Reviews for The End of Ice

[violetbramble · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Jamail travels to various locales - the top of glaciers, the Great Barrier Reef, forests and coastal villages- to assess the effect of global warming on glaciers, trees, sea life, animals, and humans. His findings and those of the scientists he interviews indicate that the sixth extinction is well underway. And humans will be one of the species that is lost - and soon. Eye opening and frightening.
