Join us for another meeting of the Nevertheless We Read Sumner Dems book club.
The book club will meet monthly on the 4th Tuesday at 6:30 PM. Feel free to bring a snack to share! Books will be selected at each meeting for the next month.
For next month’s pick, we are tackling the topic of climate change. There has been a lot of misinformation around climate change (and misinformation was the topic of our very first book!) So I’m excited to dive into this topic, which affects everyone.
We are reading “The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming” by David Wallace Wells.
From the description:
It is worse, much worse, than you think. If your anxiety about global warming is dominated by fears of sea-level rise, you are barely scratching the surface of what terrors are possible—food shortages, refugee emergencies, climate wars and economic devastation.
An “epoch-defining book” (The Guardian) and “this generation’s Silent Spring” (The Washington Post), The Uninhabitable Earth is both a travelogue of the near future and a meditation on how that future will look to those living through it—the ways that warming promises to transform global politics, the meaning of technology and nature in the modern world, the sustainability of capitalism and the trajectory of human progress.
The Uninhabitable Earth is also an impassioned call to action. For just as the world was brought to the brink of catastrophe within the span of a lifetime, the responsibility to avoid it now belongs to a single generation—today’s.
As always, I encourage you to utilize your local library or to buy from Bookshop.org to support your favorite local bookstore.
