Books About Climate Catastrophe & Sustainability

Well folks, the crap has certainly hit the fan. The cold hard reality here is that capitalism is killing the planet and we have an extremely short time to stop it before it dooms us all. In 2018, I started out on a quest to put my money where my mouth was by building up a really good collection of books to teach myself all I needed to know about climate catastrophe. As it turns out, the puzzle isn’t all that complex; capitalism goes, or the human species does. Unfortunately, capitalists don’t print a lot of books saying their way of life has to end to save the rest of us; this section of The Library is devoted to the very best titles I found.
