X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Starting from a common base to have real d
 iscussions about the environment\, this book discussion club is a great wa
 y to deepen ideas\, have respectful debates while listening to the points 
 of view of others and broaden our understanding and vision on this importa
 nt topic. Together\, we may discover new forms of commitment and imagine n
 ew sustainable and desirable horizons.</p>\n<p>This month we will discuss 
 <em>Not the End of the World</em>\, by Hannah Ritchie. Feeling anxious\, p
 owerless or confused about the future of our planet? This book will transf
 orm how you see our biggest environmental problems &ndash\; and how we can
  solve them. Packed with the latest research\, practical guidance and enli
 ghtening graphics\, this book will make you rethink almost everything you&
 rsquo\;ve been told about the environment. From the virtues of eating loca
 lly and living in the countryside\, to the evils of overpopulation\, to pl
 astic straws and palm oil\, <em>Not the End of the World</em> will give yo
 u the tools to understand our current crisis and make lifestyle changes th
 at actually have an impact. Hannah cuts through the noise by outlining wha
 t works\, what doesn&rsquo\;t\, and what we urgently need to focus on so w
 e can leave a sustainable planet for future generations.</p>\n<p>A limited
  number of copies will be available at the Check Out Desk.</p>\n<p><strong
