BK 28: (Oct 6, 2020) The Future We Choose - Surviving the Climate Crisis


Hi Everyone...

On Oct 6th our discussion will be on the book The Future We Choose: Surviving the Climate Crisis by Christiana Figueres & Tom Rivett-Carnac (Feb 25, 2020). 

With 170 pages it will be approximately 6 pages per day.

Check out the bio & videos below:

"Climate change: it is arguably the most urgent and consequential issue humankind has ever faced. How we address it in the next thirty years will determine the kind of world we will live in and will bequeath to our children and to theirs.

In The Future We Choose, Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac--who led negotiations for the United Nations during the historic Paris Agreement of 2015--have written a cautionary but optimistic book about the world's changing climate and the fate of humanity.
The authors outline two possible scenarios for our planet. In one, they describe what life on Earth will be like by 2050 if we fail to meet the Paris climate targets. In the other, they lay out what it will be like to live in a carbon neutral, regenerative world. They argue for confronting the climate crisis head-on, with determination and optimism. The Future We Choose presents our options and tells us what governments, corporations, and each of us can and must do to fend off disaster."
