Kimberly Nicholas PhD
Über diesen Titel
** Los Angeles Times bestseller **
It's warming. It's us. We're sure. It's bad. But we can fix it.
After speaking to the international public for close to fifteen years about sustainability, climate scientist Dr. Nicholas realized that concerned people were getting the wrong message about the climate crisis. Yes, companies and governments are hugely responsible for the mess we're in. But individuals CAN effect real, significant, and lasting change to solve this problem. Nicholas explores finding purpose in a warming world, combining her scientific expertise and her lived, personal experience in a way that seems fresh and deeply urgent: Agonizing over the climate costs of visiting loved ones overseas, how to find low-carbon love on Tinder, and even exploring her complicated family legacy involving supermarket turkeys.
In her astonishing, bestselling book Under the Sky We Make, Nicholas does for climate science what Michael Pollan did more than a decade ago for the food on our plate: offering a hopeful, clear-eyed, and somehow also hilarious guide to effecting real change, starting in our own lives. Saving ourselves from climate apocalypse will require radical shifts within each of us, to effect real change in our society and culture. But it can be done. It requires, Dr. Nicholas argues, belief in our own agency and value, alongside a deep understanding that no one will ever hand us power—we're going to have to seize it for ourselves.

This is the one!
This is the book I was looking for! Everything neatly packaged in an understandable, easy-to-digest way with just the right amount of factual evidence and urgency placed so that it is still motivating to read on. I LOVED this and now I am incredibly sad it's not out in German because I want to give this book to all my relatives.
Of all the climate books I have read this is the one I want to give to my mom, my uncle and my brother, highly recommended reading if you've not read or just a little climate literature so far
