A compassionate and frightening and optimistic near future that’s right here and almost right now.
There are so many whole paragraphs I wanted to copy … p62, p238, p269
“Things are gonna get so much worse in the years to come. More fires. More floods. More trauma, and that means more of this shit, people lashing out, looking for someone else to blame because they can’t punch their ancestors in the face for failing to act a hundred years ago.” p269
“There’s some stuff we can’t change. The heat we’ve sunk into the ocean? it’s gonna melt the ice caps. No one’s gonna repeal the second law of thermodynamics. Habitat loss is going to keep pushing animals into new territories where they have no predators—and hwere no one has any resistance to the diseases they carry. …” p269
The Blue Helmets are just amazing.
Read it. Just …. read it. Boomers to Zoomer. Read it.
