STOP SAVING THE PLANET! An Environmentalist Manifesto

Hillary Huber narrates this intrepid audiobook with controlled irony. Her plaintive interrogative tone highlights its striking critique on why so little has been achieved in five decades of battling climate change. She smoothly handles the many uses of "riddle me this," "duh," and "however" that ramp up the performance. The narration of this audiobook, subtitled "An Environmental Manifesto," is critical to its message. The listener is asked why governments and corporations have done so little for the planet and the poor. Despite LEED-certified corporate headquarters, the Apples and Exxons of the world still pollute our earth and waters and spew emissions. Price argues that we are asking the wrong question. It should be: What needs to be done? Not, what can I do? A.D.M. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2021]
