X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Our November 2026 selection is&nbsp\;<em>F
 uture Earth&nbsp\;</em>by Eric Holthaus.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p class="heading5"
 >FROM CATALOG</p>\n<p>The first hopeful book about climate change\, <em>Th
 e Future Earth</em> shows readers how to reverse the short- and long-term 
 effects of climate change over the next three decades.</p>\n<p>The basics 
 of climate science are easy. We know it is entirely human-caused. Which me
 ans its solutions will be similarly human-led. In <em>The Future Earth</em
 >\, leading climate change advocate and weather-related journalist Eric Ho
 lthaus ("the Rebel Nerd of Meteorology"--Rolling Stone) offers a radical v
 ision of our future\, specifically how to reverse the short- and long-term
  effects of climate change over the next three decades. Anchored by world-
 class reporting\, interviews with futurists\, climatologists\, biologists\
 , economists\, and climate change activists\, it shows what the world coul
 d look like if we implemented radical solutions on the scale of the crises
  we face.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>What could happen if we reduced carbon emissions 
 by 50 percent in the next decade?<br />What could living in a city look li
 ke in 2030?<br />How could the world operate in 2040\, if the proposed Gre
 en New Deal created a 100 percent net carbon-free economy in the United St
 ates?<br />This is the book for anyone who feels overwhelmed by the curren
 t state of our environment. Hopeful and prophetic\, The Future Earth invit
 es us to imagine how we can reverse the effects of climate change in our o
 wn lifetime and encourages us to enter a deeper relationship with the eart
 h as conscientious stewards and to re-affirm our commitment to one another
  in our shared humanity.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>Copies of this title will
