Description

In We Are the Weather, Jonathan Safran Foer explores the central global dilemma of our time in a surprising, deeply personal, and urgent new way.

Some people reject the fact, overwhelmingly supported by scientists, that our planet is warming because of human activity. But do those of us who accept the reality of human-caused climate change truly believe it? If we did, surely we would be roused to act on what we know. Will future generations distinguish between those who didn’t believe in the science of global warming and those who said they accepted the science but failed to change their lives in response?

The task of saving the planet will involve a great reckoning with ourselves―with our all-too-human reluctance to sacrifice immediate comfort for the sake of the future. We have, he reveals, turned our planet into a farm for growing animal products, and the consequences are catastrophic. Only collective action will save our home and way of life. And it all starts with what we eat―and don’t eat―for breakfast._x005F_x000D_n_x005F_x000D_n9781250757975_x005F_x000D_n_x005F_x000D_n17_x005F_x000D_n_x005F_x000D_ntaxable_x005F_x000D_n_x005F_x000D_nnotify_x005F_x000D_n_x005F_x000D_nAgricultural Sciences, Animal Husbandry, Climatology, Conservation, Earth Sciences, Engineering, Engineering and Transportation, Environment, Environmental Science, Environmentalism, Food Science, Nature and Ecology, Politics and Government, Politics and Social Sciences, Public Affairs and Policy, Rivers, Science and Math, Self-Help, Sustainable Agriculture, Weather_x005F_x000D_n_x005F_x000D_nPaperback_x005F_x000D_n_x005F_x000D_nen_x005F_x000D_n_x005F_x000D_n1250757975_x000D_n_x000D_n$ 17.00_x000D_n_x000D_n-_x000D_n_x000D_ntaxable_x000D_n_x000D_nnotify_x000D_n_x000D_nNonfiction
