Reviews
It's a pleasure to meet this fellow sufferer of Obsessive Climate Disorder; he's definitely funnier than most of us environmental types. -- Bill McKibben, founder of 350.org and author of The End of Nature
"Love in the Time of Climate Change has a lot of charm. Casey and Jesse are man-children in the style of a Judd Apatow film. Immature and obsessed with sex, they are basically innocent babes and they fight passionately for a better earth." - Tinky Weisblat, Greenfield Recorder -- Tinky Weisblat
"It's a climate change fiction novel that's kind of like an Adam Sandler or Will Ferrell romantic comedy but starring Seth Rogan and Jennifer Lawrence. Set on a community college campus, it has a bit of a feel of The Absent-Minded Professor or even The Nutty Professor for the cli-fi seta|This is a charming little book, a bit silly but entertaining in its goofiness. A recommended light read that many public libraries might find useful to add to their collections and even perhaps some academic libraries with leisure reading collections." - John Dupuis, Confessions of a Science Librarian
Given a thumbs-up by Bill McKibben, this down-to-earth, humorous novel is about an awkward teacher-in-love who is trying to raise climate change awareness among his U.S. students. Hilariously written and non-apologetically didactic, this novel gets the message across without making light of a very serious issue. - Mary Woodbury, Eco-fiction.com
