I initially had trouble adjusting to the tone this is written in. Sounded like someone attempting a David Attenborough larp. The chapters have a nice structure once you get used to that.
A few things I didn’t know about how the ecosystems of this world came into being. It ends on a balanced note about climate change.
Still not addressing how disproportionate the effects of mitigating it are in the West vs the rest of the world. But an optimistic view of what we can do, which I didn’t expect.
Although I haven't been the top student in my class in physics I've always been drawn to it. Contemporary physics is so weird and complicated that I had no hopes of ever understanding any of it. That's where Feynman steps in. Reading complex formulas and accepting the ambiguity of how things work is only possible if it's explained like Feynman explains it. You're not being underestimated, but you feel cared for. And most importantly, you end up understanding things you'd never dreamt of ever understanding.
