The Global Citizen Reviews


  • Rhys Lindmark

    Started, but didn't finish.

    Juicy beginning, with great systems frameworks for daily writing.

    But then became a bunch of bad takes on degrowth, nuclear, and the like. Only made it 30% in.

  • Silke

    This book was interesting, up to a point. After a while, the columns felt repetitive, even when new and/or updated information was presented.

  • olsweetcow

    I thought it was an amazing book about environment. Although the statistics were dated. A lot of the articles were relevant and thought provoking. I would recommend anyone who enjoys environmental science as well as economics to digest this piece in full.
