Robin Miles and Ram�n de Ocampo do excellent work, as does Hillary Huber. Erin deWard--whose voice for Solnit has a tone of drama--is especially convincing. DeWard captures the passion and intelligence that mark this historian, feminist, and incisive critic. While a few of the narrators are not on the same level, the main essayists are well served. This anthology of essays chronicles the successes, challenges, and possibilities of working toward overcoming climate change. The positive suggestions--"learning to see interconnectedness," holding politicians accountable, creating a communal future--make for a kind of corrective to the gloom surrounding the subject. This is an uncommon audiobook that takes on a formidable issue and leaves the listener hopeful about the possibilities of the growing climate movement. A.D.M. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine
