âTimely and relevant, this offers plenty to think about.â â Publishers Weekly
From the winner of the 2014 Edna Staebler Award comes a lively, intelligent and nuanced discussion of climate change â a hopeful take on how to live knowing disaster is imminent
A compelling inquiry into our relationship with humanityâs latest and greatest calamity
In The Environmentalistâs Dilemma, award-winning journalist Arno Kopecky zeroes in on the core predicament of our times: the planet may be dying, but humanityâs doing better than ever. To acknowledge both sides of this paradox is to enter a realm of difficult decisions: Should we take down the government, or try to change it from the inside? Is it okay to compare climate change to Hitler? Is hope naive or indispensable? How do you tackle collective delusion? Should we still have kids? And can we take them to Disneyland?
Inquisitive and relatable, Kopecky strikes a rare note of optimistic realism as he guides us through the moral minefields of our polarized world. From start to finish, The Environmentalistâs Dilemma returns to the central question: How should we engage with the story of our times?
