Watermelon snow : science, art, and a lone polar bear
Quarmby, Lynne, 1958-2020
Book
Concern about the climate crisis is widespread as humans struggle to navigate life in uncertain times. From the vantage of a schooner full of artists on an adventure in the high Arctic, biologist Lynne Quarmby explains the science that convinced her of an urgent need to act on climate change and recounts how this knowledge - and the fear and panic it elicited - plunged her into unsustainable action, ending in arrests, lawsuits and a failed electoral campaign on behalf of the Green Party of Canada.
