I appreciated getting this Audio book to listen to while driving on a long trip with my son, so we could discuss it between disks. I recently drove in Vermont, where McKibben lives and where he describes recent flooding and its impact on the roads as one aspect of the impact of climate change.

One of the seminal works in the climate community and one that I wish more people would read and consider. McKibben introduces the work by saying that the world we've known and that has sustained civilizations for ten thousand years is a thing of the past because of climate changed by increased greenhouse gases, especially Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

(Listened to audible.com version, YMMV) Bill McKibben seems to be convinced that catastrophic global warming is coming, there's nothing you can do about it, so you better start getting self-sufficient.
