What if your daily comforts are quietly stealing from the future you expect to inherit? Climate Change 2100: Survive or Thrive? by Chetan Singh Solanki is not a book you finish and forget. This long, reflective review examines how the book informs, unsettles, educates, and nudges you towards climate action while questioning its blind spots with honesty.
