Leading scientist and climate writer Tim Flannery's #1 international bestseller, The Weather Makers, was one of the first books to break the topic of climate change out into the general conversation. In the ten years since, the facts of our changing climate have become widely accepted, but political leadership has not kept up. With Earth's climate system fast approaching a crisis, Flannery argues that we need to act now.

Atmospheric CO2 levels are increasing faster than at any other time in the entire recorded history of Earth. A glacier the size of Florida is sinking into the waters of Antarctica. And around the world, people are already living with the consequences of an altered climate, from demobilizing winters to deadly heatwaves.

The response to the climate crisis has been divided. Technological optimists envision geoengineering our way out of trouble with schemes like injecting light-reflecting sulfur into the stratosphere, while pessimists believe that at this point, nothing can be done--humans will have to adapt. Flannery draws on the latest science to describe a third way forward, using strategies that enhance the Earth's own systems for carbon capture and storage--from large-scale seaweed farming to the production of carbon-negative cement. If we begin investing now, third-way technologies could capture one-quarter of current global emissions by 2050. In the meantime, governments must work together to break the link between prosperity and pollution and to continue to increase the reach of alternative energies. Written with urgency but also optimism, Atmosphere of Hope is a must-read for anyone interested in our global future.

Wow Great Deal!
Color: Black
I have been using this chair for a month now and I am honestly impressed for the price I paid. I work from home so am using this chair 24/7. I had no issues with assembling it myself as a 35 year old female. Instructions were simple to follow and took me maybe 30 minutes to put together. Its sturdy and comfortable. I appreciate the padded arms and the seat bottom is also a nice thick cushion. Added bonus for the head rest and that it is adjustable. Definitely recommend.

Good quality and arrived quickly
Color: Black
I was very pleased with how easy this chair was to set up. Affordable, arrived quickly. The only reason it isn’t 5/5 is because on of the arms had a small dent, possibly due to not enough bubble wrap during shipping. Other than that, the quality is great.

Awesome chair so far
Color: Black
My old chair can go in the trash immediately because it set the bar so low (picked up from a giveaway - squeaked anytime it's leaned on, always sinking upon sitting on it). This Ergonomic chair blew it out of the water. Happy with this purchase. This chair took me an hour to assemble, which I expected. It feels extremely sturdy and comfortable. Lumbar support feels great! I love the various adjustability options this chair offers. Hope it lasts for many years. By the way, I am 175 lbs, 5'10".
