This was depressing right from the opening essay. Although poinient and hopeful closer to the end, the opening essay set a deep dark tone that was hard to shift. Granted, given climate changed is being discussed, the tone is set right where it should be.
A very hard read, demanding the grief that comes with accepting the reality of climate and ecological change. The facts highlight the paradox that is the notion of perpetual economic growth simultaneous with a reduction in CO2 emittions and other attempts to mittagate global warming and climate change. The reality is the two mix no better then oil and water.
Watch out for cruelty / harm to animals, it will hit only a few pages in.
