Daunting yet inspiring and hopeful

4 stars

Before listening to this, I didn't know much about The Green Deal, and by the end of the book I was inspired and hopeful of the transformation it could be bring to society and the economy.

The book is quite sobering at times, as Klein discusses the challenges ahead, and the limited time to act. However, it feels very much like a call to arms to demand the stop of new fossil fuel extraction, preempting groups such as Just Stop Oil.
