TL;DR
In order to stand a chance against catastrophic impacts of climate change, we need to fundamentally change the global economy. Seriously, this book is a great read.
I do think the book was unnecessarily long; she could've gotten the point across in fewer words (and I would've been able to finish the book sooner lol). I lost motivation to read a couple of times due to this, but hey! I made it in the end. This is ultimately what made me go from a true 5/5 rating to a 4.5/5 rating.
I also lowkey loved the sass
the Geoclique is crammed with overconfident men prone to complimenting each other on their fearsome brainpower. At one end you have Bill Gates, the movement's sugar daddy, who once remarked that it was difficult for him to decide which was more important, his work on computer software or inoculations, because they both rank “right up there with the printing press and fire.” At the other end is Russ George, the U.S. entrepreneus who has been labeled a “rogue geoengineer” for dumping some one hundred tons of iron sulphate off the coast of British Columbia in 2012.
