"Informative and thought provoking"

Review by Suzanne on 13th September, 2023

Purchased on Mighty Ape

The author is fully qualified on the subject. As well as a New Zealand perspective there is Pacific and global contexts. The book is right up to date as it includes cyclone Gabrielle. It has useful chapters at the end on what we can do on a local and personal level, and a list of further resources. It is an easy read with large font and double spacing. I've learnt a lot from this book.

Description

The must-read book on what New Zealand's changing climate means for our everyday lives A warmer world will change more than just our weather patterns. It will change the look of the land around us, what grows and lives on it - including us. In this must-read book, Professor James Renwick untangles how we know what the future holds and why it matters to our everyday lives. He looks at New Zealand's increasingly frequent natural disasters, warming and acidifying waters, the creep of rising sea levels, and the ways that the changing weather will affect our agriculture, lifestyle, food security and economy. Under the Weather is a picture of a planet in danger, a reality-check on what that means for this country, and a reminder that the shape of our future is up to us.
