H is for Hope 
Climate Change from A to Z

Climate change resists narrative – and yet we must see clearly what’s happening in our world. Millions of lives are at stake, and upwards of a million species. We must act.

In
H is for Hope, Elizabeth Kolbert investigates the history, and future, of climate change – from
A , for Svante Arrhenius, who created the world’s first climate model in 1894, to
Z , for Net Zero. Along the way she looks at Greta Thunberg’s ‘
b lah blah blah’ speech, flies an all-
e lectric plane, experiments with the effects of extreme
t emperatures on the human body, and struggles with the deep
u ncertainty of the future.



Complemented by Wesley Allsbrook’s gorgeous, colour illustrations,
H Is for Hope offers an inspiring, worrying and, above all, hopeful vision for how we can still save our planet.
