I was on Link TV a little while back, talking about Forecast. We covered the impact of climate change on Darfur and the Maldives and on the Arctic and discussed Obama’s Environmental Policies.

Still, don't miss Mooney's website, where he writes:
Stephan Faris’s Forecast is a journalistic take on glo...bal warming, the kind of book I might have liked to write myself with a better travel budget. It’s colorful, writerly, dispatched from the front lines. The key theme: In less stable parts of the world, global warming is the straw that breaks the camel’s back. It can tip fragile societies over the edge. And that’s already happening.

Forecast: The Consequences of Climate Change
The first reviews of Forecast have been . . . . . very complimentary!
Fred Pearce, writing in Orion Magazine (sadly the review isn't available online), says: "Well worth the carbon footprint of its publication … The most perceptive [book] so far about [climate change’s] growing place in our daily lives, our iconography,... and, sometimes, our paranoias."
In the American Prospect, Chris Mooney, author of storm world, does a good job of laying out what the book is about. The review itself is behind a paywall, but the first few grafs can be found on Mooney's website:
