Author and environmental journalist David Geselbracht’s Climate Hope: Stories of Action in an Age of Global Crisis (D&M $24.95) due out in October, is a well-researched and engaging exploration of global efforts to combat climate change, aiming to replace fear with hope and determination. The enormity and complexity of climate change often leads to confusion and hopelessness, but Geselbracht blends expert interviews and on-the-ground reporting to highlight significant solutions and actions. He covers diverse locations, from the 2021 UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow to Copenhagen’s heating ducts and Western Canada’s wildfire-scorched landscapes. By integrating fields like glaciology, climate science, law and diplomacy, Geselbracht presents stories of hope, encouraging a renewed sense of purpose in addressing this critical issue. 9781771624268
