SUMMARY:Discussion of “Not the End of the World” by Hannah Richie
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an online discussion on October 22nd!\n\n\nLet’s Discuss: Data-Driven Optimism for Our Planet \nFeeling overwhelmed by environmental headlines? You’re not alone\, but what if the data tells a more hopeful story? Let’s discuss how data can give us some optimism for our planet! \nJoin the Austin Forum for an online book discussion of Hannah Ritchie’s “Not the End of the World: How We Can Be the First Generation to Build a Sustainable Planet.” This groundbreaking book uses hard data to challenge the prevailing narrative of doom. Ritchie\, a researcher at Our World in Data\, argues that while our environmental problems are serious\, they are also solvable. We’ll discuss the book’s surprising insights on everything from carbon emissions and plastic waste to food systems and biodiversity\, and explore its central message: we have made real progress\, and we have the tools to build a sustainable future. \nTo get the most out of the conversation\, we encourage you to read the book or a summary before the event. However\, all are welcome to join\, listen\, and share their perspective\, regardless of whether you’ve finished the book. \nCome ready to discuss\, question\, and explore a pragmatic and empowering path forward for our planet. 🌍💡 \n \nAttendance Instructions \nThe discussion will be held online via Google Meet. Please register to receive the meet link! \nSpace is limited\, so please register only if you’re confident you can attend—and kindly cancel your registration if your plans change so we can open your spot to another participant.
