Climate change is a major problem: we can ignore it, minimize it, hate it, or try to understand it in order to fight it.
Whether you're a casual reader or a true book lover, come join our book club where we'll read an entire book together, sharing the experience (a group reading method called "arpentage" in French). We'll explain everything when you arrive!
After reading "Braiding Sweetgrass" by Robin Wall Kimerer, "Not the end of the World" by Hannah Ritchie and "How to blow up a pipeline" by Andreas Malm, we offer you three new books.
We will choose one of these 3 books:
Borderlands: Britain's Survival in the Making, by Hazel Shetfield
Britain's marginalized communities, neglected by the centers of power, are boldly reinventing the future, reclaiming and reimagining abandoned land and buildings to prepare us all for the uncertainties ahead. This inspiring new book explores Britain's abandoned and neglected places, the opportunities they offer for businesses and communities, and how they can help us address the challenges of climate change.
Elementary: The New Geography of Climate Change and How We Survive It, by Arthur Snell
With over 30 years of experience in conflict zones and fragile states, Arthur Snell travels from the heat of the Sahel to the Arctic Circle to show how climate change coincides with a collapse of the geopolitical order, an increase in conflicts and economic crises.
Overshoot: How the world capitulated to climate change, by Andreas Malm and Wim Carton
The world is on the brink of a 1.5-degree warming, precisely the increase it has pledged to avoid. Such heat would be unbearable. Even before reaching this threshold, episodes of climate catastrophes have struck with ever-increasing devastating force, and yet the notion has taken hold that the cause is now lost: the intolerable has become inevitable. The limit will be exceeded—perhaps even by two degrees—and the best we can do is cool the Earth later, toward the end of the century, using technologies whose effectiveness remains to be proven.
