Non-fiction Environmental Book Recs
Hello! I am seeking book recommendations regarding the environment.
I graduated with my B.A. in environmental studies several years ago. I keep up with news, but don’t feel like I have been academically challenged/informed in this realm since I stopped studying at school. Unfortunately, I did have to find work outside of the field, but I deeply want to continue learning. Open to all types of books. I would love anything thought-provoking. For example, environmental philosophy books or a collection of recent findings. Historical texts are also great, and so are books that allow the voices of others to be heard.
The most recent book I’ve read is “A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety: How to Keep Your Cool on a Warming Planet” by Sarah Jaquette Ray and that was a year or too ago
