Title: High Tide |
| Author: Mark Lynas |
Description: Subtitle: How Climate Change Is Engulfing Our Planet
Climate change is happening right now, and in this book, Mark Lynas talks with people already feeling the impact.
From the thawing of the Alaskan Arctic to the floods in York, the author witnesses some of the worst impacts of climate change first hand, and challenges us to bring this to a halt by making changes in our own lives.
As catastrophe beckons, nobody who reads this book will be able to look back and say I didnt know.
