| Publisher Description: Some people reject the fact, overwhelmingly supported by scientists, that our planet is warming because of human activity. But do those of us who accept the reality of human-caused climate change truly believe it? The task of saving the planet will involve a great reckoning with ourselves � with our reluctance to sacrifice immediate comfort for the sake of the future. We have, We Are the Weather, reveals, turned our planet into a farm for growing animal products, and the consequences are catastrophic. Only collective action will save our home and way of life. And it all starts with what we eat � and don�t eat � for breakfast. |
