The powerful story of how Greta Thunberg and her family tackled their own crisis by taking on an even bigger one: the fate of our planet When Greta Thunberg was eleven, her parents Svante and Malena, and her little sister Beata, were facing a crisis in their own home. Greta had stopped eating and doctors were deeply concerned about her health. Her mother and father reconfigured their lives to care for her, while Greta and Beata struggled to cope. In the midst of this, Greta's desperate parents came to realize that there was another more pressing source of her distress: her imperiled future on a rapidly heating planet. Steered by Greta's determination to understand the truth and generate change, the family began to see the deep connections between their own suffering and the planet's. They discovered that their struggles at home could be healed by taking global action. And Greta, seeing that there were no gray areas when it comes to the survival of the planet, decided to go on strike from school, igniting a worldwide rebellion. Our House Is On Fire, co-written by a remarkable family of change-makers, is the story of how an unknown young girl in Sweden, with her family at her side, became the leader of a global movement.Titel: Our House Is on Fire : Scenes of a Family and a Planet in CrisisISBN: 9780143133575Bandtyp: HäftadSpråk: Engelska
