Storms of my Grandchildren:
The truth about the coming climate catastrophe and our last chance to save humanity
James Hansen
In Storms of My Grandchildren, James Hansen gives us the opportunity to watch a scientist who is sick of silence and compromise…offer up the fruits of four-plus decades of inquiry and ingenuity just in case he might change the course of history. — L.A. Times

Climate Code Red:

David Spratt and Philip Sutton

already crossed as a sustainability emergency, that takes us beyond the
politics of failure-inducing compromise. We are now in a race between
climate tipping points and political tipping points.
