There’s nothing like history and science to remind us just how precarious our existence on this rotating rock we like to call home, really is.

Climatologist and author Michael E. Mann's new book Our Fragile Moment: How Lessons from Earth’s Past Can Help Us Survive the Climate Crisis aims to dispel the narrative of despair, by reminding you that humans have survived changes to our climate before and we can do it again.
