zellinowitsch 's review for:
We Are the Weather: Saving the Planet Begins at Breakfast
by Jonathan Safran Foer
I would give this book 10 stars, if I could.
This is the most accessible, emotional and human book on climate change. While in between it fills you with dread, in the end I had tears in my eyes and was motivated to live, as weird as it sounds.
The author reflects on his own story, his own actions (or lack thereof), while explaining why we don't do more about the climate crisis. How we function and look at things, how structures make us do something (or nothing). And which actions have the most impact. And why.
I loved how it wasn't black and white. We will make mistakes, but at least we are doing something. And most important of all: Let's fucking ensure we can experience the things that make human life so extraordinarily beautiful, now and in the future. Let's make the future possible.
