Undeniable.
I was given this book as a suggested read for my climate change and the law module and it was like no textbook I’ve read before. It is engaging and accessible, she really highlights the true problem that as a society we face and makes it seem so obvious and absolute there is no way anyone could read this and deny the truth. Better still Klein not only highlights the problem and the cause but continuously suggests and outlines how it can be fixed. I have never been a climate denier but neither have a been particularly climate conscious, this book definitely changed how I viewed the world and I think it’s such an important topic which needs much much much more recognition. The only reason this book doesn’t get a 10/10 is the slight repetitive nature, I accept how important the message is and that it is potential that it needs to be repeated until it is given recognition but as a book it makes some sections slightly tiresome! Other than that this was an extremely easy book to read and for those with no understanding of either the law or climate science klein very helpfully explains practically everything!
