About the Author
Debut author Ian Hunt grew up in Ohio, where he enjoyed winters filled with snow and sledding. He became interested in climate change when he noticed those snowy winters becoming less frequent. He moved from the Midwest to California, where he held a variety of jobs, from hardening homes for fires, to planting native habitats. He earned his MA in Climate and Society from the Columbia University Climate School and now resides in Brooklyn, where he is an advocate for climate education and climate action.
