Why read it?

I found that this is a book that answered the question of why addressing climate change is such a complex issue. Written by a philosopher whose writing I had found very difficult to comprehend in the past, it was a pleasant surprise that the book had a very simple and effective writing style.

I comprehended that various vested political interests have made addressing climate change a complicated process that requires extensive negotiation and many compromises to seek effective solutions.
