Snow Days

It seems like we've been getting lots of little snow storms, rather than one or two big storms, in addition to the really cold weather. Makes you glad you don't live closer to Philadelphia or New York! Here are some of the newer books we've added to our collection related to the climate:

The View From Lazy Point: A natural year in an unnatural world, by Carl Safina (508 Sa17)

The Climate War: True believers, power brokers, and the fight to save the earth, by Eric Pooley (363.738 P789)

Eaarth: Making a life on a tough new planet, by Bill McKibben (363.738 M21)
(No, I didn't spell it wrong; the cover really has the planet's name spelled with two A's.)

How to Cool the Planet: geoengineering and the audacious quest to fix Earth's climate, by Jeff Goodell (551.6 G61)
(Okay, so "cooling" may not be a popular topic after the bitter cold we've had.)

Diet for a Hot Planet: The climate crisis at the end of your fork and what you can do about it, by Anna Lappe (338.19 L318)
