Kate Evans - FUNNY WEATHER

Everything we didn’t want to know about CLIMATE CHANGE but probably should find out, with an introduction by George Monbiot.
I was drawn to this amazing little booklet that should appeal to adults and young adults alike because of the title & introduction. As a daily ‘ Guardian’ reader, George Monbiot features there regularly. Although written about 20 yrs ago this weather topic is not new, as I discovered while happily reading these well researched, scientifically, well-informed & entertaining cartoons. For myself, I was a founder member of ‘Friends of the Earth’ in Bath, UK in the mid 70s & we used to be aware of all of these climate concerns then & tried in our pioneering small ways to make change happen. Like the amazingly inspiring & talented Kate Evans who wrote and drew the cartoons, says, use this book to change your life, because what happens next, depends on what you do now …
Thank you Kate and thank you Iona Library for shelving this important book.
