Not if the Seas Rise, but When and How High

Once you’ve read an excellent book about climate change, which Jeff Goodell’s “The Water Will Come” most certainly is, you can never unremember the facts.

I am so glad I chose not to have kids WHEN I was 14. It was not a choice since it was obvious to me for many reasons and climate change was not even one of the reasons/considerations at the time . I just "knew" internally, my self awareness is keen.
