',Hope Jahren is the voice that science has been waiting for.'
Nature ',A superb account of the deadly struggle between humanity
and what may prove the only life-bearing planet within ten light
years, written in a brilliantly sardonic and conversational style.'
E. O. Wilson',Hope Jahren asks the central question of our time:
how can we learn to live on a finite planet? The Story of Moreis
thoughtful, informative, andabove allessential.' Elizabeth Kolbert,

scientist, a brilliant writer, a passionate teacher, and one of the
seven billion people with whom we share this earth.In The Story of
More, she illuminates the link between human habits and our
imperiled planet. In concise, highly readable chapters, she takes
us through the science behind the key inventionsfrom electric power
to large-scale farming to automobilesthat, even as they help us,
release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere like never before. She
explains the current and projected consequences of global
warmingfrom superstorms to rising sea levelsand the actions that we
all can take to fight back.At once an explainer on the mechanisms
of global change and a lively, personal narrative given to us in
Jahren's inimitable voice, The Story of More is the essential
pocket primer on climate change that will leave an indelible impact
on everyone who reads it.
