Climate Change – Our Warming World

Christina Hutchins founded Our World Foundation, a non-profit organization established to raise awareness about climate change and to stimulate people's support for the solutions. Jonathan Dimbleby writes, “Climate Change presents in a clear and unique way the greatest challenge facing humanity. It is illustrated with telling photography and sharply written text. It is both objective and passionate. To read it is to know that urgent action is needed at every level in all societies.” This beautiful coffee-table book was published to coincide with the United Nations Climate Change Conference, held in December 2009 in Copenhagen. Hutchins’ book provides a concise and friendly summary of the causes and impact of climate change, with compelling images and testimonials written by those already affected. It highlights the importance of all people making an effort to take action. Readers are also encouraged to switch to a green electricity tariff and a petition outlining a global climate change emergency plan. Review by Sharon Malan
