Climate of Change Richard W Bailey

Many readers find they can easily relate to the issues of our life and times typified in Andrew's stable family life in suburban Sonoma County, California. This is a story of human survival, a spirit rising from the ashes, making lemonade from the bitter lemons one can inherit. Inspiring a deeper understanding of: life, love and devotion, friendship, helpful relationships, hope in the depths of despair, and a Climate of Change. Climate Change presents an existential challenge to mankind that begs for greater attention as time goes on, narrowing the remaining window of opportunity to arrest the process. The absence of public outcry, sufficient to bend the curve toward carbon neutrality, demands our immediate attention. Andrew Wyeth is an unlikely advocate for drawing such attention. The story of his evolving personal transformation places this issue under a new light, adding a compelling, visceral dimension to the real consequences of climate disaster. His clear conviction, forged in devastating experience, drives his recovery. He helps lay out a workable pathway for a powerful human mobilization to follow, acting to restore the vital equilibrium upon which the future of all life depends. A cautionary tale for those courageous enough to face danger, and act with wisdom and hope.
