I am only up to page 50 of 436, as I write this. But with some 85 essays written by legitimate climate authorities, and each section punctuated with one of 18 rallying-calls written by Greta, '"telling it like it is," this is a book we need to read slowly, like a new standard edition of the bible.Our wakeup call, and a great complement volume to David Simon's MeatonomicsGeorge

With due respect for the effort required then, and intending to leave no leaf unturned, I checked with Amazon about the page margins. According to the Amazon fellow I spoke to, who was talking to me from South Africa, nobody has yet said anything about them. See the image of an open book attached to this review. What you will see, and throughout the book, is that every even-numbered page has its margins skewed to the right. A pointed statement calling out the reason why our world is in so much trouble?
In any event, the left margin is 1 1/2 inches from the left side of the page. The right margin is a little less than 1/4 inch from the seam, so close to the seam that you have to make considerable effort to keep the right edge of the text in view where you can read it. The fellow from South Africa and I, all we could think, is that this was not likely just a bookbinder’s oversight. But seems more to be perhaps a nicely suggestive way to say that this book is meant to ‘put us on edge,’ nevertheless. That we might be provoked to take action! That we must pay greater attention now to what’s really going on as far as the climate is concerned, and in fact to everything else that is connected to it. Also as the book cover graphically suggests, with its red-hot letters perilously close to the right edge, or perhaps just one step further and we’re at ‘no man’s land?’ Where all life on earth could disappear, all burned up, and every species gone extinct?
Yet, not to fret. We’ve got this. All we need do is to summon up our best selves, wherever we may have misplaced them, shake ourselves into waking mode, read this most important book cover-to-cover, and make every effort humanly possible to save this planet, and all our lives living on it. Call this God’s will, and this book our newly revised ‘climate bible,’ and we wouldn’t be wrong. As let’s say, maybe this is the way His kingdom is supposed to come. And our world finally owned by everyone.
I cannot recommend this book more highly. Share it with everyone you know.
I would only add, at this late date (3/30/23) beyond having read The Climate Book about a month ago, and based on my further reading so far up to page 134 in another great book, Meatonomics (2013) by David R. Simon, that Greta could have gone further. I have counted in the index at the end of her book, only eight citations referring to the plant-based diet that several of her contributors and she mention as important, but it would seem only in passing. While in Simon's book, the underlying problem with our climate is clearly, and with his lawyer’s hand, shown to be all about the impact of animal agriculture that has morphed into a monster sickness affecting all aspects of our daily lives and society.
Though the USA is the home of the "American dream," as we are seeing, it has fast turned into our "worst nightmare," well on its way to upsetting the whole world with its same sickness, its penchant for animal agriculture gone wild with factory farming (CAFOs) and its shameless, shady politics so far kept out the public’s eye. While all along, the perfect solution, as Simon and many others have effectively proved, is for us all to just stop buying and consuming meat, dairy, cheese, eggs, even fish, all animal products of any kind. The science has been known for decades that plants, plus a Vitamin B-12 supplement and flaxseed meal for your Omega 3s, have all the protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals that we need to live supremely healthy, productive lives. That, as we switch to an exclusively plant-based, organic diet, as I did eight years ago, the rest of the world around us will relax, with more than plenty of nutritious plant-based foods to go around, as everyone quietly wakes up into a brand new day, living life on our earth as it is absolutely meant to be lived.
