To balance that out with some constructive environmentalism, try this book next; https://www.amazon.com/Apocalypse-Never-Environmental-Alarmism-Hurts/dp/006300

  Not trying to start anything, but does this review have any merit? https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R36RD4QCZ047P9?ASIN=0063001691 https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R36RD4QCZ047P9?AS...

  Based on this review > ...But in this engaging and well-researched treatise, Michael Shellenberger exposes the environmental movement’s hypocrisy in painting climate change in apocalyptic terms while steadfastly working against nuclear power.... the two books are fairly similar actually. MffF doesn't have much dogmatic environmentalist alarm. It discusses how humanity and its systems could react once the point of no climate return is reached/if it's reached, which is a different focus than this book you've linked. Whitewashing MffF as environmental alarmism really misses the point. For example, assuming this is covered Shellenberger's book > He also cites that the Dutch have adapted quite well to subsidence putting much of their nation under sea level, and they have been able to survive and thrive MffF "wouldn't" disagree with that. But, it would highlight some instances where CC adaption mindsets (like your linked book) don't cover the whole picture. Some climates humans just can't adapt to. What then? MffF goes through that.
