“[Schlossberg] deserves real credit for coming through her journey into the guts of the consumer machine with a clarifying insight: We aren’t going to solve our problems one consumer at a time. We’re going to need to do it as societies and civilizations, or not at all.” —Bill McKibben, NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

“If you're looking for something to cling to in what often feels like a hopeless conversation, Schlossberg's darkly humorous, knowledge-is-power, eyes-wide-open approach may be just the thing.” — Julia Felsenthal, VOGUE

“If fighting climate change can be engaging, fun, and fulfilling, this is the road map.” — KIRKUS REVIEWS

“[Schlossberg’s] humor and wit ensure that readers will close the book feeling energized rather than hopeless.” —BOOKLIST (starred review)

“With insight and urgency, Schlossberg prods readers to think more deeply about how they participate in these and other activities, and how they might mitigate their impact. In the process, she delivers an intriguing and educational narrative.” — PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
