In 'Eaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet,' Bill McKibben presents a stark reality: we have waited too long to address global warming, and massive change is already underway. Our planet is melting, drying, acidifying, flooding, and burning in ways never before seen. McKibben argues that we must recognize this new planet, which he calls 'Eaarth,' and adapt to it. Hope lies in scaling back, building societies and economies that focus on essentials, and creating communities that can withstand hardship on an unprecedented scale. Fundamental change is our best hope on a violently unbalanced planet.
William Ernest McKibben is an American environmentalist, author, and journalist who has written extensively on the impact of global warming.
