Book_small_requiem_for_a_species_-_clive_hamilton

书评:夸大其辞的“挽歌”

相对大多数气候变化著作而言,克莱夫•汉密尔顿的《物种的挽歌》一书更加悲观。谭•科普塞认为,尽管我们确实到了需要采取必要行动的时候了,但是目前鼓吹“末日理论”并且做出重大结论还为时过早。

Books: tipping into exaggeration

Clive Hamilton’s Requiem for a Species is more pessimistic than most writing on climate change. It’s too soon for doom-mongering and drastic conclusions, argues Tan Copsey, though it is time to act.
