A review by schnorriwiebli
Wir sind das Klima! by Stefanie Jacobs, Jan Schönherr, Jonathan Safran Foer

tense slow-paced

2.0

This was a deeply frustrating read. Even recognising I wasn't the target audience for this book, as my diet is already mostly plant-based anyway, the text drowns in the multitude of allegories employed to describe (fighting against) the climate crisis, as well as in the author's own internal dialogue. It's lengthy, imprecise, neither particularly informative nor very inspiring. This book spends so much of its time discussing how we should think about the climate crisis; time we could otherwise spend acting.
