Lipsky’s book is a project of maximum ambition.
He retells the entire climate story, from the dawn of electricity to the dire straits of our present day.
We usually think of global warming as a modern malady, Lipsky writes, one that began in our lifetimes.
Of course, all the modern climate graphs show that the red line had crept up by then.
The book takes its title from two moments in time.
