Paperback. Condition: Good. RECIPIENT OF THE 2018 IZZY AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM Every so often a book comes along that can dramatically change, or elevate, one's thinking about a global problem. Much like Naomi Klein's books, Todd Miller's Storming the Wall is such a book and deserves far more attention and discussion.--Izzy Award Judges, Ithaca College***Named one of the 15 Books on Climate Change That Are Essential Reading - EsquireA galvanizing forecast of global warming's endgame and a powerful indictment of America's current stance.--Kirkus ReviewsAs global warming accelerates, droughts last longer, floods rise higher, and super-storms become more frequent.
