Description
Dahr Jamail's journey to the geographical front lines of climate disruption takes him to the highest peak in North America, the online marketplace rainforest, and the Great Barrier Reef, in search of the consequences of the loss of ice. With a new epilogue by the author, this book offers a firsthand chronicle of the catastrophic reality of our situation.
Accompanied by climate scientists and people whose families have fished, farmed, and lived in the areas he visits for centuries, Jamail begins to accept the fact that Earth, most likely, is in a hospice situation. This allows him to renew his passion for the planet's wild places, cherishing Earth in a way he has never been able to before.
Photographs throughout of Jamail on his journey across the world add to the book's powerful narrative, making The End of Ice a worthwhile read for anyone looking to understand the incalculable necessity of relishing this vulnerable, fragile planet while we still can.
