This was a wonderful read full of beauty, rage, bravery, humour, and much more. It covers the experiences of several scientists in @scientistsforxr.earth. It's human in all the best ways, never maudlin but full of love for this world.

‘It might seem like nobody’s listening when we talk of greenhouse gasses, 2050 and 1.5C, but maybe that’s not how best to break the silence. With a relevant story, a human angle and a little creativity, I think we can find ways to spark those crucial conversations.’

This is an absolutely marvellous and inspiring book that everyone should read

All scientists who have yet to stick their heads above the parapet should read it and act accordingly

There are no grant-awarding bodies on a dead planet
