Mat reviewed The Uninhabitable Earth by David Wallace-Wells
Sobering and thorough analysis of the climate crisis
4 stars
As I progressed through this audiobook, I wasn't sure how I was going to review it. When it comes to the climate crisis, it's not the kind of book you want to read, as it explains the horrors ahead of us if we don't address it urgently. Part two, which makes up the bulk of the book, goes into great detail of the various ways the earth could be rendered uninhabitable, and was a gruelling read at times. Part three was my favourite part of the book, discussing the capitalism, history, philosophical aspects, and how technology will and won't save us from climate change.
