Claiming to “cut through the noise,” Hannah Ritchie’s Not the End of the World: How We Can Be the First Generation to Build a Sustainable Planet (Little Brown Spark, 2024) highlights precisely how much progress we have already made in addressing climate and environmental degradation and how we can build off of that progress to chart a sustainable–even better–future. Ritchie, a data scientist, takes a data-driven approach in assessing our current state–and our future possibilities. Maya Angelou declared the book “truly essential,” and Bill Gates similarly calls it “eye-opening and essential.” It has garnered significant reviews.
