This reminds me of The Martian by Andy Weir. In this graphic novel the main character travels through time in hope to find a solution for climate change. It first shows us her stop 30 million years into the future. While she’s there, to pass the time she writes a journal log of her adventures. And we see the whole story play out from there. 

It was a very entertaining read and the art was wonderful. This book focused on the climate crisis and the grim future we could face. Do I think this book is realistic in terms of how our future will look? Yes and no. I think the idea is right at least. That we’re heading down a gloomy path.
