The book engages with Australia's 2019\/2020 'Black Summer' of bushfires and smoke, undergraduate students' experiences of climate change, and contemporary activist movements such as the youth strikes for climate. Verlie outlines how we can collectively attune to, live with, and respond to the unsettling realities of climate collapse while counteracting domineering ideals of 'climate control.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis impressive and timely work is both deeply philosophical and immediately practical.
