On Our Minds: On the Frontlines of Climate Violence with Peter Schwartzstein

Peter Schwartzstein will discuss his book, The Heat and the Fury: On the Frontlines of Climate Violence. Drawing off more than a decade of reporting from roughly 30 countries, this book is the first ever attempt to explain the nature and extent of climate change’s contribution to global violence. By recounting the stories of the farmers, fighters, and regular families in the eye of this storm, as well as some of his own experiences in conflict zones, Peter lays bare the depth of the crisis––but also what can be done to rein it in.
