We Are the Weather Makers: The History of Climate Change ReviewI have recently read We are the Weather Makers by Tim
Flannery. This book is an expository selection about the
history of climate change, past effects of it, future
events to come as a response to global warming, and what we
are going to do about it. The book consists of three parts,
all of which I have read. Part One, Earth and the Carbon
Connection, is about the history of climate change. Part
two, Endangered Habitats, is about species of plants and
animals that have been driven extinct as a consequence of
global warming, and species that are going to if the rate
it is developing stays the same. Part three, What's to
Come?, is about what could happen to our planet, how
scientists figured this out, and multiple solutions to
climate change and their pros and cons. One feature in this
book that I adored was the Call to Actions. They were at
the end of each chapter, and were things that young adults
could do to help this problem in our own homes and
hometowns.
I rated part one three out of ten, because
although effective in getting the little points and big
picture around to me, it went about doing that in a boring
way. There are a lot of long scientific words to be
memorized and, you have to reread almost the whole thing
from time to time. Often I would find myself reading a
paragraph in it three or four times before I got what it
was saying! I rate the second part an eight out of ten.
This was my favorite part of the book. It wasn't boring,
it vividly described what happened/would happen in the
future to threatened species, and rereading was minimal for
me. I rated the third and final part six out of ten. It had
some boring parts, and some parts I had to reread, but it
also had some really interesting chapters about renewable
energy, environmentally safe cars, nuclear power plants,
and groups that have taken action. One feature in this book
that I adored was the Call to Actions, short articles at
the end of each chapter talking about things that young
adults could do to help this global warming in our own
homes and hometowns. So overall, the first part is
horrible, although I ensure it is worth your time to fully
read parts two and three, and read all the Call to Actions!
