Greta Thunberg and the climate scientists Katherine Hayhoe, Endowed Chair and Distinguished Professor at Texas Tech University, and Tamsin Edwards, climate scientist at King's College, London, and IPCC lead author, address extreme weather and increases in global warming. In their essays they explore what this means for the future of our planet. Greta Thunberg, Kelly Burke and Fiona Skinner read.

Greta Thunberg’s school strikes and speeches shook the world and inspired leaders and people around the world address the urgency of climate change.

Now, with The Climate Book she has created a deep understanding of how the problems we face are all interconnected and what’s at stake, by partnering with more than a hundred scientists, engineers, philosophers, journalists, activists and writers. Alongside them Greta shares her own views on what she’s learned and what’s next.

The Climate Book is a portrait of a planet on the brink of a climate catastrophe. It shows us what needs to be done so that our world can remain habitable for all of humanity for generations to come.
