The only thing I could think of as I read this book was how real it actually is. America just elected a president who believes climate change isn't real, and who won't do anything to make sure that the world we live in now will be preserved for future generations. When will we wake up and realize the enormity of this decision?
Climate change is a huge issue, and this book really emphasizes that. It was rather insightful and interesting to read, but it also scared me. The fact that Trump is now president means that it will be almost impossible to put our nation on the right track for preventing even more horrific climate change events.
I think what we really need to remember at this point is that we are stronger together. We need change. This has become even more clear with the results from this election. Inspiring change is hard, and I'm not sure exactly how to do it, but I aim to find out.
