Frequently asked questions
Which climate change book should I read first?
If you want the science, start with a broad overview title; if you want hope and agency, start with a solutions book. Use the topic tags to pick the angle that interests you rather than reading chronologically.
Is climate fiction included?
Yes. Climate fiction (cli-fi) sits alongside non-fiction here — the tags tell you which is which.
