Looking forward to this book reading, Claudia. Thank you for taking the initiative!

I'm a member of my local community's Sustainability Group. The most recent discussion we had was how to avoid this 'greenwashing problem' in the UK: https://www.independent.co.uk/climate-change/news/tesco-sainsbury-recycling-bags-burned-b2621769.html

It gets worse when you discover that, even though the UK has no more coal fired power stations, the rubbish we burn (including all the above plastic), is just as bad as coal: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp3wxgje5pwo

Its not just getting but definitely being hotter.

That's what was forefront of his mind as Rob Edwards got up, with not unsurprising difficulty given the wholesale assault of ague, creaks and decrepitude on his day by day advancing age.

He managed to pad, without falling, over the window...

Okay Claudia. Thank you. I sampled the opening chapter a little while back - was duly emotionally pulverised by realising the reality posited by its considered wording - but then, ranging forward was off put off reading much further on by the dull-fuck offered by its dull choice of taking readers into that dullest of all settings, aka Committee Land!

And here's my best, hopeful, projection: I'm about to download and will be aiming to read, in slow bites. the full text. I can't commit to contributing comments but don't be surprised, Claudia, if I manage to here and there.

Brilliant reading, airing and sharing project.

Bon chance Claudia.
