Adventures in the Anthropocene

“By the end of this self-help guide for humanity, one is left convinced that we are not only the cause but also the potential cure of our sick planet.”

“An engaging travelogue … Gaia Vince’s case studies are fascinating. She is levelheaded and analytical, and does not overromanticise the natural world… . Vince’s focus on individuals and places helps ground the science in reality.”

“A fascinating tour of the human side of climate change, complete with its perils, and the inspired efforts ordinary people are nonetheless finding to adapt and survive with grace.”

“An impressive book, encyclopedic in its scope and relentless in its gumshoe derring-do. An emporium of fascinating information.”

“Gaia Vince has produced a book, simultaneously deeply depressing and thoroughly uplifting, that is all but impossible to put down.”

“A well-documented, upbeat alternative to doom-and-gloom prognostications.”

“A fine and timely book. Gaia Vince shows us how to stay steady and cheerful despite the ever intensifying drama of the Anthropocene.”
