2071: The World We’ll Leave Our Grandchildren by Chris Rapley & Duncan Macmillan

This book (originally a play) is a remarkable achievement – it condenses the complex and difficult topic of climate change into 200 easy to follow pages, many of which contain only one paragraph.

It was written just before the landmark 2015 COP in Paris but its content remains pertinent to today’s world. If anything the book’s impact is sharpened by our knowledge that the signatories to the Paris Climate Agreement have not delivered on their commitments.

2071: The World We’ll Leave Our Grandchildren is available from the CA-WN Lending Library, please contact us if you’d like to borrow it.

Thank you to Mike Longman from the Northamptonshire Natural History Society for recommending this book.
