Post-Apocalyptic Environmentalism

This was a very nice read! The book presents a useful framework of three meta-narratives present in environmentalism: green progress, the apocalyptic, and the post-apocalyptic narrative. I found the respective characterizations to be insightful. The relelvance of emotions like grief and anger is mentioned, but might be a little underdeveloped, and I would have liked to read about the role of shame and guilt as well. The concluding remarks about the future and the utopian vision needed were maybe a bit too brief. Still, a very nice, well-researched and well-written book. I especially liked the focus on how hope is not the only motivating force towards climate action and how a post-apocalyptic reckoning with the catastrophe need not be a passivizing or depoliticizing narrative!
