• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Have you ever wondered what it will take to save the world? Annie has. But what can she do about it? Disaster and death have pushed Annie to her own personal tipping point. Her decision may be a little crazy, but perhaps that's what it will take to change the world.
Working as a teacher, Annie is confronted with issues that face the whole community. Her care for her students extends to fear for their future, but what can one person do? The death of her companion brings home the finality of extinction, and Annie can no longer avoid the voice that drives her to act - even if her choice of action is one that leads her friends to doubt her sanity.
This book explores some of the moral and ethical issues associated with global warming. We know what the problem is - why does it persist? Annie cannot understand why this is so, but she believes that there must always be hope.

Autorenporträt

I was born and raised in the suburbs of Melbourne, but my love of the Australian bush is part of the reason I now live beyond the fringes of the city. I have two daughters and a son (who all grew up one day when I blinked) but I haven't been able to consider having another pet since Spud died. We live in a community affected by the Black Saturday bushfires. You have to look for the silver linings - but my son doesn't agree with me that the destruction of his childhood plastic-crap collection falls into that category. When I hear of another community, somewhere in the world, that has been affected by yet another extreme natural disaster (symptomatic of our damaged climate) my heart bleeds for them.
