'Hope Jahren asks the central question of our time: how can we
learn to live on a finite planet? The Story of More is thoughtful,
informative and - above all - essential' Elizabeth Kolbert, author
of The Sixth Extinction Hope Jahren is an award-winning
geobiologist, a brilliant writer, an inspiring teacher, and one of
the seven billion people with whom we share this earth. In The
Story of More, Jahren illuminates the link between human
consumption habits and our imperiled planet. In short, highly
readable chapters, she takes us through the science behind the key
inventions - from electric power to large-scale farming and
automobiles - that, even as they help us, release untenable amounts
of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. She explains the current and
projected consequences of greenhouse gases - from superstorms to
rising sea levels - and the actions that all of us can take to
fight back. At once an explainer on the mechanisms of warming and a
lively, personal narrative given to us in Jahren's inimitable
voice, The Story of More is the essential pocket primer on climate
change that will leave an indelible impact on everyone who reads
it.
