Saving Us

Paul W. Horn Distinguished Professor at Texas Tech University Katharine Hayhoe – a chief scientist for The Nature Conservancy – sounds the clarion call: Climate change poses an existential threat to humanity. It may seem insurmountable due to the scale and scope of the problem and because meaningful change requires collective action, a skill humanity mostly lacks. 

Hayhoe decries the tribalism, complacency and fear that fuel ignoring or denying climate change. She details why the issue remains so divisive, and yet, offers hope. In her sobering, remarkably encouraging account, Hayhoe calls for catalyzing systemic change by helping others – with love – connect their personal concerns to climate solutions.
