"The intensity and urgency of the need for meaningful climate action comes through loud and clear.This book has two goals: to provoke strong reactions and to create committed activists. Readers will find much to think about." - Booklist "Four hefty chapters chart a progressive path for a young would-be environmental activist, with information presented through a global lens.A persuasive, if provocative, polemic tackling an important subject." - Kirkus Review s "A YA adaptation of a controversial missive on climate activism that encourages drastic measures to save the planet's-and this generation's-future. It focuses on why past movements haven't been sufficient to change the tide in environmental justice; nonviolence and civil disobedience are just not enough." - School Library Journal "Reading this brilliant book I found myself underlining whole passages, ticking repeatedly in the margins and inwardly cheering.
Every school library should buy a copy. Every concerned parent should make sure their children have access to it." --Tom Tolkien, School Reading List "The intensity and urgency of the need for meaningful climate action comes through loud and clear .
