The Carbon Almanac

Cover of the Carbon Almanac co-authored by Diane Osgood

I’m a co-author and an editor of The Carbon Almanac…

…a once-in-a-lifetime collaboration among hundreds of writers, researchers, thinkers, and illustrators that focuses on what we know, what has come before, and what might happen next. Drawing on over 1,000 data points, the book uses cartoons, quotes, illustrations, tables, histories, and articles to lay out carbon’s impact on our food system, ocean acidity, agriculture, energy, biodiversity, extreme weather events, the economy, human health, and best and worst-case scenarios. Visually engaging and built for sharing, The Carbon Almanac is the definitive source for facts and the basis for a global movement to fight climate change. 

This book isn’t what the oil companies, marketers, activists, or politicians want you to believe. This is about what’s really happening, right now. Our planet is in trouble, and no one concerned group, corporation, country, or hemisphere can address this on its own. We are in this together. And it’s not too late for concerted, collective action for change.

Portrait of Bette Midler
An absolutely essential read for anyone who still has hope that humanity can save itself from the wreck it has made of this beautiful world. First you cry, then you act.
— Bette Midler, Multi Grammy Award-winning singer, comedian & author
