Forecast鈥榮 great strength is in recognising that while climate change is a serious stressor, it is just one more factor in the complex interplay of social, economic and political influences on a community. Stephan Faris鈥檚 engaging, thoroughly researched reportage takes first-hand examples from Mexico to Bengal, Canada to Russia. He elegantly negotiates the tricky line between the personal and political, and in doing so provides a more accurate and powerful warning about the perils of climate change than many other books in the genre.
