Description
Our Fragile Moment: Lessons from the Earth's Past Can Help Us Survive the Climate Crisis
This sweeping work of science and history explores how human existence has been made possible by the Earth's delicate balance, but also threatens our survival if we veer off course. For most of its 4.54 billion years, Earth has managed just fine without humans.
Renowned climate scientist Michael Mann reveals that the conditions allowing humans to thrive are fragile and imperiled by climate change. He arms readers with the knowledge necessary to appreciate the gravity of the unfolding crisis, while empowering them to act before it's too late.
