Richard Powers - The Overstory

This is a stunning work situated around the oppression of conservation activism, so it is more important than ever. What people can do on an individual level to combat the effects of climate change has been publicised greatly by writers like George Monbiot. He explains to mitigate the effects of climate change on an individual level is to go vegan or vegetarian, because veganism is one-third of the emissions of a regular meat-eating diet's contribution to climate change, and vegetarianism is two thirds. People should also limit the amount of flying in planes and actively engage in green political groups who are actively engaged in protecting forests, which are decreasing more than ever.
