Frightening at times but well worth a read for anyone who wants to be more informed on the climate emergency

This book was really informative for explaining the most recent science on what the earth will be like at each degree of additional warming. It can get very scientific at points, but I still found I could follow it fine. I did find it incredibly depressing. Despite the note at the end that we still can avoid many of the possible outcomes, it feels incredibly unlikely. I don't feel like I needed the scale of the catastrophe spelt out to me so bluntly, but that is my fault for reading on, rather than any fault of the book. It is a very well researched and fleshed out analysis of what our world will end up like should we continue as we are doing. Definitely a call for change!
