Margaret Renkl:
We are losing the bees and the butterflies, the songbirds and the skinks, as well as the tree frogs and bats. We are witnessing an apocalypse unfold right in our backyards. It’s alarming and tragic and heartbreaking.
A warming climate will make everything worse. We will lose the breadbasket if climate change continues. What does that mean? It means that there are more hungry people. If you are concerned about racial justice or the changing climate affecting people most, then you should look at communities of color.
Writing a book is a lonely exercise.
