Scatter, Adapt, and Remember: How Humans Will Survive a Mass Extinction by Annalee Newitz
5.0
Took me a while to get through this one, I kept hitting the renew limit at the library and having to return it and take it out again.
Well worth it though. A comprehensive review of events that can and have caused extinctions on our planet and the ways we might avoid or a least survive the next one.
Interesting in that it is pre-Covid but espouses many of the measures that were in fact taken.
I viewed it as mostly an optimistic book and it still stands as such, but with a tinge of pessimism too, as some of the steps being described as measures towards survival are still not in place even though the publication date is 2013.
Could we move a little faster please....
