Synopsis: Climate change resists narrative – and yet we must see clearly what&’s happening in our world. Millions of lives are at stake, and upwards of a million species. We must act. 'To be a well-informed citizen of Planet Earth, you need to read Elizabeth Kolbert.' ROLLING STONE In H is for Hope, Elizabeth Kolbert investigates the history, and future, of climate change – from A, for Svante Arrhenius, who created the world&’s first climate model in 1894, to Z, for Net Zero. Along the way she looks at Greta Thunberg&’s &‘blah blah blah&’ speech, flies an all-electric plane, experiments with the effects of extreme temperatures on the human body, and struggles with the deep uncertainty of the future. Complemented by Wesley Allsbrook&’s gorgeous, colour illustrations, H Is for Hope offers an inspiring, worrying and, above all, hopeful vision for how we can still save our planet.
