comprehensive as possible in a single book of course, but nuanced and clearly very well researched.

Different topics are discussed from a pessimistic perspective without being (unreasonably) alarmist, as well as from a hopeful perspective without being overly naive.

Well written, filled to the brim with fascinating facts and figures and spurring me to more action. Very good.
