The narrative structure detracted from the information presented. The story line jumped from place to place and to varying groups of people in a very helter skelter way. The actual information about the volcanic eruption was magnificent.

I liked that this book looked at climate change from more of a non-western point of view that I usually see. I also appreciated the comparison between Pope Francis‘ Laudato si‘ and the Paris Climate Accord. #Naturalitsy @AllDebooks #NonfictionNovember

AllDebooks It was good to see a different perspective. 1mo

The idea for Frankenstein came to Shelley during a ghost story competition with her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, and John Polidori during the cold summer of 1816. #TodayILearned #NFN

My apologies. I forgot to post November's read.
Amitav Ghosh looks at the impact of climate change in his 2016 non-fiction book, The Great Derangement: Climate Change and the Unthinkable. He focuses on the influence of culture, history, and politics on environmental issues and how these relate to colonialism.

This was very interesting. It goes through 500 years of history and points out things and ways we messed up the environment. It's very broad but he does a good job.

Boswell provides a comprehensive analysis of the increasing global temperatures and the associated heat as the foremost threat to humanity. He highlights that, on an annual basis, heat-related fatalities surpass those caused by all other natural disasters combined. This work serves as an informative resource for the public, particularly aimed at individuals who may be skeptical about the realities of climate change.
